Book Description
This book examines how young men between the ages of 18 and 21 adapt practically, socially and psychologically to prison life. Based on extensive research in Feltham Young Offenders Institution, it concentrates both on the successful adaptation to prison life and on the experience of individuals who have difficulties in adapting, paying special attention to those who harm themselves whilst in prison.
