INTRODUCTION TO CORRECTIONS<br />
American Corrections<br />
Theory, Research, Policy, and Practice<br />
Matt DeLisi, PhD, Iowa State University<br />
Peter J. Conis, PhD, Iowa State University<br />
This comprehensive resource provides both classic and cutting-edge data on<br />
correctional topics drawing from the fields of criminology, criminal justice,<br />
sociology, psychology, government, and public policy. The hallmark of<br />
American Corrections: Theory, Research, Policy, and Practice is its thesis—<br />
that the American criminal justice system, particularly the corrections<br />
domain, is in theory and practice a system for the management of risk. By<br />
demonstrating that correctional systems balance public safety with providing<br />
treatment and supervision to offenders, this text tells the story of corrections<br />
within a coherent, criminological framework.<br />
