This groundbreaking book offers a powerful sociological and criminological exploration of disability, autism and mental health within the criminal justice system (CJS). Through life stories and critical analysis, it exposes the stigmatisation, miscommunication and injustices faced by neurodivergent individuals and their families. Drawing on care ethics and the concept of ‘careless’ and ‘careful’ spaces, the book reveals how structural inequalities shape everyday experiences and responses to difference.
With a focus on the emotional, practical and socio-political landscape, it addresses an overlooked area of research into the CJS. It offers new insights for policy, practice and research—insights that respect complexity, encourage empathy and make the invisible visible.
