Aiming to bridge the gap between academia and practice, Johnson (criminology, U. of West Georgia) brings together criminal justice, criminology, and sociology scholars from the US who have practical experience in corrections to describe, in 17 essays, theoretical and methodological concepts and approaches to practice for practitioners and students in general corrections courses. The essays are in the form of first-person narratives and use real-world experiences to detail practice in the areas of incarceration and community and juvenile corrections, with discussion of conditions, situations, and solutions to specific problems while working in prisons and prison systems, juvenile residential corrections, and probation and parole. Topics include operations; services such as mental health care, therapy and counseling, and treatment programs and education; interpersonal relationships; workplace stress and coping; personal journeys and self-discovery; connections to larger social issues; and corrections history.
