Martin Wright

This text provides an accessible, up-to-date and thought-provoking introduction to policing for all those undertaking degrees and foundation degrees. It aims not only to inform students and prepare them for their course, but also to expose them to some of the challenges they will face as they begin their studies and/or policing careers. This book is the essential foundation for the Policing Matters series, explaining what policing is, what the police do, the context for policing and what are the main issues it faces and challenges it poses.

Offers 20 self-guided walks around Rhayader, a market town offering a gateway to the Cambrian Mountains. This title features routes which are designed for people of various abilities, and each walk comes with a map and description.

This is the second edition with additional material by the author, and a new foreword by one of the UK's leading penal reformers. Martin Wright starts by demonstrating that neither the conservative idea of deterrence through punishment nor the liberal ideal of rehabilitation has worked in practice. In their place he proposes the basis for a radical but carefully worked out practical philosophy which would place the emphasis on the offender making amends to the victim and society for the damage caused.
