Philip Reichel received his M.A. and Ph.D. in Sociology from Kansas State University. After working for a few years as a counselor at the Nebraska Correctional Complex in Lincoln, he decided teaching was more to his liking and accepted a position at Augusta College (now Augusta State University) in Augusta, Georgia. In 1983 he accepted a position at the University of Northern Colorado and has been here since that Fall semester. His areas of teaching, research, and writing expertise include comparative justice systems and the broad area of corrections. Professor Reichel has published twenty articles in several professional journals over the last thirty years and is the author of two textbooks; Comparative Criminal Justice Systems: A Topical Approach (Prentice Hall), and Introduction to Corrections (Allyn & Bacon). He is also the editor of the Handbook of Transnational Crime and Justice (Sage). His comparative justice interests have resulted in invitations to speak at universities throughout Europe and at several universities in the U.S. He recently served as the International Section Chair in the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences.
