The Rich Get Richer and the Poor Get Prison: Thinking Critically About Class and Criminal Justice || Eighth Edition
by Jeffrey Reiman & Paul Leighton
The Rich Get Richer shows readers that much of what goes on in the criminal justice system violates citizens’ sense of basic fairness.
It presents extensive evidence from mainstream data that the criminal justice system does not function in the way it says it does nor in the way that readers believe it should.
The authors develop a theoretical perspective from which readers might understand these failures and evaluate them morally—and they to do it in a short text written in plain language.
