Case Studies in Corrections
Case Studies in Corrections invites the reader to analyze hypothetical situations confronted by judges, probation officers, inmates, correctional officers, counselors, clerics, and administrators. Concise but thorough introductions to each section provide background for assessing the scenarios. Thought-provoking questions stimulate reflection about possible courses of action and the potential consequences of choices made. The Sixth Edition encourages an interactive approach whether rethinking effective punishment, analyzing the role of the community in corrections, or addressing ethical and legal issues. Titles of related interest also available from Waveland Haas-Alpert, The Dilemmas of Multidisciplinary Perspectives, Fifth Edition (ISBN 9781577663980); Olson Jessie, On the Serving Time in a Women's Correctional Facility (ISBN 9781478638209); and Quinn, A Concise Introduction, Second Edition (ISBN 9781577662464).
