The Inmate Prison Experience by Craig Hemmens (Paperback - Illustrated)

This book deals with a subject that is most timely-the United States today incarcerates more people than any other industrialized country in the world. The incarceration rate is growing rapidly, and minorities are disproportionately represented among correctional populations. This book provides a comprehensive examination of who the inmates are and what prison does to them, and places it in a historical context with the use of both recent and older research on the subject.

This collection of articles deals with one component of corrections-the inmate prison experience. By "inmate prison experience" the authors mean the impact of prison on inmates. How does living in prison affect people? This book is intended to serve as a reader for courses in corrections. It is comprised of selected articles, all of which focus on how inmates adjust to prison, and the factors, which influence this adjustment.

The Lesbian History Sourcebook by Alison Oram (Paperback - Routledge)

Covering a 100 year period, this book looks at women who loved other women, had sex with other women, who cross-dressed and who resisted heterosexuality. It is a search for lesbianism in the past, centering on women's sexual practices and feelings and their deviance from gender role norms of femininity.
Lesbian History is based on original and contemporary sources, both private and those of public concern including legal cases and journalism. They range from official government publications, professional journals and newspapers to fiction, poetry, personal papers and ephemera. Here is an essential overview of lesbians in history from the end of the nineteenth century through the 1970s when the women's liberation movement began to take hold Lesbian History is a welcome resource that fills the gap in the existing literature.

Social Work Practice With Refugee And Immigrant Youth In The United States by Melvin Delgado (Paperb
The first book to address this growing population group whose situation presents social work practitioners with a number of opportunities and challenges.

Social-cultural developments within the U.S. in the last decade have witnessed the emergence of two distinct and yet potentially beneficial trends: the influx of immigrant and refugee youth and the popularity of youth development as a paradigm and field of practice. Social Work Practice with Refugee and Immigrant Youth in the United States puts the newcomer experience into context and provides a guide for social workers developing interventions using a youth development paradigm.

Highlights of This First Edition:

  • The authors' use of a youth development paradigm as an organizing theoretical orientation increases the applicability of this text for social work practice.
  • Cases and examples in every chapter discuss the rewards and challenges associated with youth development and immigrant youth, and provide examples of successful programs.
  • Chapter-opening quotes, chapter introductions, and illustrative charts help provide students with a conceptual understanding of working with newcomer youth.
