“In the year two thousand, in my judgment, the prison system will increasingly be valued, and used, as a laboratory and workshop for social change.”
—James V. Bennett, in I Chose Prison
“About all this—the causes of crime—we need more information, more research, more experimental data. Even our present prisons, bad as many of them are, could be extensively used as laboratories for the study of many of the unsolved problems.”
—Dr. Karl Menninger, in The Crime of Punishment
