Debates in Criminal Justice : Learning from Key Debates

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.Ellis, Steve is the author of 'Debates in Criminal Justice : Learning from Key Debates', published 2008 under ISBN 9780415445900 and ISBN 0415445906.
