Recenzii

'As someone who has considerable experience of the everyday realities of prison life, to me this book was compelling. I found it to be both stimulating and illuminating, and I have learned a lot from reading it. Certainly if more people had a grasp of its contents, there would be a much more informed debate on the subject. There really should be a copy in every Governor's boardroom and prison library in the land.' – Ian Macfadyen Inspector, HM Inspectorate of Prisons
'[T]his book undoubtedly provides a succinct and thorough account of the contentious issues that continue to equally concern academics, human rights lawyers and practitioners in the criminal justice field.' – Rose Parkes, De Montfort University
