PRINCIPLES and CONCEPTS OF CRIMINOLOGY( CASPER DAVIS, )

Criminology is an exciting field—the motives and control of crime are fascinating and have generated vigorous debate. This book dis- cusses a wide range of offences, from homi- cide, sexual assault, and stalking to organized crime and terrorism. It also covers such mat- ters as the consequences of crime to victims and society, the measurement and preven- tion of crime, and the public’s views of crime. This book seeks to capture the excitement of criminology both in the choice of current and relevant material and in the tone, so students are engaged by the content.
