This book will introduce you to a powerful, unique approach to offender rehabilitation and crime prevention. In contrast to the generally dismal results of most rehabilitation approaches, studies covering periods of 1-15 years indicate that this new approach--employing the Maharishi Transcendental Meditation(R) and TM-Sidhi programs--reduces recidivism from 35-50%. Transcendental Meditation(R) in Criminal Rehabilitation and Crime Prevention provides you with a theoretical overview, new original research findings, and examples of practical implementation. With this book, you will explore what motivates people to commit crimes, with emphasis on stress and restricted self-development. Then you'll examine the results and policy implications of applying these consciousness-based techniques to offender rehabilitation and crime reduction.
