OverviewCriminology: Theory, Research, and Policy, Fifth Edition explores the factors and social reactions to crime. The text covers the most recent research available on theories and special topics like human trafficking, stalking, cybercrime, and terrorism. By making the connection between theory, research, and policy, the authors demonstrate the relevancy of criminological theory in the public attempt to control crime while providing justice. The emphasis on these three elements with pertinent discussions and examples is what sets this text apart from other criminology titles.
