For the past few years prisons have attracted much media attention,
due to substantial increases in the prison population and the
deteriorating conditions in which prisoners are held. In addition,
there has been industrial action by prison officers and a series of
disturbances and riots by prisoners.
Following the riot at Strangeways prison in Manchester in 1990
Lord Justice Woolf was called to conduct an inquiry into the riots
and their causes. Prisons After Woolf serves as a basic source of
information on prison issues and reviews them in the light of the
Woolf proposals. In so doing, its contributors, drawn from all
areas of the legal and prison system, present an important broad
perspective on the major questions in penology today.
