Description

Renny Golden provides a deep look into the lives of incarcerated women and the heavy impact on their families. This book examines the fastest growing prison population, which stems from the War on Drugs. Golden explores the reality for the 350,000 children left behind by mothers in prison, addressing the specific risks and needs these children face. Through this work, the author establishes a new way to think about the situation of incarcerated mothers and the consequences of current judicial policies. It is a timely resource for those studying the social sciences, criminology, and the human side of the legal system. By bringing the pains of imprisonment to life, Golden helps readers understand the broader implications of how judicial decisions affect family structures and child welfare.
