The early 21st century saw better prison conditions and a lower
imprisonment rate however public worry over supposed increasing
violent crime as perpetuated by the media in the 1930's led to a
return to harsher sentences and fuller prisons. Originally
published in 1933, The Lawbreaker analyses British penal methods of
the time and of the past to discover the most effective ways to
treat prisoners and reduce crime as well as identifying where more
research is needed to obtain a balance between punishment and
rehabilitation. This title will be of interest to students of
Criminology and Sociology.
