The essays in this volume shed light on the ideological and practical challenges to charitable reform and the establishment of humane penal and mental health systems. Of particular insight is the shift toward scientifically informed approaches to social welfare and the recognition of social and environmental influences on human outcomes. This book will enthrall anyone interested in the history of social welfare, the evolution of humane and effective correctional systems, and the ongoing struggle to address these pressing social issues.
