Recenzii

'... by far the most comprehensive, contemporary and wide-ranging reader on the market ... I have no doubt that it will prove very successful indeed.'  Dave Edwards, London Metropolitan University
'... it's a terrific collection and nothing nearly as good exists elsewhere.'  Jonathan Simon, University of California Berkeley
'A lot of criminology for little money. It contains so many classics we want our students to read anyway, that it is fair to say it is an excellent buy for anyone studying criminology'  Professor Renvan Swaaningen, Erasmus University, Rotterdam
