When Brute Force Fails: How to Have Less Crime and Less Punishment
Mark A. R. Kleiman
Since the crime explosion of the 1960s, the prison population in the United States has multiplied fivefold, to one prisoner for every hundred adults - a rate unprecedented in American history and unmatched anywhere in the world. This book explains how we got into the trap and how we can get out of it: to cut both crime and the prison population.
