About this book
This riveting look at life after prison puts a human face on those who are all too often defined by their crimes, even after their sentences have been served.
Drawing on the narratives of men who have served lengthy prison sentences, this book illuminates the tumultuous journey from life in a penitentiary to success in the community.

Reviews
Elizabeth Comack, Sociology Department, University of Manitoba:
The greatest strength of On the Outside lies in its ability to bring into view the standpoints of men who have typically been demonized. By focusing on their experiences of resettlement, this book addresses a key issue in criminology as well as public debates about crime and safety. This is an important and significant work.
