INTERNATIONAL EDITION, 10E
Todd R. Clear, Rutgers University; George F. Cole, University of
Connecticut; Michael D. Reisig, Arizona State University
Long at the forefront of the course AMERICAN
CORRECTIONS, 10E, International Edition has been
a trusted resource for introducing students to the
dynamics of corrections in a way that captures their
interest and encourages them to enter the field.
Complete with valuable career-based material,
insightful guest speakers, illuminating real-world cases,
and uniquely even-handed treatment of institutional
and community sanctions, the text examines the U.S.
correctional system from the perspectives of both the
corrections worker and the offender, providing students
with the most well-rounded, balanced introduction to
corrections available.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
FEATURES
• Crucial community corrections material previously
presented in Chapter 21 (and often skipped as a
result) now appears in Chapter 8, “Probation,” and
Chapter 9, “Intermediate Sanctions and Community
Corrections.” This change results in early, thorough
coverage of all aspects of surveillance and control in
the community, and reduces the number of chapters
from 23 to 22.
• Each chapter opens with a high-interest vignette-nearly all of them new--based on today’s headlines and
designed to draw students into the chapter material.
Topics include recent actions of Arizona’s Maricopa
County Sheriff, Joe Arpaio (Chapter 7); the April 2011
charges brought against New Jersey correctional
officer Luis Roman (Chapter 11); and the “Moms and
Babies” program at the Decatur Correctional Center
in Illinois (Chapter 12).
• To further enhance the relevancy of text content and
hone student’s critical thinking skills, chapter openers
are linked to one or two new critical thinking insets
in the chapter. These activities--suitable for student
reflection, group work, and writing assignments-connect the real-world case to a specific topic, and
pose questions that challenge students to apply
what they are learning. For instance, the feature for
Chapter 7 on jails revisits the story of Sheriff Arpaio,
and asks students to consider the advantages and
disadvantages of electoral accountability for jail
administrators.
• The Focus on Correctional Policy and Focus on
Correctional Practice boxes have been refreshed to
emphasize evidence-based practices in corrections,
especially in the high-profile areas of probation,
intermediate sanctions, and parole. The guest
perspective of U.S. Probation Officer Scott Talbot
explains this new orientation and its importance in
the field.
• Each chapter has been thoroughly updated in
response to reviewer feedback, with the most dramatic
enhancements being in the areas of community
corrections, re-entry into the community, prison
overcrowding, and the implications of state budgetary
restrictions on the correctional system. This edition
also presents expanded and clarified coverage on the
theoretical basis of policies, particularly in community
corrections.
• Each part opens with a Guest Perspective that ties
correctional innovations and ideas to the topics found
in the upcoming part. Written by experts in various
corrections subfields, these insightful essays cover
innovations in such hot areas as prisoner re-entry
into the community and evidence-based practices,

further enhancing the book’s real-world orientation.
• Providing for maximum reinforcement and student
success, chapters begin with numbered learning
objectives that are carefully matched to end-ofchapter summary sections--as well as linked to
corresponding quiz and test items.
• Focus on . . . boxes bring to life the real-world relevance
of the issues discussed in the text. These boxes--which
cover People in Corrections, Correctional Policy, and
Correctional Practice--use vivid, in-depth accounts by
correctional workers, journalists, prisoners, parolees,
and the relatives of those who are in the system to
illuminate chapter topics.
• Myths in Corrections sections address common myths
and misconceptions about corrections and criminal
justice, providing an interesting and effective way
to engage students, stimulate class discussion, and
encourage critical thinking.
• Careers in Corrections boxes, found in appropriate
chapters throughout the book, focus on a particular
correctional occupation. The material includes the
nature of the work, required qualifications, earnings
and job outlook, plus a source for more information.
This feature gives students valuable insight into who
plays what role in the corrections field.

COMMUNITY-BASED CORRECTIONS, 10E
Leanne Fiftal Alarid, University of Texas-San Antonio
Objective, comprehensive, and completely up-to-date,
the tenth edition of best-selling COMMUNITY-BASED
CORRECTIONS provides an excellent introduction to
the procedures, practices, and personnel involved in
community-based corrections. Students learn about
the wide array of effective punishments and treatment
programs that constitute alternatives to incarceration,
and which are designed to meet the level of risk posed
by, and the needs of, each individual. These include
probation, parole, electronic monitoring, house arrest,
day-treatment centers, boot camps, restitution, fines,
and other options. The book’s balanced approach
reflects a strong emphasis on practical and legal
matters, and places the programs in their historical,
philosophical, social, and legal context. Input from
professionals in the field gives students invaluable
insight into real-world practice.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• In Chapter 1, coverage of theories related to
community correctional goals has been expanded to
include specific deterrence; rehabilitation through
risk, needs, and responsivity; and restorative justice.
The chapter also introduces an integrated theory of
probation (the participation process model).
• Chapter 2 now includes material on the purpose
of probation (formerly Box 1.1 in the previous
edition) to highlight the functions of probation at
a more opportune spot. In addition, this chapter
now introduces deferred adjudication/diversion so
that students gain a better understanding of how
modern day diversion developed from the suspended
sentence. The early discussion of diversion is also
fitting for the case study at the end of the chapter.
• Reflecting the recent increase in literature related to
www.cengageasia.com
5
pretrial release and supervision, Chapter 4 contains
updated coverage on the most recent findings in
this area, including an introduction to the Ohio Risk
Assessment System (ORAS) for pretrial.
• Chapter 5, “Classification and Supervision,” includes
increased coverage on emergent practices, such as
motivational interviewing, to be in line with evidencebased practices. The ORAS for community supervision
has been incorporated into this chapter, replacing the
Wisconsin Risk and Needs instrument. The interstate
compact section has been completely rewritten and
updated.
• Chapter 7 incorporates the most recent and updated
literature on revocation as well as solutions for
reducing revocation through graduated sanctions.
• Chapters 10 and 11 on restorative justice and reentry into the community, respectively, have been
significantly revised and expanded to ensure the
most current treatment of these crucial community
corrections issues. Particularly noteworthy
enhancements have been made to the sections on
conferencing, reparation boards, victim impact panels,
and collateral consequences.
• Chapter 13 contains new sections on two approaches
that work with juveniles and their families--functional
family therapy and multisystemic therapy.
• An all-new Chapter 14, “Bringing It All Together:
Practical Solutions for Community-Based Corrections,”
presents a solution-based agenda for applying
the theories introduced in Chapter 1; for instance,
specific deterrence through community supervision.
The participation process model is applied by tying
together concepts of communication, casework
strategies, and leverage. Restorative solutions include
justice reinvestment and restoring civil rights to
offenders who want to legitimately move on with
their lives.
FEATURES
• Providing for maximum reinforcement and student
success, chapters begin with numbered learning
objectives that are linked to corresponding quiz and
test items.
• A decision-making theme gives students opportunities
to apply what they learn to real-world scenarios via
case studies that appear in every chapter. Written
by field practitioners, these exercises combine
theory with real-life practice and can be used in class
discussions or as a basis for writing assignments.

