Introduction to Corrections provides students with an understanding of basic concepts in the field of corrections. The book offers comprehensive coverage of both institutional and community corrections, with particular emphasis on the perspective of the practitioner. Students taking corrections classes often have wild misconceptions about prison work and the corrections environment - misconceptions typically derived from movies and the news, and even current textbooks. In this new text, Robert Hanser uses his own on-the-ground experience to colorfully explain how the corrections system actually works, and what′s it′s like to be a part of it. A practioner, scholar, and experienced teacher whose research has focused on gangs, domestic violence, and corrections, Hanser introduces students to the correctional worker′s complex world of sub-cultural norms, the impact of prisoner classification and assessment, and both the theory and legal elements affecting corrections systems today.

Stan Davidson, restaurateur, teams up with his old army buddy who heads up FBI's Atlanta office to solve the murders of three federal prison wardens. Two parallel plots involve drug money and land schemes extorting the mayor of Savannah. The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) serves as the backdrop for this mystery thriller as Thomas Pierson is on the take for placing crooked wardens in federal prisons to mastermind his global, terrorist plot to cripple the U.S.'s intelligence community. Pierson plots the escape of four cons, who assist him in Operation Black Widow, to sabotage an orbital satellite, instigate a nuclear disaster in south Texas, destroy peace talks in the Middle East, and threaten U.S. relations with Taiwan and China. Scenery includes Georgia's barrier islands of Tybee, Saint Simons, and Jekyll. The personalities of the islanders provide an interesting cast of characters: the trustees, the moochers, old and new money, scam artists, drunks and druggies.

Despite the fact that 160,000 people are locked up in our federal correctional facilities, practical information about the federal prison system remains difficult to locate. While some information may be found scattered on the Internet, in directions given at court, or through shared personal experience, there is no single source available that is a collection of all available information. The U.S. Federal Prison System is the first comprehensive reference work that includes official prison policies, first-person accounts from prisoners, and information about each federal facility.

The book also contains valuable Appendices that give a thorough listing and description of all Federal prison facilities, as well as the services and charities available to prisoners and their families. With the publication of this book there will finally be an up-to-date, comprehensive reference on the
