Mentioned far less often is what happens to the nearly 700,000 former prisoners who rejoin society each year. \u003ci\u003eOn the Outside\u003c\/i\u003e examines the lives of twenty-two people--varied in race and gender but united by their time in the criminal justice system--as they pass out of the prison gates and back into the world. The book takes a clear-eyed look at the challenges faced by formerly incarcerated citizens as they try to find work, housing, and stable communities. Standing alongside these individual portraits is a quantitative study conducted by the authors that followed every state prisoner in Michigan who was released on parole in 2003 (roughly 11,000 individuals) for the next seven years, providing a comprehensive view of their postprison neighborhoods, families, employment, and contact with the parole system. \u003ci\u003eOn the Outside\u003c\/i\u003e delivers a powerful combination of hard data and personal narrative that shows why our country continues to struggle with the social and economic reintegration of the formerly incarcerated. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e For further information, including an instructor guide and slide deck, please visit: http: \/\/ontheoutsidebook.us\/home\/instructors\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David J.
