Description
Few subjects provoke as much public fascination and political concern as crime and criminality. This is an ideal textbook for undergraduate students coming to the subject for the first time. The book covers a wide range of topics: the historical and contemporary understandings of crime and criminal justice; different forms of crime - from street crime to state crime; who commits crime and who are the victims of crime; and how society and state agencies respond to crime and disorder. The contributions to the book offer clear, accessible introductions to the main topics and issues of criminology, and the book includes questions, summaries, key concepts, further reading, and tables and diagrams throughout. Online Resource Centre: Lecturer resources: * Lecture notes, by chapter * Powerpoint slides to accompany lecture notes, by chapter Student resources: * Updates * Chapter synopses * Bonus materials * Annotated Further reading * Glossary * Web links Test Bank: * A testbank of approximately 300 multiple choice with answers and feedback, corresponding to each chapter of the book

One of the real benefits is the scope of the material covered, which includes areas often neglected by criminology textbooks". Times Higher Education Supplement "A very useful compilation of the subject of criminology for undergraduates and people studying criminology, particularly for the first time," Dr. Lystra Hagley-Dickinson, British Journal of Criminology Newsletter 2006
