Book Description
The United States is the world leader in incarceration. It incarcerates individuals at a higher rate and in higher numbers, than any other country. The total number of prisoners held under the jurisdiction of state and federal correctional authorities as of December 31, 2015, were 1,526,800 - according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. There are more people with mental illnesses in the U.S. criminal justice system as compared to those in the general population. It is estimated that in the USA, one in five incarcerated persons is afflicted with a major psychiatric illness. These inmates often find the prison health systems inappropriate for continuing treatment. Invariably, their mental health deteriorates during incarceration. On release, they end up facing tough barriers to community integration. Spending time in the prison systems in the USA is also be associated with several mental health issues, in otherwise 'psychologically normal' inmates - as the author noticed during his incarceration. These disturbed inmates are unable to vent their distress and/or get help. Emotional instability in prison may make them more prone to the 'prison incarceration syndrome', upon release. The risk of recidivism also rises. These inmates however, do not seek help and usually suffer in silence. This book provides some self-help pathways to achieve better emotional stability, when incarcerated. Inspirational quotes give insight into the thoughts and teachings of very wise people. These individuals have experienced and weathered extreme situations in life, both good and bad. Their quotes contain nuggets about their experiences during these emotional upheavals. You have veered off your intended track in life - these motivational sayings will help you get back on track. Positive affirmations help remove your negative software in the brain and replace it with positive qualities. This re-writing is associated with a re-wiring in the brain - a process known as 'neuroplasty'. With repetition, the positive changes become permanent. As a result, you improve your self-esteem, develop more self-confidence and become emotionally stable. You become a more loving, caring and a friendlier person. Positive thinking also impacts your physical health - you become physically more active. Positive affirmations also reinforce the positive characteristics that you already possess.

Book Description
Death penalty has produced endless discourses not only in the context of prisons, prisoners and punishment but also in various legal aspects concerning the validity of death penalty, the right to life, and torture. Death penalty is embedded in Indian law, however very little is known about the people who are on death row barring a few media reports on them. The main objective of this book is to enquire whether the dignity of prisoners is upheld while they confront the criminal justice system and whilst surviving on death row. Additionally, it explores the lived-experiences and perceptions of prisoners on death row as they create meaning out of their world. With this rationale, 111 prisoners on death row in India and some of their family members were interviewed. The theoretical underpinnings of phenomenology and symbolic interactionism coupled with data analysis lead to an understanding of the prisoners on death row with special reference to their demographic profile and the impact of death sentence on their families. George’s research highlights three salient features, namely: poverty, social exclusion and marginalisation are antecedent to death penalty; death penalty is a constructed account by the state machinery; and prisoners on death row situate dignity higher in the juxtaposition of death and dignity.

Book Description
Has this thought crossed your mind, "How can I soar like an Eagle if I'm trapped like a Rat"? If this or something similar troubles you, it is very possible that you are in an Emotional Prison! Just like a four walls, barbed wire, locked up and armed guarded jail, it is possible for us to put ourselves in a prison where our innermost being is wedged in behind our own feelings. Over time a sense of a deep and internalized oppression grabs us, our lives feel like they are out of control. We start to act in violation of our beliefs and values. The emotional hole we are in gets deeper as we dig our way into what seems to be a bottomless pit. Eventually we arrive in a place where our emotions control us, we are in prison! Our behaviors have become obsessive or compulsive, and we may have developed addictions. Relationships around us are deteriorating and may have crumbled into the dust. Unknowingly we are hurting the people who we love or those that love us. Our walls have become things like anger, approval-seeking, or attention-getting. Our prison's barbed wire is the messages that the world sends us, like "you are not good enough." The armed guards are our friends and family who try to keep us trapped with their manipulation or coercion. We are firmly planted and sealed in our own unique and personal emotional prison. If what you have just read describes you or a person you care about, don't despair, there is hope! As surely as an individual can get into an emotional prison, he or she can get out. The "Emotional Prisons" series of books will help you to gain an understanding of what an emotional prison is, and what it looks and feels like. It will show you how people get into this dilemma and point the reader to actions that can be taken to get out of jail. Just like a physical prison there is a door with a lock, and a person who has the key, his name is Jesus Christ. In this first book the author describes and explains what a soul is and how it works. Then we see how various events in our lives combined with normal life stages combine together to point us to an emotional prison. He introduces us to a new four factor method of analyzing the reasons why we get into trapped emotional states; it is called SPAR, for security, performance, acceptance and responsibility. This book then sets the stage for book two which looks at actual emotional prisons.

The author shows us how we get trapped in these prisons and the probable sources of each of these common dysfunctions.
