Crime trends, from historical overview to recent crime patterns

Criminal justice system, including policing and prisons

Ways of thinking about crime and control, from the origins of criminology to contemporary theories

New topics within criminology including terrorism, cybercrime, human rights, and emotion

The book is packed with contemporary international case studies and has a lively 2 colour text design to aid student revision. Specially designed to be accessible and user-friendly, the new edition is also supported by a fully interactive companion website which offers exclusive access to British Crime Survey data, as well as other student and lecturer resources.
