4.0 out of 5 stars Sufficient textbook about Modern Penal theory, July 18, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I used this book for course titled "Corrections and Society."

- The book gives you an explanation and look into some of the history of a topic before going into some of the current issues. I think it does a good job giving you what you need to know about precedents and origins.

- Although several parts were interesting, I found myself engulfed into too much information at certain parts of the book.

Bottom line: This is a sufficient book for a course about corrections systems. A thorough look into theories and issues in the prison systems and penal theory.
