Unbiased and accessible, the text includes coverage of the history of corrections; careers; alternatives to incarceration; probation and parole; race, ethnicity, and gender issues in corrections; re-entry into the community; and more. The goals of this book are to be accessible intellectually to students from a variety of backgrounds and degrees of preparation; to flow from one chapter to the next and for the book to "tell a story"; to present the broad sweep of the corrections component to students who may or may not end up working in corrections; and consistently focused on the most recent material available. 4aSocial Policy 4aLaw and Legislation0 aL.
