| book description |

The fourth edition of Criminology: The Basics has been fully revised and updated to offer an engaging and concise introduction to the main themes and concerns of this compelling and complex subject and gives an overview of the main theoretical and conceptual approaches to crime and justice. Topics covered include: • the history and development of criminology, • myths about crime and offenders, • the search for criminological explanation, • victims of crime and state crime, • crime prevention and the future of crime control, • criminology and intersectionality. The new edition has been expanded to include discussion of emerging themes in criminology, including the debates surrounding decolonizing the curriculum, the emergence of digital criminology and its impact on crime control and prevention, as well as ongoing scrutiny on violence against women. Authoritative and accessible, this book offers chapter summaries, exercise questions, and lists of further reading to provide a perfect introduction to this subject.
