Excellent Anthology,

This review is from: The Oxford History of the Prison: The Practice of Punishment in Western Society (Paperback)
The Oxford History of the Prison - The Practice of Punishment in Western Society is an excellent compendium of essays chronicaling the practice of punishment from Ancient to Medieval times and today.
I highly recommend this history for anyone interested in the history of what is today called "incarceration" in our society. It brings to light the changing attitudes and ideals of what constitutes punishment (and crime).
