Open Prisons (Routledge Library Editions: Prison And Prisoners)

Originally published in 1977, Open Prisons presents research carried out in a number of prisons in the UK both 'open' and 'closed' intended to compare their effectiveness. Information was collected from inmates and prison staff through a number of exercises designed to assess the social atmosphere of the prison and how they felt about it. The book finishes with a chapter which discusses the policy implications of their findings. Today it can be read in its historical context.
