This book is very unoriginal. It is very simplistic and coins terms that even a 13 year old is familiar with i.e. antibacterial soap- this is not a term that was developed in prison, contrary to the intentions of the writer who contends that this dictionary will give guards insight into the lingo discussed in prison. Moreover, this book is not the first of it kind see Angela Devline's ,Prison Patter: A dictionary of Prison Words and Slangs and Gary K. Farlow's Prison-Ese: A Survivor's guide to Prison Slang both released in 1996 and 2002 respectively.
