Synopsis

The author's personal record of talking to people from across the Criminal Justice System who have stood by their principles, often in the face of pressure from those around them. A hugely reflective and inspiring book.

This book is a must for anyone who believes that it is important to preserve ethics, standards, values and integrity

Reviews

‘A highly readable and illuminating work’: Times Higher Education Supplement

‘One of those rare books that deserves a wide readership across the disciplines of criminal justice’: Criminal Behaviour and Mental Health

‘At a time when humanity in criminal justice is commonly ranked below efficiency and value for money . . . the need for vigilance is greater than ever’: British Journal of Criminology
