This book explores the ongoing and individual desistance journeys of ex-offenders during re-integration into society. It introduces nuanced and rich data around the growing interest in desistance, examines the reasons why individuals move away from crime, and highlights the importance of Higher Education as a conduit for change and rehabilitation.
