Discusses the methodologies of life-course and longitudinal research
Explains and critiques the major theories of life-course criminology
Considers the issues of risk, prediction, onset, persistence and desistance of criminal activity
Draws on research from studies in Europe, the UK, US and Australia, including the Stockholm Life-Course Project
Written by two leading figures in the field, this is an authoritative text that will guide you through your studies in life-course criminology, criminal career research, and developmental criminology.
