Probation and Re-Education
About this book
Elizabeth Glover had a wide knowledge of Club work, to which she gave seven years' service at the beginning of her career. This was followed by a period of voluntary work in the Metropolitan Juvenile Courts. She joined the Probation Service in 1931 and remained in it until 1946, working at first in the London Courts, and later as a member of the Probation Training Board and an Inspector.
While Probation and Re-Education, originally published in 1949, was primarily written for all who had to do with delinquent children, it was addressed not only to specialists, but to the wider public who were beginning to feel some concern about post-war moral standards. It was revised in 1956 in the light of changes brought about by the Criminal Justice Act of 1948.
What is probation? What happens to the person put on probation? What good is it supposed to do to him or to society? These are the questions which this book sets out to answer. Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.
