Future of Crime and Punishment: Smart Policies for Reducing Crime and Saving Money

By William R Kelly

Book Overview

With recidivism rates north of 70% and tens of billions of dollars wasted annually on policies that assume we can punish the crime out of criminal offenders, America's fixation with "tough on crime" has been an utter failure. William R. Kelly lays out a roadmap for how to effectively reduce recidivism, crime, victimization and cost.
