Newburn's Criminology has established itself as the market leading textbook in the subject for the UK market. Affectionately known by students and instructor as 'the Criminology Bible' (for its size as well as its reputation); it is an accessible and engaging 'one-stop-shop' for a Criminology degree, covering everything topic you will study over three years. Criminology is a flexible resource. It can be used as an introductory text for Criminology, as well as related courses on criminal justice, criminological theory, crime and society, understanding crime and punishment and criminological research methods. Criminology boasts and attractive and now recognizable text design, that sets it apart from its competitors. Review questions guide the student through the book (and are even answered in the website resources) and end-of-chapter exam questions and lists of further reading encourage further study and critical thinking. The textbook is clearly signposted throughout and includes chapter summaries and clear references between chapters.
