"Doing Time provides an introduction to some of the main sociological debates associated with imprisonment. It incorporates a review of a wide range of material on imprisonment and is designed to acquaint students, researchers and practitioners with the literature on the subject." "Beginning with a historical examination of the emergence of the modern prison, the book examines the developments on incarceration over the last century and a half."--Jacket.
