Recenzii
"Probation has been massively changed (or vandalised, more accurately) in the six short years since Canton’s book first appeared. This timely new edition retains and builds upon the virtues of the first edition – a knowledgeable review of policy, practice and evidence across the spectrum of probation work, while reflecting on the ‘transformation’ wrought by reforms of recent years. It will be a valuable resource for students, for probation officers in training and for academics – me, for one."
- Graham Smyth, Senior Lecturer, Department of Sociology, Manchester Metropolitan University
"This is a timely second edition of Probation. Canton and Dominey provide a clear-sighted account of a radically changed probation landscape in England and Wales since the reforms introduced under Transforming Rehabilitation. Their careful consideration of policy and practice makes this an essential read for all interested in community sanctions and criminal justice."
- Nicola Carr, Associate Professor in Criminology, School of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Nottingham
"This second issue of Probation provides a wonderfully detailed critical reflection of the development of probation services both nationally and internationally. Canton and Dominey are both eminent writers on the probation service and this volume is testament as to why this is the case. The book provides a timely and extremely valuable overview of probation work, contemporary debates the links between policy and practice. It is a must read for anyone interested in probation."
