Like the first edition, this new revised version does a remarkable job of pulling together a vast range of socio-criminological theories and topics, both ‘orthodox’ and emerging. The addition of new chapters on ‘Crime, Place and Space’, and ‘Histories of Crime’ support any claims to comprehensiveness.

Authoritative, yet frequently provocative, Carrabine and his colleagues manage to convey both enthusiasm and expertise.
