<p><strong><span style="background: yellow;">Corrections: The Essentials, Third Edition</span></strong><span> is a comprehensive, yet compact version of the typical corrections text. <span style="background: yellow;">Authors Mary K. Stohr and Anthony Walsh</span> address the most important topics in corrections in a <span style="background: yellow;">briefer, full-color format</span>, offered at a lower cost. It includes the usual topics typically found in corrections textbooks, but has a unique perspective with greater coverage on three key topics: <span style="background: yellow;">the history and development of correctional institutions, ethics and diversity</span>. The book also offers unique special feature boxes, allowing students and instructors the opportunity to focus on key perspectives to broaden the book’s coverage.
