Controlling Crime (2nd edition) (McLaughlin and Muncie)
Great book for students studying criminology. Really good condition, like new. No obvious signs of use. No spine damage and can't find any damage to pages. No highlighting or annotating. I really like the layout of this, makes it easy to read. Key words in the margins help you find things easily and there are activities throughout which helped me to apply what I'd read to situations, a useful skill for graduates! I have included a photo as an example of this. At the end of each chapter there is a further reading section (there is always a reference list, but it's nice that this book provides extra reading to help you start reading about a subject) and there are review questions that help you to make sure you have understood the chapter, this was really helpful for me too! Wish all textbooks were like this one. Item description: The Second Edition of Controlling Crime provides an important evaluation of criminal justice in the United Kingdom during a period of rapid social change. Each chapter encourages historical, comparative and critical reflection on the organizational logics, powers, procedures and practices of the criminal justice system. Intended as essential reading for students of criminology, criminal justice, community safety, socio-legal studies, sociology of crime and deviance and social policy, Controlling Crime will also be of interest to anyone wishing to gain an understanding of the operation of contemporary criminal justice systems. RRP: £ Please note postage and packaging is at buyers expense. I am selling several criminology textbooks and can post several at once. Read More
