Features of the fourth edition include: A student-friendly, streamlined organization Firsthand perspectives from offenders, victims, and criminal justice professionals Expanded coverage of white-collar and government crime A focus on the dynamics of race, class, and ethnicity A chapter on drug-related crime and antidrug laws Discussion of topics in the news: marijuana laws, sex trafficking, stand-your-ground policies, and more This new edition of a now-classic text-both accessible and sophisticated-will be welcomed by students and instructors alike.
