Trade Review“This work is set to be the first in series from Wiley and if this work is an indication of what is to follow, I will very much look forward to the future sets focusing on theoretical criminology, juvenile justice and delinquency and, finally, crime and punishment.” (Reference Reviews, 1 June 2015)
“Summing Up: Highly recommended. Libraries supporting upper-level undergraduates through practitioners in criminology/criminal justice; general readers.” (Choice, 1 September 2014)
