Book Description
The American crime picture has changed, and this informative book has been updated to reflect these changes. It includes the most recent coverage available of terrorism, white-collar crime, and other issues of major concern to readers at the start of the 21st century. Interesting, timely, and relevant, this book helps readers draw their own conclusions about the American crime problem, enabling them to prepare for the future and learn to make informed personal decisions. Criminology Today, 3/e has been updated and expanded to reflect the latest trends and spectacular events that are covered in the media today, including the latest corporate crimes, organized crime, high-tech crimes, the D.C.-area sniper case, capital punishment, and the Moscow theater hostage stand-off. It includes the most up-to-date crime statistics and coverage of the latest US Supreme Court decisions. The crime picture, crime causation, crime in the modern world, and responding to criminal behavior are topics that are covered thoughtfully and comprehensively. An excellent resource for those involved in the criminal justice system, including police personnel, attorneys, social workers, psychologists, and others. 0
