This book operates on 3 levels – story-telling, theoretical analysis, and empirical evidence – to build an argument about achieving greater public safety for Canada and the U.S. The author -- who is Co-Director of the Centre for Restorative Justice at Simon Fraser University -- asserts that security will come not from expanding the role of the “prison-industrial complex,” but rather from encourging citizens to invest more of themselves into care and concern for those around them in their communities.
