Penal Discipline is a book written by Mary Gordon that explores the concept of punishment and discipline within the criminal justice system. The book delves into the history and evolution of penal discipline, examining how it has been used to control and regulate behavior, as well as the impact it has had on individuals and society as a whole.Gordon argues that the current system of punishment is flawed and ineffective, and that a more rehabilitative approach is needed to address the root causes of criminal behavior. She also explores the role of power and privilege in the criminal justice system, and how these factors contribute to the disproportionate punishment of certain groups, such as people of color and those from low-income backgrounds.Throughout the book, Gordon draws on a range of sources, including historical documents, legal cases, and personal narratives, to provide a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of penal discipline. Her writing is clear and accessible, making the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in criminal justice reform and the broader issues of social justice and inequality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
