By James McGuire, David Flegg, Philip Priestley

'Gate fever' is the name of a non-medical syndrome said to infect men in prison as the date of their discharge draws near. The primary aim of this book, originally published in 1984, is to describe and promote social-skills-based methods for helping offenders cope better with the problems they face in the community.
