Riassunto

American Corrections: Theory, Research, Policy, and Practice is a comprehensive textbook containing both classic and cutting-edge contemporary data drawing from the fields of criminology, criminal justice, sociology, psychology, government, and public policy. This text broadly covers the relevant introductory topics of corrections to provide readers with a thorough understanding of the essential material to facilitate their education and interest in applied or academic careers in corrections. The hallmark of American Corrections: Theory, Research, Policy, and Practice is its position that the corrections domain is, in theory and practice, a system for risk management. By demonstrating that correctional systems balance public safety with providing effective treatment and supervision to offenders, this text tells the story of corrections within a coherent and applied framework.
