Willan Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-84392-093-9 (ISBN)
As the number of prisoners in the UK, USA and elsewhere continues to rise, so have concerns risen about the damaging short term and long term effects this has on prisoners. This book brings together a group of leading authorities in this field, both academics and practitioners, to address the complex issues this has raised, to assess the implications and results of research in this field, and to suggest ways of mitigating the often devastating personal and psychological consequences of imprisonment.
Alison Liebling is Professor of Criminology at the Institute of Criminology, Cambridge University. Shadd Maruna is Professor of Justice and Human Development at the School of Law, Queen's University Belfast.
