As a pioneer of carceral geography, Dominique Moran has provided a must-read introduction to the field. Erudite, thought-provoking and tremendously readable, this book will enrich studies of the prison within and beyond geography.' Yvonne Jewkes, University of Leicester, UK 'Carceral spaces are proliferating and Dominique Moran provides an indispensable toolkit to apprehend this development. Drawing on state of the art geographical concepts and contemporary debates she expertly defines and establishes the sub-discipline of carceral geography in this book. She also sets out the agenda for the coming years by raising indispensable questions about discipline, mobility and spectacle.' Nick Gill, University of Exeter, UK 'If Dominique Moran did not perhaps singlehandedly invent the field of carceral geography, she has with this book undoubtedly produced the authoritative guide to it. Always one step ahead, Moran offers here a breathtakingly expansive, ecumenical study of prisons, punishment, space, and architecture - an indispensable manual on geographies of incarceration including a peek into the post-prison . Terrific book for our troubled times.' Karen M. Morin, Bucknell University, USA 'For law and courts readers interested in migration and imprisonment from a human geography angle, this wide-ranging book has many interesting case study nuggets and a wealth of theoretically interesting angles to offer ...'
