"My Regional Reception assessment Centre Handbook informs me I will be here for ten to fourteen weeks,
during which time I will be evaluated, assessed, analyzed, tested, probed, and profiled.
A team of IPOs, CO2s, psychologists and unit managers will collect, collate, graph, and
interpret the data. They will determine risk factors, crime cycles, pen placement,
treatment programs and how much fibre I will need in my diet. It could be argued, and
convincingly, that this is the evolution of penology."
-Stephen Reid, from JPP Vol. 11 (2001)
