Contents

I would like to thank the following. Roger Matthews for getting me started, money, and enthused; Karen Duke for sage, practical advice and the bottle of champagne; and Anthony Goodman for pastoral care and the seafood risotto. Others at Middlesex University who chipped in along the way include Ken Lupton (RIP), Theresa Wilson, David Jarrett, David Porteous, Rhona Stephen and Margaret Davis; and at De Montfort University, Rob Canton and Roger Smith. Pat Dowdeswell, Veronica Hollis, Richard Lane and Sarah Gough at the Home Office provided access to statistical information. Nicky Young in HMP Wandsworth, Claire Smith in HMP Pentonville, and (an especial big hello to) Cheryl Brown and Jasmine Scott in HMP Brixton, arranged the interviews. Obviously I am grateful for the quality time provided by each of the prisoners. Id like to think they got something out of it too. Stephen Farrall has been an encouraging and helpful editor. It goes without saying that all errors and omissions are my own. And finally, on the home front, to Jo and Jack for everything really. Space is the place and living with you in it is just x.
