As incarceration has become a predominant American social policy for managing the problem of drug use, including the opioid epidemic, this book examines how prisons and jails have attempted concurrent programs of punishment and treatment to deal with inmates struggling with a diagnosis of substance use disorder. An addiction physician and medical anthropologist, Kimberly Sue powerfully illustrates the impacts of incarceration on women's lives as they seek well-being and better health while confronting lives marked by structural violence, gender inequity, and ongoing trauma.    \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"In this volume [Sue] offers an eye-opening account of the gendered dimensions of the 'War on Drugs.'—Highly recommended\" * CHOICE *\u003cbr\u003e\"Sue demonstrates empathy for the women she has come to know, as well as realism regarding the harshness of their circumstances.\" * Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Author’s Note\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1 Introduction: “It’s Just Part of the Game”\u003cbr\u003e 2 The Beauty Shop and the Segregation Unit\u003cbr\u003e 3 Heroin Is My Counselor\u003cbr\u003e 4 Discipline, Punish, and Treat Trauma?\u003cbr\u003e 5 Where Medicine Is Contraband\u003cbr\u003e 6 Recovery Is My Job Now\u003cbr\u003e 7 Life and Death after Jail\u003cbr\u003e 8 Conclusion: Breaking “Wicked Bad Habits”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e References\u003cbr\u003e Index","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49402890191191,"sku":"9780520293212","price":27.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780520293212.jpg?v=1730481786","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/getting-wrecked-women-incarceration-and-the-american-opioid-crisis-9780520293212","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
