5.0 out of 5 stars Last One Over the Wall: The Massachusetts Experiment ..., June 12, 2001
By 
Ann Cameron Williams (Prospect Heights, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Last One Over the Wall: The Massachusetts Experiment in Closing Reform Schools (Paperback)
Dr. Miller's perspective of the events surrounding the reform of juvenile justice in the Commonwealth amplifies the complications that politics have on doing the right things for the right reasons. His description of the criminality of institutions shows the side of "justice" that is not often seen - his style of writing is engaging and incisive, with no apologies for calling it as he sees it. I heartily recommend this book for anyone wishing to gain insight into juvenile justice issues within a political framework.
