Book Synopsis Inside Ashworth by : David Pilgrim
Book excerpt: High security institutions for mentally disordered offenders are far more complex than regular mental health hospitals or prisons. Ashworth Hospital is no exception. This book raises questions as to why Ashworth resisted the call for change and survived moves towards de-institutionalisation, enquiries, and threats of closure.
