It is unique in comparing systematically the experience of those who were released unconditionally with that of those on parole. It not only describes the helps us understand each man's experience, particularly during their first twelve months from release, but also evaluates the effects of penitentiary sentences and the parole experience upon their lives. The book is based on a series of interviews with 423 men, who were chosen as a representative sample of inmates released from penitentiaries in Ontario in 1968. The researchers also collected, from psychological texts and official files, information which was integrated with data on all arrests that occured in the period of 24 months after their release. IRVIN WALLER draws together the broad set of experiences -- not just re-conviction -- to assess the relative success or failure of the existing correctional principles and programmes. He concludes that less public attention should be focused on the present inevitable high levels of recidivism from penitentiaries. However, the author suggests, in a practical manner, how the analysis of the factors this study showed to be associated with such high failue rates can be used in deliberate experimentation to give equivalent protection to the public, while reducing the number of individuals in prison and so the cost to the state.
