This crucially important collection explores and exposes the diverse, damaging and mostly hidden legal consequences of criminal conviction. Contributions from leading scholars across many jurisdictions challenge and extend our conception of what both punishment and rehabilitation entail and require. This book deserves to be read widely — and to be used to re-shape policy and practice.
