"These highly regarded authors have put together a particularly practical and essential resource for correctional practitioners who provide care to inmates in restrictive housing (RH). At a time of increased scrutiny and litigation, the guide and program model provide a clear and practical roadmap for tackling this challenging issue. The eResources (assessments, quizzes, etc.) and the accompanying inmate guide are a cornucopia of thoughtful and relevant handouts and activities to assist inmates to better manage their placement in RH and work towards eventual return to general population. I cannot recommend it more highly."Ralph Serin, PhD, C.Psych; professor, Department of Psychology; director, Criminal Justice Decision Making Laboratory, Carleton University"The overreliance on segregation to control prison populations has reached crisis proportions. While there is universal agreement to limit its use there have been few concrete proposals as to how to prevent inmates from entering segregation and once there, how to transition them back to regular prison life. In this treatment workbook Dr. Batastini and colleagues, the acknowledged experts in the area, present state of the art clinical strategies and an evaluation framework that will meet the above goals. Their work is necessary reading for anyone concerned with the humane care of inmates."Paul Gendreau O.C.,PhD; professor emeritus, University of New Brunswick
