<p><b>Gary A. Bernfeld</b> is the editor of <i>Offender Rehabilitation in Practice: Implementing and Evaluating Effective Programs</i>, published by Wiley.</p> <p><b>David Philip Farrington</b> OBE is a British criminologist, forensic psychologist, and emeritus professor of psychological criminology at the University of Cambridge, where he is also a Leverhulme Trust Emeritus Fellow.</p> <p><b>Alan W. Leschied</b> is the editor of <i>Offender Rehabilitation in Practice: Implementing and Evaluating Effective Programs</i>, published by Wiley.</p>
<i>Offender Rehabilitation in Practice</i> is the first book in its field to reconcile the perspectives of both researchers and practitioners. Bernfeld, Farrington and Leschied go beyond the concept of "what works", by combining a review of this knowledge, with an effective guidebook on the implementation of state-of-the-art programs in the field. <p>Divided into three parts, all the chapters have either a programmatic, or an economic, or a policy focus. Part I discusses key issues in operational effectiveness. Part II details implementation issues arising from specific programs. Part III takes a much broader view by reviewing the experiences of those involved in the implementation of, the evaluation of, and consultation for correctional programs across multiple sites.</p> <p>With its emphasis on technology transfer, <i>Offender Rehabilitation in Practice</i> will be invaluable to a wide range of professionals in the adult and juvenile correctional field, including practitioners, administrators, policymakers and researchers.</p> <p> This book is published in the Wiley Series in Forensic Clinical Psychology</p>
