Reviews

""This work provides an interesting historical perspective on some of the most recurring and controversial issues in corrections (i.e. drug and alcohol treatment, conjugal visits, recidivism, and rehabilitation). Glaser develops these with current comparisons that allow the reader to appreciate not only the way things have changed, but the way things remain the same. Throughout these discussions, the author adds interesting comments on the personal side of McGee. This is perhaps what makes the work so enjoyable to read.""-Marilyn D. McShane, California State University
