Summary:
"When Yosef Harish was appointed attorney general in 1986, the government expected and even demanded that he order the GSS investigation to be closed - but he insisted on continuing the investigation and on the other hand defended the president's authority to pardon GSS officials. The Beisky Committee recommended that the bank executives be prosecuted for regulating the shares; Harish checked and found that there was no deception in their actions; The High Court intervened, overturned his decision and ordered them to be prosecuted. After a long and expensive legal process - the mountain gave birth to a mouse, they were acquitted and it turned out that Harish was right. In the seven years of his tenure as ombudsman - justice, fairness and law, material considerations, balanced and value-based, and they alone. Without publicity and without populism, Harish stood firm in the face of pressure from politicians on the right and left, rabbis and rabbinates, the media, and sometimes even alone in front of the State Attorney's Office." -- Translation of back cover.

"כשמונה יוסף חריש לתפקיד היועץ המשפטי לממשלה ב-1986, הממשלה ציפתה ואף דרשה שיורה על סגירת חקירת השב"כ - אבל הוא התעקש על המשך החקירה ומנגד הגן על סמכות הנשיא לחון את בכירי השב"כ. ועדת בייסקי המליצה להעמיד לדין את מנהלי הבנקים באשמת ויסות המניות; חריש בדק ומצא שאין מרמה במעשיהם; בג"ץ התערב, פסל את החלטתו והורה להעמידם לדין. לאחר הליך משפטי ארוך ויקר - ההר הוליד עכבר, הם זוכו והתברר שחריש צדק. למרות לחצי ראש הממשלה רבין התעקש חריש על פיטורי אריה דרעי ורפאל פנחסי ועל העמדתו של דרעי לדין. את היתה דרכו בשבע שנות כהונתו כיועמ"ש - צדק, יושר ומשפט, שיקולים ענייניים, מאוזנים וערכיים, והם בלבד. ללא יח"צנות וללא פופוליזם, עמד חריש איתן אל מול לחצי הפוליטיקאים מימין ומשמאל, הרבנים והרבנות, התקשורת, ולעתים גם לבד מול הפרקליטות." -- Back cover.
