内容説明
This groundbreaking text achieves what no other previous introduction to criminology text has achieved: it breaks down the myths and stereotypes that students have formed and has them critically examine their own beliefs. In addition to presenting all of the standard criminological theory and typologies material, the material is framed by a critical thinking approach, apparent through unique and important pedagogy: Chapter 4, Myths and Facts, and Reading Between the Lines boxes. Your students will not just be reading and memorizing meaningless theories, they will be challenging their own assumptions and the assumptions of others.
