Moreover, unlike standard textbooks, <i>Key Issues in Corrections</i>, because of the way it is researched, written, and organized is easy to build a course around. The problems and solutions approach will facilitate classroom discussion, and provide the opportunity to integrate supplementary articles that would allow for further reading."--Rick Jones, Marquette University, coauthor of "Doing Time: Prison Experience and Identity Among First-Time Inmates"<br><br>"This is one corrections textbook where the author takes the reader inside the fence and behind the wall and does not candy coat the truth. Ross writes with eyes wide open."--Stephen C.
