An unprecedented dialogue between a long-term federal prisoner and a senior prison official reveals how America’s carceral system scars everyone it touches.
No One Gets Out Unscarred argues that the prison system fails not only those it incarcerates, but also the staff who work inside it and the communities to which most will return. Rather than opposing prisoners and correctional officers, it shows how their lives are shaped by the same punitive culture, institutional incentives, and political decisions.
At its center is an extraordinary exchange between two men on opposite sides of the bars: Robert Barton, incarcerated since adolescence in high-security federal prisons, and Jack Donson, a retired Bureau of Prisons official who rose from correctional officer to case manager. Drawn from more than fifty hours of interviews, their interwoven accounts reveal a system that brutalizes prisoners while eroding staff morale, health, and judgment.
Moving beyond exposés and redemption narratives, the book examines the everyday mechanics of incarceration—lockdowns, restrictive housing, medical neglect, mental-health failures, broken grievance systems, and the hollow promise of rehabilitation—through lived experience on both sides.
Rejecting both abolitionist polemic and law-and-order defenses, it asks a pragmatic question: if more than 95 percent of incarcerated people will return home, what kind of prison system actually serves society?

The Case Against America's Prison System, From Both Sides of the Wall

No One Gets Out Unscarred

This outstanding textbook offers a comprehensive overview of organized crime groups around the world, combining theoretical perspectives with real-world examples from across the globe.

An Introduction

The Penal System

Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics

This book explores the connections between punishment theory and punishment practice It shines a much-needed light on the relation between how punishment is experienced by those subjected to it (and others), and the more general consideration of what justifies punishment in the first place. Leading experts in the field weigh up what is appropriate punishment - both in quantitative and in non-quantitative ways. It explains why punishment is so difficult to justify, looks at the compatibility of modes and processes of penal sanctions, and explore how best to achieve the aspiration to set reasonable terms for future coexistence through state punishment. The book addresses key topics such as life imprisonment, what is at stake when we use prisons to punish, and how criminal offenders can be successfully integrated into society. It considers how we know whether we over-punish offenders, what we should do in response to excessive punishment, and the possibility of replacing punitive systems with non-punitive ones. Overall, the book makes a groundbreaking contribution to the philosophy of punishment, explicitly connecting general, abstract questions about the moral and political justification of punishment with empirical insight into the realities and experiences of punishment practices.

Punishment Theory Meets Punishment Practice

Navigating Tensions from Control to Transformation

Project Resilience

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERThe world's criminals earn trillions every year. They keep almost all of it. Every effort to stop them has failed. Why? Join Oliver Bullough through the looking glass, voyaging through the dark heart of the global economy: where flows of dirty banknotes, designer goods and baby eels prop up illicit networks spanning from Miami to Shanghai - via, strangely, North Oxfordshire. Cryptocurrencies flow through ledgers that would look familiar to a fifteenth-century Florentine banker. Casinos, lottery tickets and government ignorance all power the merry-go-round of dirty money. And it all works brilliantly. Better than ever. There has never been a better time to be a criminal. It's time that changed.

The Secret Life of Dirty Money

Everybody Loves Our Dollars

This book offers fresh perspectives on the role of addiction in prior fault culpability by integrating legal, psychological, neuroscientific and philosophical dimensions. Are intoxicated defendants responsible for harms they cause to persons and property when intoxicated? Should they be criminally liable for those harms, even if they act without intention or control? What if their intoxicated state is associated with addiction? Analysing the complex interactions between addiction, intoxication and law, prior fault is addressed from various jurisdictions including predominantly England and Wales, Scotland, and the Netherlands, while also incorporating multiple disciplines, thereby discussing prior fault structures from overarching, non-jurisdictional perspectives. These different disciplines and legal systems are not merely described but closely integrated through co-authored chapters, involving academics from different disciplinary fields and legal traditions. This collection is a thorough resource for students, academics, researchers, and practising lawyers who aim to deepen their understanding of the law's approach towards addiction and intoxication. Moreover, it illustrates the importance of a collaborative approach between different legal traditions and interdisciplinary scientific understanding, thereby laying the groundwork for future legal reforms, informed legal practice, and research.

Criminal Law and Prior Fault

Using an aesthetic culture and techniques termed as jihadi cool, terrorist groups have been able to recruit members from around the world, so how do we begin to respond? This book analyzes the rhetorical and ethical dynamics of a culture of jihadi cool/chic, and why these rhetorical and aesthetic techniques have been such a powerful recruitment force for particular transnational terrorist groups. The author uses an evidence-based approach, with frameworks derived from law, politics, philosophy, rhetoric, feminist theory, and communication studies, to examine various attempts to construct counter-narratives to the jihadi cool master narrative. The book closes with an examination of how to begin to respond critically and effectively to the lure of jihadi cool.

Multiphysics: Advances and Applications

Thermoforming Modeling and Simulation: A Multiphysics Approach concentrates on the modeling and optimization of thermoforming, as well as identifying the structural behavior of thermoplastics used for thermoforming. The book demonstrates the expertise gained through industrial and academic projects in technical transfer. It also illustrates the research and development skills in experimental and numerical modeling of thermoforming. The problem of identifying laws of behavior from experimental data (rheological or mechanical tests in large deformations), using algorithms such as neural networks, is also addressed. Through its multiphysics content, this book is helpful for researchers, teachers and industrialists interested in new advances in thermoforming (characterization of materials, modeling and optimization).

This book draws on research and experience in occupational health and safety to address a fundamental question: what separates a near miss incident from an accident that results in injury? Through analysis of workplace events, the author proposes that fortuity and luck are the key factors determining accident outcomes. Building on the CECAL (Cause, Effect, and Control of Accidental Loss) model introduced in 2000, the book explores the three 'Luck Factors' that intervene in undesired events, offering a fresh perspective on accident outcomes.This title provides the insights and tools needed to transform your perspective on workplace safety. With real-life examples, including the NASA Columbia disaster and United Airlines Flight 232, it challenges traditional safety metrics and introduces innovative concepts such as the Safety Fear Factor. It explains why measuring safety performance through injury rates is flawed, as these metrics often reflect luck rather than control. Readers will gain practical guidance on implementing proactive Safety Management Systems (SMS) to recognize, assess, and rectify near miss incidents, empowering them to prevent accidents effectively rather than relying on chance.The Safety Luck Factors: The Fortuity Elements that Influence Accident Outcomes is essential for safety professionals, workplace managers, and anyone involved in occupational health and safety.
