Riassunto

In "Criminal Justice in America, 7E, International Edition" George Cole, Christopher Smith, and new coauthor Christina DeJong have accomplished much within a brief format. They provide discussion of today's hottest careers, international comparisons, writing challenges, and real-world applications - all within a unique interdisciplinary framework. This concise introductory criminal justice text shows students the field's real-world opportunities while giving them a broad understanding of how and why public policy impacts criminal justice as it is practiced today. Created as an alternative to more expensive, encyclopedic introductory texts, this reader-friendly best seller incorporates ideas, themes, and theories from criminology, sociology, law, history, psychology, and political science. In addition to a strong interdisciplinary emphasis, "Criminal Justice in America, 7E, International Edition" teaches students to become better citizens by helping them think critically about what justice means in our society and how individuals can play a role in defining that meaning.
