The eighth edition includes a few new learning aids, and incorporates new theory and concerns. Like its predecessors, this edition balances historical and contemporary coverage, theory and practice, and the views of criminal justice scholars, corrections facility personnel, and inmates. Frank discussions of some of the more difficult issues such as whether to provide condoms, or let inmates have bleach for sterilizing needles allow students to view some realities of corrections in America.
