Prisons Today and Tomorrow, Second Edition uses current case studies and research to present balanced and comprehensive coverage of prisons and prisoners. Featuring chapters contributed by leading authorities on the modern prison system, this text examines the many purposes of prisons—punishment, deterrence, rehabilitation, and incapacitation—and examines controversial issues such as whether imprisonment actually deters crime or merely serves as punishment.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good textbook for a current class,

This review is from: Prisons Today And Tomorrow (Criminal Justice Illuminated) (Hardcover)
I currently have a class on corrections and penology. This is a good supplement to the class. However, I do notice the professor (a police officer) tends to add a lot more and elaborate on the book, leading me to wonder if it's lacking. Do have to realize that police officers have a lot of first hand experience that can't be relayed into a book, though. I wouldn't recommend this for reading on a whim - to be honest, it would be quite boring. However, it's very informative - exactly what a textbook should be.
