Beschreibung

In "Non-Criminal Prisons," Arthur Griffiths presents a thought-provoking examination of the penal system, challenging conventional perceptions of justice and rehabilitation. Griffiths employs a richly descriptive literary style that combines narrative insight with scholarly analysis, engaging readers through vivid illustrations of prison life. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century England, the book provides an intricate portrait of reformative justice, arguing for the humane treatment of inmates and the potential for personal transformation within prison walls. By situating his work within contemporary debates on punishment and rehabilitation, Griffiths contributes a critical voice to the dialogue around penal reform. Arthur Griffiths, an influential figure in the field of criminology and prison reform, draws upon his extensive experience in the justice system to shape his arguments in this pivotal work. His background as a journalist and a prison governor gave him unique insights into the lives of inmates and the conditions of incarceration. Throughout his career, Griffiths championed the notion that prisons should serve as rehabilitative environments rather than mere punitive spaces, an ideology that is palpably echoed in "Non-Criminal Prisons." This compelling book is highly recommended for readers interested in criminology, social justice, and prison reform. Griffiths' articulate prose and profound understanding of the complexities surrounding incarceration make this a must-read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone eager to engage with the ongoing discourse on the merits and pitfalls of the penal system.

    Awaken your future sense and predict your own future! 
The future is a game. And this book will teach you how to win planetary style! 
Anne Skare Nielsen and Henrik Good Hovgaard are some of the most prominent futurists in the game. Together they run Universal Futurist and travel the world to teach leaders and other folks how to be a visionary, predict the future and create their own unique vantage point. Anne and Henrik are crazy enough to believe that futurists can change the world for the better, and their own mission is to win the Nobel Peace Price before they die. If you buy this book, you’re invited to the after party. 
‘Future Sense’ will teach you how to spot trends, how to keep focusing on your goals, overcome your worst fears and taboos, train new and future-oriented skills and visualize a future full of magic moments. 
You’ll move on from being a passive and analytical observer to being an active and rebellious co-player. And you’ll attune your ‘MBS’ – an amazing navigation tool that teaches you how to combine your Mind, Body and Soul, so that you are able to see, feel and believe in the future you want to create. 
With 'Future Sense’ in your hand, you’ll not just be able to navigate the future. You’ll also know how to design the rules of the game yourself. The future will no longer hit you on the way out, for you will be the futurist, who can change the rules of the game and create a better world for others. 
‘Future Sense’ unlocks a new and better mode called Planetary. And you can only win this mode if the other players win as well. Success in the future is not about ‘more,’ it’s about ‘better.’ 
When you can predict your own future, you must use the insight you gain to create a better life, but you can’t do it on your own. If you’re in the game for ‘more,’ you might win, but you’ll ruin the whole world in the process.
