Themes underlying this book/CD-ROM text for beginning students in criminal justice include the contrast between the rights of individuals versus the need for public order, the role of technology in fighting crime and in crime itself, and the challenges of multiculturalism and diversity. A variety of boxed readings give insight on professional issues, news stories, and the future of criminal justice. The included CD-ROM contains interactive scenarios based on real cases, key term review, games, quizzes, a glossary, and Web links. The author is professor emeritus at the University of North Carolina-Pembroke, where he chaired the Department of Sociology, Social Work, and Criminal Justice. Annotation c.
