He looks at the scale and social distribution of such mass supervision, the processes by which it has been legitimated, and how it is experienced by those subject to it. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) * An immensely readable account that is compassionate, empathetic, and humane - yet sharply observed and deeply critical - Professor David Garland, New York University, USA Deserves to be widely read by scholars, students and policy makers - Dr Gwen Robinson, University of Sheffield, UK Remarkable and ground-breaking...this singular work will challenge your understanding of punishment as well as your views about the limitations of academic work - Professor Shadd Maruna, Queen's University Belfast, UK Brings to life the deep harms of supervision and how we might reconfigure it to create more justice for individuals and our communities - Dr Michelle S.
