This edited volume presents research about life in prison for women, discussing both incarcerated women and those working in prisons. It addresses women''s paths through the criminal justice system from sentencing through post-incarceration and reintegration into society, highlighting the differences in women''s experience of prison compared to their male counterparts and noting both the positive and negative changes implemented for women behind bars.

Covering research on stigma, pop culture, motherhood, sexuality and gender, access to healthcare, vocational training, and educational opportunities, this text takes both a local and international view.  Women and Prison is a comprehensive volume suitable for criminal justice researchers, mental health professionals, students of criminology, women''s studies, sociology and those seeking a career in corrections.
