Recenzii
From the reviews:
“Editors … view the ongoing unification of Europe as an opportunity to consolidate knowledge from prior studies while offering entirely new research specifically commissioned from academics and professionals in various disciplines. The handbook’s arrangement in two sections reflects this approach. … This is a highly useful cross-cultural handbook. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and above in criminology and related disciplines.” (D. K. Frasier, Choice, Vol. 50 (7), March, 2013)
