Descrizione Hidden Healers
"After working in the criminal legal system for over 25 years as a criminologist, I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to learn about things I claim to be an expert on. Hidden Healers is a very moving and personal account of Dr. Covington's journey with this system and the people behind its walls. She brings attention to the realities of daily life in prison and the research that supports the recommendations for change. She debunks the stereotypes with such clarity that you cannot pretend you don't get it! Incarcerated women become something more than subjects in these pages: they become people once more." --DR. NENA MESSINA, Criminologist, UCLA (ret); President and CEO, Envisioning Justice Solutions, Inc., Simi Valley, California
