Why do people enter total institutions - places that confine and control them around the clock - and how does the experience change them? This book updates Goffman’s classic model by introducing the Re-inventive Institution, where members voluntarily commit themselves to pursue regimes of self-improvement.

Second, and closely related to the first tenet, man is not separable from his environment. We all share in this...

Some have suggested my poetry is akin to Emily Dickinson, as I have aspired to join the mystical and romantic, binding heaven and earth, body and soul, in pensive imagery. Poetry is a loving frequency with no memo...
