Overview

This book offers a first-hand view of complexities and challenges within the field of corrections. Personal stories, policy insights, and professional reflections based on the author's extensive experiences intertwine to give a candid look at the correctional landscape. The author delves into the evolution of Ohio's corrections system, addressing prison management, politics, security, nepotism, race, and gender. The storyline chronicles unionization, conflict between security and treatment staff, and justice equity. The book highlights how Ohio's visionary prison administrators led the nation in addressing prison recidivism, critical incident management, victims services, and provision of mental health and medical services. Concurrently, chapters scrutinize the role of religion in prisons, the death penalty, and privatization. Dr. Rose provides unique perspectives on America's efforts at nation building through its creation of Iraq's prison system. A Career in Corrections is well-suited for courses related to criminal justice, criminology, sociology, public administration, and correctional counseling.
