Summary "The Review, Vol. 1, No. 5, May 1911" by Various is a monthly periodical published during the early 20th century, focusing on the theme of prison reform and the humane treatment of inmates. This particular volume includes a collection of articles primarily addressing issues related to correctional systems, the rehabilitation of prisoners, and the responsibilities of society towards inmates and their families. The book serves as a critical examination of the prevailing practices in prisons and sheds light on the ongoing discourse surrounding criminal justice reform at that time. The contents of this issue feature insightful discussions from various contributors, including a report by Warden J. T. Gilmour that speaks to the complexities of managing prison populations and emphasizes the importance of understanding the individual stories behind incarceration. Articles explore the Chicago House of Correction's operations, the problems faced by the American jail system, and the treatment of young offenders in reformatories. The discussions often reflect on the moral and practical obligations of society to assist not only the incarcerated individuals but also their families, while advocating for better facilities and treatment methods to foster rehabilitation and reintegration into society. Overall, the periodical serves as a call to action for improved practices within the criminal justice community. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
