| Publisher Description: A prisoner's greatest concern is becoming institutionalized, or "prisonized," a psychological condition which prevents prisoners from successful reintegration into society. In Beating the Code Dilemma, Book Two in the Finding Purpose Series, prison expert J.D. MacBean combines research into prison society with concepts from sociology to explain the origin of the Prison Code, the informal set of rules all prisoners must follow. But upon release, the Prison Code leads to serious, negative mental health consequences for men and women, such as Infantilism and Complex PTSD. These conditions often lead to substance abuse, arrest, recidivism or suicide. Beating the Code Dilemma provides every prisoner strategies on how to overcome prisonization, prevent PTSD and emerge a better person. Beating the Code Dilemma explains: - How our need to feel popular leads to prison hierarchies- How the Street Code led to our modern-day Prison Code- How prison hierarchies keep the Prison Code in place- How the Prison Code causes institutionalization and negative psychological consequences for prisoners after they leave prison- How these mental health consequences lead to high rates of recidivism or even premature death- How every prisoner can Challenge the Prison Code in order to improve their chances of success in society. |
