Synopsis

The fifth edition of this introductory Criminal Justice text. The contents have been pared down to five parts and sixteen chapters to best explain the intricacies of criminal justice policy and practice. The book has been thoroughly updated by Patrick Anderson to cover developments in policing, corrections, the war on drugs, and to include introductory cases on field practice, the criminal justice system in practice, the ideological framework of crime control, and discussions of criminological theory and crime punishment.
