Description
While prison officials continue to hold enormous power over prisoners, since the late 1960s judicial decisions have begun to reflect an attempt to eliminate major prison abuses.
Topics covered include freedom from cruel and unusual punishment, due process, prison censorship, religious and racial discrimination, special concerns of women prisoners, medical care, rehabilitation, parole, and remedies and procedures for challenging conditions of confinement.
