About the Book

This innovative new book recognises that, while criminal justice studies is a core component of all criminology/criminal justice undergraduate degrees, it can be a confusing, overwhelming and a relatively dry topic despite its importance. This helpful book takes an original approach, setting out a series of ten key dilemmas, presented as debates, designed to provide students with a clear framework with which to develop their knowledge and analysis in a way that is both effective and an enjoyable learning experience. This book is also designed for lecturers to structure a core unit of their courses around.

Debates in Criminal Justice provides a new and very original type of framework for learning, making considerable use of the other already available academic key texts, press articles, web sources and more.
