In Imperfect,
Jonathan Hussey — author of Reoffending and the Probation Workbook
series — offers a compelling and unflinching memoir of his two decades
working within the Criminal Justice System.
Spanning his early years
in adult probation to his time in youth justice and through the
turbulent rollout of Transforming Rehabilitation, Jonathan reflects on
the wide range of individuals he has worked with — from repeat offenders
and sex offenders to young people on the cusp of change. With honesty
and insight, he explores not just the professional challenges but the
emotional toll the job can take if not managed correctly, pulling back
the curtain on the mental health pressures that working in probation can
bring about.
Imperfect
is more than a personal story — it’s a reflective, eye-opening guide
for those considering a career in probation, current practitioners
navigating a complex system, or anyone drawn to the realities behind one
of society’s most demanding and misunderstood public service roles.
Blending personal narrative with professional reflection, Jonathan
captures both the frustrations and the redemptive power of working with
complex individuals.
Thought-provoking, honest, and deeply human, Imperfect
is essential reading for anyone interested in probation careers,
offender rehabilitation, criminal justice in general, or the personal
impact of frontline public service work.
