Probation And Parole: Theory And Practice Book

Always fun to read a textbook. This one had NO pictures and, in this day and age, that amounts to a gargantuan college essay. blech. Dated material, because it was first written in 1977--just about forty years ago.

In defense of the material, it probably covers most of what we need to know about probation and parole--written in scholarly prose and included some interesting tidbits, highlighted with gray lines.

It occurs to me that these authors might have included a first-hand view from the parolees and probationers themselves. Always looking from the outside in becomes boring and tedious.
