| Description: |
The federal Prison for Women in Kingston, a penitentiary characterized as 'unfit for bears, much less women', closed in 2000. This book charts the development of the prisons that replaced it. It questions the notion that prisons can 'heal' and punish and suggests that the power of 'the prison' triumphs over the good intentions of reformers. |
| Synopsis: |
A provocative contribution to the debate on how we should deal with women prisoners |
