INTRODUCTION AND CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK 1.0 Introduction The root of 'Crime and Punishment' is a dynamic societal problem that dates back to the dawn of humanity. The use of violence against one's person or the kidnapping of one's female were possibly the two earliest documented crimes in an age when society was simple and crimes were few. However, as the world has changed over the last half-century, a slew of new crimes have arisen, although existing ones have remained largely unchanged. Crime has grown to such proportions that it now poses a serious threat to our way of life. Almost every country is seeing a spike in crime. Statistics on the incidence of crime in India show that crime is on the rise and that it is contributing to overcrowding in prisons. According to the National Crime Records Bureau's (NCRB, 2017) Prison Statistics, Indian prisons are overcrowded, as they have been in previous years. The occupancy ratio was 115.1 percent, which means that 115 people were crammed into a space that could only hold 100 people. The detention of undertrials is a major cause of traffic congestion. Due to delays in court appearances or criminal investigation, some under-trials are held in jail for longer periods of time than they should be required to serve. According to some private reports, the under-trials were disproportionately, Imprisonment has a negative impact on people's wellbeing, particularly if they are later found innocent,

Florence St. John explores the complexity and resilience of three generations of women in her family. Daughter and mothers, sisters and cousins, all tangled in a knot. Despite their differences, there is an unbreakable connection that keeps them together. Recounting her childhood experiences, she reveals her family's dysfunction and sheds light on codependency issues. Overcoming the obstacles of her childhood, Florence made that promise that she wouldn't treat her daughter in the same "awful" way her parents treated her. No, she would do things differently. But when her daughter turned sixteen, she fell into a depression and began cutting herself. Florence tried everything to get her daughter back on track, but nothing seemed to work. She soon realized that, in many ways, her daughter represented herself growing up, with all the same anxieties and doubts that she had experienced. She looks back on her life as a child of an alcoholic father and absent mother to find answers.
Using in-depth case studies, Can’t Just Stop examines the science behind both mild and extreme compulsive behavior—“a fascinating read about human behavior and how it can go haywire” (The Charlotte Observer).Whether shopping with military precision or hanging the tea towels just so, compulsion is something most of us have witnessed in daily life. But compulsions exist along a broad continuum and, at the opposite end of these mild forms, exist life-altering disorders. Sharon Begley’s meticulously researched book is the first to examine all of these behaviors together—from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) to hoarding, to compulsive exercise, even compulsions to do good. They may look profoundly different, but these behaviors are all ways of coping with varying degrees of anxiety. Sharing personal stories from dozens of interviewees, “Begley combines a personal topic with thoughtfulness and sensitivity” (Library Journal) and gives meaningful context to their plight. Along the way she explores the role of compulsion in our fast-paced culture, the brain science behind it, and strange manifestations of the behavior throughout history. Can’t Just Stop makes compulsion comprehensible and accessible, with “fresh insight that could fundamentally alter how we think of, and treat, mental illness going forward” (Publishers Weekly).
This fun, smart read for anyone eager to better understand (and improve) themselves argues that personality is driven not by nature nor nurture—but instead by the projects we pursue, which ultimately shape the people we become.Traditionally, scientists have emphasized what they call the first and second natures of personality—genes and culture, respectively. But today the field of personality science has moved well beyond the nature vs. nurture debate. In Who Are You, Really? Dr. Brian Little presents a distinctive view of how personality shapes our lives—and why this matters. Little makes the case for a third nature to the human condition—the pursuit of personal projects, idealistic dreams, and creative ventures that shape both people’s lives and their personalities. Little uncovers what personality science has been discovering about the role of personal projects, revealing how this new concept can help people better understand themselves and shape their lives. In this important work, Little argues that it is essential to devote energy and resources to creative endeavors in a highly focused fashion, even if it takes away from other components of our well-being. This does not mean that we cannot shift from one core project to another in the days of our lives. In fact, it is precisely that ability to flexibly craft projects that is the greatest source of sustainability. Like learning to walk, forcing ourselves out of balance as we step is the only way in which we can move forward. And it is the only way that human flourishing can be enhanced. The well-lived life is based on the sustainable pursuit of core projects in our lives. Ultimately, Who Are You, Really? provides a deeply personal itinerary for exploring our personalities, our lives, and the human condition.
