Edited by Carl R. Doering

FROM THE FOREWORD: “The following monographs were selected from the group describing an experiment in penology made at the Norfolk Prison Colony in Massachu¬setts. Mr. Howard B. Sill, Superintendent of the Colony from 1928 to 1934, organized and directed it. The Bureau of Social Hygiene, Inc., granted funds to the Department of Correction of the Commonwealth for the purpose of employing per¬sons qualified to observe and report upon the reeult8 of the experiment. Later, upon special request, the Bureau agreed to allow part of the grant to be uBed to aid in organizing the ex¬periment. The group employed to observe and help organize the project was later known aa the Re¬search Group, and consisted of men representing many professions and academic disciplines. The members of this group ranged from college pro¬fessors to student assistants and they included sociologists, penologists, psychologists, theo¬logians, engineers, lawyers, physicians, statis¬ticians, and social workers. Almost every one of the group participated in the collection of data and in the presentation of short reports, on various aspects of the experiment. The authors of the following monographs compiled and used material contributed by former and contemporary members of the Research Group but with freedom to select, analyze, and interpret.”

FROM CHAPETR ONE: “This book is written primarily for organizations that try to change people adjudged delinquent or criminal. It may also prove useful to establishments for persons regarded as addicted, psychotic, retarded, or any other designations of deviance, provided their clients are considered modifiable, so that they may be helped to merit such labels as "reformed." "cured." "rehabilitated," "normal," "educated," "trained," or, minimally, "improved." Our concern is with organizations for example, prisons, probation offices, treatment centers, hospitals, clinics, and training schools- which proclaim that one of their objectives is to make their clients no longer deviant, or less deviant than previously.”

FROM THE PREFACE: Deviance iscommonly regarded as 'badness' and deserving to be treated by punishment and imprisonment, or as 'madness' and requiring treatment by medicines and hospitalisation At the extremes of deviant behaviour this labelling and all that goes with it causes the majority oft h e public few qualms of conscience. The immediate problem is solved in that society is protected from the 'bad' individual by secluding him in prison, whilst the 'mad' individual is saved from the conse- quences of his actions by being secluded in a mental hospital….”

By Charles Hampden-Turner

From the cover: “Sane Asylum is the true account of San Francisco's De- lancey Street Foundation, where former hookers, junkies, thieves, and murderers operate their own restaurant, mov- ing company, credit union, florist shop, and high school. Author and psycho-sociologist Charles Hampden-Turner came to observe the country's most successful rehabilita- tion center and was so intrigued that he stayed for a year. Recorded here is the human drama of which he became a part; the remoldingof lives and "games" members of the community are required to play searching out their inner selves. He also provides a fascinating portrait of Delancey Street's director, "a charismatic, tough-talking, street character; a macho, irreverent Irish-Bronx ex-con named John Maher. A fascinating account forall readers, Sane Asylum is an affectionate, totally honest look at America's pioneer com- munity in social rehabilitation- one which is succeeding where all the others have failed.”

From the Preface: “The opportunity which the Institute of Human Relations of Yale University offered us forgaining new light on delin- quency its fundamental causes and better treatment- -met a ready response on our part. In spite of the many studies of delinquency already produced, it is certain that various aspects of the subject need much more illumination. In re porting the research conducted for the Institute we above all wish to make clear the fact that we have won for ourselves, and we hope for others, some clearer understandings upon which to base more effective procedures with the juvenile de linquent. With the widening of horizons some exceedingly practical issues have been forced into sharper focus.”

“Recent years have brought an increased impetus to thinking about typologies of criminals and delinquents. Of the many forces contrib- uting to this development, two stand out. The first has come with the switch from custody to treatment emphasis in handling offenders along with the disappointments regarding the total effectiveness of some attempted treatment programs.”
