American Corrections

Introduce students to the dynamics of the correctional system in the U.S. today with the fascinating, current content and balanced approach in Clear/Reisig/Cole's market-leading AMERICAN CORRECTIONS, 13E. Engaging discussions, actual cases with familiar names, first-hand insights from those in the system and career overviews immediately capture readers' interest and encourage careers in the field. This trusted resource highlights the latest facts and figures as well as new developments impacting correctional policy and practice in the U.S., such as COVID-19 and the rising use of methamphetamines and opioids. The authors provide an unbiased treatment of institutional and community sanctions as this well-rounded introduction examines the U.S. correctional system from the perspectives of both the corrections worker and the accused person. MindTap digital resources offer teaching support and interactive learning tools, video cases and career scenarios to strengthen understanding.
