"This book should be required reading in every correctional academy. The advice is priceless; it will save the jobs and mental health of many recruit officers. While experience cannot be taught; it can save many from the pitfalls of the "job." Dr. Ali-al-Rahman Assistant Professor Criminal Justice Department Nassau Community College (Retired NYC DOC Warden) "The context of the guide is not to provide a total text of everything one needs to know in understanding inmates, but instead is a functional look of serious pitfalls to avoid when becoming a correction officer and supervising inmates. The book, â€œCorrection Officerâ€™s Guide to Understanding Inmatesâ€ is written in a manner that flows evenly from beginning to end, the book is a personal accounting of what an average person might encounter in becoming a correction officer. Although set within the New York City Department of Correction, the guide is a testimonial for any correction officer, anywhere. Clear and un-apologizing advice is given from a person that has acquired a high level of understanding inmates and professional skill in dealing with them. A new correction officer would find the guide a revealing resource of suggestions that are only considered by many tenured staff members once they have made mistakes. The guide is a means to avoid such mistakes. â€œCorrection Officerâ€™s Guide to Understanding Inmatesâ€ is a necessary premier for those seeking a career as a correction officer. I highly recommend the guide." Stephen A. Ricci, Esq. (Retired NYC DOC Captain)
