Corrections in the 21st Century builds on the twin themes of evidence-based corrections and professionalism in corrections.  Corrections professionalism has garnered support from policymakers and respect from the public. Building on these critical foundations, the text examines contemporary real-world correctional practice, explores opportunities represented by new and developing corrections technologies, and points the students in the direction of the still-emerging ideal of corrections professionalism to equip them with the career skills needed to succeed in the field today. There is a thorough description of both traditional and progressive correctional ideology and a comprehensive overview of correctional practice, paired with a focus on the development of personal and social skills applicable to the corrections field. 


A foreword by Ryan Thornell, Director of the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation, and Reentry, provides a thought-provoking introduction to the text.
