Punishment and Modern Society by David Garland

In a brilliant synthesis of the work of Foucault, Durkheim, Weber, Kircheimer, and Marx, this book develops a completely new, comprehensive, and highly stimulating theory of punishment.
This is a superbly intelligent study, without doubt the best yet written on a topic, penality, which the author has done so much to develop.. As a state of the art account it is unlikely to be bettered for many a year. * Rod Morgan, British Journal of Criminology *
an insightful critique of existing approaches to the theory of punishment * Harvard Law Review *
a landmark study * Andrew Rutherford, Legal Studies *
