Corrections: A Text/Reader
Description:
SAGE Congratulates Mary Stohr on receiving the 2009 Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences Founder's Award for outstanding contributions to criminal justice education and ACJS!
Corrections: A Text/Reader provides the best of both worlds- authored text sections with carefully selected accompanying readings that illustrate the questions and controversies surrounding the punishment, treatment, supervision, and management of individuals who have been accused of or convicted of criminal offenses. The articles, from leading journals in criminology and criminal justice, reflect both classic studies and state-of-the-art research, and often have a policy perspective that makes them more applied, less theoretical, and more interesting to both undergraduate and graduate students.
