Customer Reviews

Highly recommended.

This book is extremely good at explaining all the theories of criminology in a practical and applicable manner. I highly recommend it and purchased a second copy for my office. I use it as a reference very regularly.

a book for all criminology enthusiasts

Criminological theories is a well written book on theories, evaluations, and applications. The chapter I found most interesting was on Deterrence of Criminal Behavior. The delivery time on this book was exceptional. I would order from this company again.
