Management of the Absurd by Richard Farson
5.0
I had first read this book about 15 years ago and it made a great impression on me.
How much could I recall from it? One phrase only - once you've found a good management technique, abandon it. (think about it.... :)
So I was a bit apprehensive - will the book hold up upon re-reading by an older and more experienced me? Turns out it did; I was greatly impressed again but in a different way.
The new takeaway phrase is probably going to be that rehabilitation is only effective in very small prisons...
