Product details
Description
Introduction to Penology and Corrections offers the best of two worlds, covering the practical matters that jail and prison administrators face, along with the theories behind punishment and the management of correctional facilities.
Introduction to Penology and Corrections by experienced author Laura Pinto Hansen combines the study of punishment alongside corrections, balancing the perspectives of academics, practitioners, and prisoners. In addition, the text includes cross-cultural, cross-national views in punishment and corrections, as well as real-life stories from professionals in corrections, family members of the accused/incarcerated, and prisoners. While taking into consideration the practical matters that jail and prison administrators and staff face, this comprehensive text also explores the theories behind punishment and the management of correctional facilities.
Professors and students will benefit from: Comprehensive review of philosophies and history of punishment, both in the United States and elsewhere in the world. Each chapter includes Stories from Behind Bars and International Perspectives designed to offer an inclusive view of the culture of punishment through the eyes of staff and prisoners. Introduction to a wide variety of potential careers in the field of corrections today, including the perceptions and realities of these jobs. Current social justice issues surrounding criminal justice and corrections are spotlighted. Comparisons of male and female detainees and inmates, along with the challenges that the transgender population face while incarcerated. Medical and mental health issues, including those that have been particularly challenging in corrections during the COVID-19 pandemic, are highlighted. Learning objectives and key terms with definitions in each chapter help students understand new concepts.

Shipping & Returns
-

Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
