There has long been a great need for a book which takes a careful and informative look at prisons in England and Wales. But problems of access have inhibited all but the most persistent writers - until now. Mark Leech, a prisoner and acclaimed writer, has compiled a comprehensive guide toprisons in England and Wales which will be invaluable to anyone concerned with prisons, particularly prisoners and their families. As well as providing a core prison-by-prison guide compiled using reports from H. M. Inspector of Prisons and questionnaires completed by both prisoners and staff, the book also offers advice on useful organizations, legal rights, disciplinary matters, health, finance, race discrimination, how tostart your sentence, complaints and requests, discharge grants, release, women prisoners, and young offenders.

Are more people being imprisoned throughout the world? Why is imprisonment still being used on a wide scale when an increasing number of alternatives are available? What are the major developments in prison law in the last decade? What problems arise in prison systems when states become constitutional democracies for the first time? Should prisons be privatized? How can prison conditions and prisoners' rights be improved? What special measures should there be for women, juveniles, violent offenders or drug addicts in prison? What programmes work effectively under which conditions? The second edition of "Imprisonment Today and Tomorrow" presents much fresh information in its attempts to provide answers to these and other crucial questions. It provides authoritative accounts by leading national experts on the place of imprisonment in 26 penal systems of major countries throughout the world. In addition, through the chapters on the work of the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman and Degrading Punishment, non-governmental organizations and the United Nations, it sheds new light on international initiatives to promote prison standards. These are complemented by a comparative survey of world prison populations and a final chapter in which the editors evaluate developments described in this volume and elsewhere in order to arrive at conclusions about international trends and to make well-grounded proposals for prison reform.

The aim of each volume of this series Guides to Information Sources is to reduce the time which needs to be spent on patient searching and to recommend the best starting point and sources most likely to yield the desired information. The criteria for selection provide a way into a subject to those new to the field and assists in identifying major new or possibly unexplored sources to those who already have some acquaintance with it. The series attempts to achieve evaluation through a careful selection of sources and through the comments provided on those sources.
