Gordon Bazemore's writing is easy-to-read while maintaining a depth and breath of his subject. This book is made for anyone who is already familiar with the concepts of retorative justice and wants to go deeper into the process. He covers the foundations, stakeholders and organizational roles, and practices. The case studies and sources he quotes are most useful to understanding the principles of restorative justice that he develops. A must for anyone seaching to improve our current retributive justice system while strengthening families and communities.

I hated this book. Absolutely hated it. It is an absolute drag to read. There are zero concrete facts, statistics, or anything for that matter. It is a philosophy book, nothing more. I am a grad student and have to read a lot, but when it comes to this book I always have a hard time.
