'This collection of essays is primarily concerned with the position, place and processes of the "Therapeutic Community" (TC) within the Prison estate of England and Wales. This book is a welcome contribution to discussions about prison as a human(e) environment. It recognises that security and "treatment" (in a wide range of interpretations of this word) do not have to be considered to be competing demands on the prison resources.'
