Summary: Very practical realistic educational book.
Comment: I read this book out of curiousity, and found practical information. The authors not only tell you how it is in prison, but they also explain why. When you hear of something happening in prison, you never hear the full story. These guys tell you everyone's side of the story, and the full ugly truth about prison life. They explain why the guards let some fights happen, how a guard can make your life hell how without even touching you (tearing up your mail, taking your clothes, etc), they also explain how most cons bribe or blackmail guards (have an outsider find out where the guard lives, snap a pic of wife or kids, mail to con) and why sometimes guards let fights happen and look the other way so to speak.

Summary: Helpful
Comment: Although I have yet to be in jail (*thats a good thing) this book appears to have useful information such as slang terms, routines, drugs, sex, and crime in jail. I would recommend reading this book if you have not been in jail before!

Summary: The honest, truth
Comment: Behind bars is a quick, easy, useful, and enjoyable read. Though this book is being used as a college text book, don't let that drive you away. This book is useful to everyone, not just criminology students. Richards and Ross give you the truth about our prison system, this book is written from their experiences dealing with the system. No one plans on going to prison, but you never know, it's better to be prepared than to get ...(pardon the pun). Read the book, trust me, you won't be able to put it down.
