Synopsis

""Observations On The Separate System Of Discipline Submitted To The Congress Assembled At Brussells, On The Subject Of Prison Reform"" is a book written by Joshua Jebb in 1847. The book provides a detailed analysis and critique of the separate system of prison discipline, which was a popular approach to prison reform in the 19th century. Jebb argues that the separate system, which involved keeping prisoners in solitary confinement for long periods of time, was inhumane and ineffective. He provides evidence from his own experience as a prison inspector, as well as from other experts in the field, to support his arguments. The book also includes recommendations for alternative approaches to prison reform, such as the use of education and vocational training to help rehabilitate prisoners. Overall, ""Observations On The Separate System Of Discipline"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the debates surrounding prison reform in the 19th century.On September 20, 1847.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
