Recensioner i media

"This is a timely book that relies on data driven evidence to explore the effect of mass incarceration, whether or not it is over and how It has impacted crime rates. The writing style is strong and will keep students engaged. I think that my undergraduate students would benefit immensely from a book that relies on data driven facts and uses a problem-based approach to researching solutions to the problems the correctional system faces." Jennifer Cobbina, iMichagan State University
