FROM THE INTRODUCTION: “From the outset, it was intended to provide maximum security in that patients were to be prevented from escaping. Some of the precautions that were part of "maximum security" in the early days were learned from other institutions, and were incorporated into the architecture and the hospital routine from the beginning. In the early years there were some escapes and some suicides, which led to such increases in security as safety screens for windows, posting staff around the yard, guardhouses, lear gas guns, and reduction of the size of the outside work gang.

As in most maximum security psychiatric facilities, the patients in Oak Ridge today are a diverse group. Some of them have only been sent on a warrant of remand for 30 or 60 days for an assessment prior to retuming to court…”

FROM THE COVER: The therapeutic community at the Dannemora State Hospital "Little Siberia" in Clinton, N.Y. lasted from October 1966 to June 1972 - ironically spanning the very years of the Attica tragedy and sponsored by the same New York State Department of Corrections in association with the Clinic of Forensic Psychiatry of Montreal's McGill University. This book was written by the psychiatrist in charge, using records of the participants: articles, minutes, tapes of discussions (one fascinating chapter was written by three women therapists who describe working with men imprisoned for murder and rape). The first 50 prisoners - in all 400 would participate - were all persistent offenders ranging in age from 25 to 35. All had a history of violent crime outside and inside prison…”
