Reviews

'This book brings together a range of authors to 'problematize' a topic which, too often, is treated as an orthodoxy. It needs to be compulsory reading on probation training courses, and I would certainly recommend it to students.' - Professor Mike Nash, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, University of Portsmouth, UK
