This collection of short essays on prisons and the larger society in common sense terms tells us what our civic and national pride refuses to believe, that criminals are not simply social misfits who resist the civilizing effects of American culture: rather, American culture produces the conditions in which crime and violence flourish. To see hope restored to those corners of America where it has long been presumed extinct; to offer practical and potentially successful means of dealing with the problems of crime and drug use; and to encourage a rapprochement between alienated groups in American society; these are his ultimate ambitions echoing through the pages.
