From the Back Cover
This best-selling text offers comprehensive coverage of all aspects of deviance and is noted for its blend of style and substance.
Deviant Behavior covers a wide spectrum of theories of deviance and analyzes numerous specific deviant behaviors. The author uses an abundance of research data, including much that debunks our common assumptions about deviant behavior. Readers are not only exposed to the full range of theories and data about deviance but are also challenged to think about and evaluate their own biases and preconceptions.
