Book Synopsis
The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world, and there is great racial inequality in the criminal justice system.

Easy-to-read text, vivid images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards.

Trade Review
