Bad medicine : a judge's struggle for justice in a First Nations community / by John Reilly.
"Bad Medicine is an insider's look at the failure of the justice system in its dealings with Aboriginal lawbreakers. [The author] spares no one in his belief that a different and non-racist approach would serve First Nations more effectively. He makes a compelling case for "good" medicine to replace the "bad"." --back cover [Catherine Ford]
