Reseña del libro "College for Convicts: The Case for Higher Education in American Prisons (en Inglés)"

The United States accounts for 5 percent of the world's population, yet incarcerates about 25 percent of the world's prisoners. Examining a wealth of studies by researchers and correctional professionals, as well as the experience of educators, College for Convicts shows that recidivism rates drop in direct correlation to the amount of education prisoners receive, and the rate drops dramatically with each additional level of education attained. This volume presents a workable solution to America's mass incarceration and recidivism problems, and demonstrates that great fiscal benefits arise when modest sums are spent educating prisoners. Prisoner education results in a reduction in crime and social disruption, reduced domestic spending and a rise in quality of life. College for Convicts was awarded The Montaigne Medal in 2015 for the most thought-provoking book of the year.
