Synopsis

This study brings together the most recent findings of both experienced practitioners and social work researchers in Britain to demonstrate the diversity of options available within the probation services. Numerous possibilities and how they fit into the larger context of penal policy, are detailed. The essays target on such areas as: autocrime and driver retraining; intermediate treatment for offenders threatened by incarceration; options for problem drinkers; daytime training centres; and community work programs. Overall, while the choices vary greatly and are certain to prompt debate, the book does recommend that a flexible role for social workers and a community-based approach towards offenders offer the most promise.
