CJ 2022 is a clear, thought-provoking exploration of core concepts, the latest research and current events shaping criminal justice today. Built to be affordable without sacrificing academic rigor, its pedagogy moves you beyond memorization to true understanding.

Building on the 2019 edition, the 2022 Edition explores significant changes in the criminal justice field since 2018 and the resulting challenges faced by practitioners in law enforcement, corrections and the courts. You'll consider the cross-systems nature of crime, law and justice, and the benefits of integrative approaches to problem-solving.

New topics include judicial and legislative developments, criminal justice responses to COVID-19, police-community relations, police-behavioral health partnerships, crisis intervention strategies, immigration policy and homeland security.
