Criminology Today is a clear and thorough introduction to criminology. It will prompt you to think critically about the causes of crime and the link between crime theories and policies. With a hallmark theme of social problems versus individual responsibility, the text uses real stories, issues and examples to bring to life both historical and modern criminological approaches.
New developments in criminology appear throughout, including how crime and criminals have changed and what these changes mean for individuals and the nation as a whole. Chapter topics are illustrated with case examples, and Criminal Profiles boxes offer insight into the lives and criminal motivations of notorious offenders.
The 9th Edition expands coverage of terrorism and cyberterrorism, including with an overview of types of terrorist groups, as well as the findings and recommendations of special committees and government bodies.
