Kathryn Henne and Rita Shah have assembled a richly varied set of contributions. These essays address the question of criminology's public roles from a wide and challenging range of positions, places, and perspectives. A debate that threatened to become repetitious and introspective has again turned outwards and become more open and more contemporary. - Richard Sparks, University of Edinburgh, and Ian Loader, University of Oxford, Authors of Public Criminology (Routledge, 2011)
