Crime And Society 

Crime and society are closely linked for better and for worse. Society is strongly affected by crime, both due to the cost of crime, as well as the decline in the quality of life that citizens suffer as a result of crime. However, society can also play a role in reducing and deterring crime. Many agencies and programs in the crime prevention field are based on societal and community efforts. This comprehensive book is written especially for the needs of graduate students. The book covers all the usual areas of crime as well as major new topics not generally seen in textbooks in this area.
