Inhaltsangabe

This World Health Organization study on health concerns within European prison systems focuses on how current policies can no longer ignore these conditions, especially in light of the emergence of HIV and AIDS in these environments. Contributors from both the medical and social science fields discuss failures in the past that have led to an abnormally high incidence of mental and physical illness in these institutions, presenting case studies and comparisons from country to country. Written for policymakers, prison management and students, these articles also focus on the need for much stronger leadership in order to foment progress in these environments.
