To an Antipodean, this book is at first a fascinating development
of the New Zealand Prison System which includes the history of
penology prior to the phenomenon coming to these shores. However,
this book is not only a history: it is also an exploration of more
complex managerial and social issues concerning crime and its
treatment, including the interweaving of different penal policies
that have brought us to where we are now. In this revised and
enlarged edition, it draws on the reactions of many people
imprisoned for reasons other than their criminality. By doing that
it throws fresh light on the reactions of mankind in general to the
loss of liberty. As a result, it raises psychological issues of
isolation in all kinds of confinement, captivity, and deprivation
that will appeal to everyone who is trying to grapple with the
administrative, clinical, legal, and moral problems they create.
