The author notes that since the inception of this classic text, the criminal justice system has been plagued by buzz words and "get tough on crime" mandates that require new interpretations for students. To that end, Abadinsky offers the same "insiders" view of probation and parole issues, administration, juvenile courts, investigation, and supervision while defining indeterminate sentences and the latest developments in treatment theory.
