Críticas:
"This book is a comprehensive, compelling text in which Katherine van Wormer artfully addresses areas that are absent from the literature on criminal justice and the helping professions as they relate to the special needs of girls and women offenders... Noting that 'a paradigm shift is in the wind,' the book is brilliantly constructed as it underscores the contradictions and paradoxes within the penal system... The author's writing style is a notable strength as she convincingly advocates for a multidimensional, gender-sensitive approach while she systematically dissects the micro- and macrolevel dynamics that affect policy, programs, and research on female offenders." ( Affilia: Journal of Women and Social Work, February 2012)
Reseña del editor:
Mandated for work in the juvenile justice system by the federal government and highly recommended for work with adult female offenders as well, the gender sensitive approach takes into account the special needs of girls and women. Addressing this gap in the literature, this book shows how professionals can address the needs of female offenders. Social workers, counselors, psychologists, and correctional officers who work with female offenders are provided with counseling skills in treating female offenders on anger management, communication, stress management, and other issues.
