Moving Probation Forward: Evidence, Arguments and PracticeEdited by Wing Hong Chui and Mike Nellis Moving Probation Forward: Evidence, Arguments and Practice is a new core text which provides a much needed account of issues surrounding probation in the changing context of criminal justice policy and management in the UK.
Drawing on a range of current expertise in the field, the book covers various key topic areas in probation in an approachable and user-friendly way.
