|aWe have all seen the many television dramas and movies about criminals and prisons, but the real world of incarcerations remains hidden from most people s experience. This book explores the realities of overcrowding, disease, violence, and abuse in prison institutions. It considers multiple perspectives from social scientists, victims, and prison workers to the prisoners themselves. This look behind the bars of North America s incarceration facilities is often disturbing, but the issues are well-documented and thought provoking.The Treatment of Prisoners and Prison Conditions shows the tough realities, offering a balanced view on some of the most vital issues confronting society today and some of the solutions that have been proposed to address them.PUBLISHER S NOTE: Each title in this series contains a foreword from the Associate Dean of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice, color photos throughout, charts, and back matter that includes an index and further resource lists of books and Internet resources.
