Criminology Upplaga 2
This well-written overview of the major theoretical perspectives and crime types covered in most introductory criminology courses covers the most up-to-date theories and research of the field in a concise, cost-effective format. Each chapter includes chapter-opening vignettes, photos, case studies, and tables and figures to engage student interest. In the often-difficult theory chapters, summary tables that compare and contrast theories and Concluding Policy and Prevention sections promote a deep understanding of criminological concepts.
New to this edition:
An all-new Chapter 5, Crime as Choice: Rationality, Emotion, and Criminal Behavior, covers rational choice, routine activities, and cultural/anarchic theories, enabling a discussion of the role of emotions in criminality.
A new discussion explores the positive and negative aspects of emotions
The Theory in Action boxes illustrate chapter material with interesting case studies and now include review questions.
All chapters have been thoroughly updated with the new events in crime and criminology, as well as the latest crime statistics and empirical advances.
Fascinating new case studies featuring major criminals illustrate the theories.
New, expanded coverage of drug trafficking, human trafficking, weapons trafficking, money laundering, and school shootings has been added.
New tables with updated data and illustrations appear in every chapter.
