Book Synopsis Handbook on Prisons by : Yvonne Jewkes

Download or read book Handbook on Prisons written by Yvonne Jewkes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 810 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the most comprehensive and ambitious book on prisons to have been published, a key text for anybody studying the subject and an essential work of reference for practitioners working in prisons and other parts of the criminal justice system. It is especially timely in view of the many changes and debates about the role of prisons and their future organisation and management as part of the National Offender Management Service. A key aim of the book is to explore a wide range of historical and contemporary issues relating to prisons, imprisonment and prison management, and to chart likely future trends. Chapters in the book are written by leading scholars in the field, and reflect the range and depth of prison research and scholarship. Like the Handbook of Policing and Handbook of Crime Prevention and Community Safety the Handbook on Prisons will be the essential book on the subject.
