Prisons and Women

Examines the women's prison system in New South Wales from the point of view of the inmates, using as sources both Government documents and the experiences of prisoners and ex-prisoners themselves.

Covers topics such as arrest and interrogation, health, custodial officers and post-release. Includes references and an index. The author is a writer-researcher, and was formerly an inmate of a NSW prison.

A hard-to-find book.