EDITION, 2E
Larry J. Siegel, University of Massachusetts, Lowell; Clemens Bartollas,
University of Northern Iowa
CORRECTIONS TODAY, International Edition is a
briefer, visual, paperback alternative to expensive
hardback Introduction to Corrections texts, ideal
for instructors who are looking for course materials
that present numerous real-world concepts and
applications. It examines the field of corrections
www.cengageasia.com

through the lens of students who are giving serious
thought to a career in the field or are now working
in corrections while seeking an advanced degree in
order to obtain a promotion and/or switch job paths.
CORRECTIONS TODAY, International Edition offers
the most practical, engaging, career-focused, and
authoritative introduction to corrections available.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• A unique new boxed feature in most chapters,
“Evidence-Based Corrections,” highlights evidencebased policies and practices. For example, the box
in Chapter 5 discusses a jail-based assessment
and treatment project that is being tested in Iowa,
focusing on caring for jail inmates suffering from
substance abuse and criminal thinking. Chapter 10
features Arizona’s Getting Ready Program, a commonsense approach to pre-release preparation designed
to reduce post-release recidivism by giving inmates
better coping skills for dealing with the shock of reentry.
• “Careers in Corrections” boxes are more closely tied
to the chapter narrative and extensively revised with
new information that emphasizes criminal justice
education (e.g., how to prepare for a career in “x”).
For example, in Chapter 7, “The Prison Experience:
Males,” students learn how to prepare for a career
as a correctional officer. In Chapter 15, “Today’s
Corrections Professional,” they learn how to prepare
for a career as an internal affairs investigator.
• Expanded discussions illuminate such key topics
as alternatives to confinement and the increase in
community-based corrections, net widening, the
current economic crisis and its impact on corrections,
technology and technological advances in corrections,
probation effectiveness, and how the expansion
of programs and services in corrections has been
effective in reducing recidivism. Coverage of terrorism
has been updated and revised to focus exclusively
on issues of terrorism in corrections, versus more
general discussions such as types of terrorist groups
and torture.
FEATURES
• Gripping, current, high-profile cases are the subject of
the text’s real-life chapter opening vignettes capture
student interest and encourage reading. Chapter
5, for instance, describes the case of Dr. Conrad
Murray, who was found guilty of manslaughter in
the death of his patient, Michael Jackson. Murray
was sentenced to four years in county jail because
of the recent sentencing realignment requiring that
involuntary manslaughter cases not be served in
state prison. The Chapter 6 vignette discusses state
prison closings resulting from the first decline in state
prison populations since 1977, and how this change is
affecting local economies.
• “TechnoCorrections” boxes, updated and increased in
number from five to seven, provide comprehensive
information about the latest technologies. Topics
include a New Jersey pilot project concerning
round-the-clock Global Positioning System (GPS)
monitoring for the state’s most dangerous registered
sex offenders; and possible future technologies,
such as scanning devices that can help detect
illegal contraband, devices that use radio waves to
track prisoner and staff movements, and computer
programs that may help predict where problems are
most likely to occur within correctional institutions.
• Careers in corrections are spotlighted with such
features as “Voices Across the Profession” in every
chapter, which include interviews of working
professionals; “Careers in Corrections” boxes
highlighting various career opportunities, the
background required to pursue them, potential
earnings, benefits, and the future job outlook;
and end-of-chapter “Thinking Like a Corrections
Professional” activities that challenge students to
think critically and problem solve about dilemmas
they are likely to face on the job.
• “Correctional Life” inserts give students a firsthand
glimpse of what it is like to do time at prisons of the
past or the present. The settings examined include the
historic Eastern State Penitentiary as well as today’s
supermax prisons, a life sentence, and a death row
experience. Also featured are an average day in the life
of a probation officer, and the challenge of an inmate
preparing his or her case for appeal.
• Provocative “Myth/Fact” boxes present popular
myths (i.e., “prison rehabilitation efforts are a failure”)
followed by a fact that has been supported by research
in the field, and are sure to generate lively discussion
and debate in the classroom.
• Several chapters have timelines covering the important
events that shaped the history of corrections. These
www.cengageasia.com
7
features give students a sense of the past, tie the past
to the present, and offer a glimpse of what the future
may bring. For example, one timeline depicts the U.S.
Supreme Court’s most important decisions on the
death penalty, offering an indication of the direction
the Court is likely to take on the issue in the future.

AMERICA’S COURTS AND THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM, INTERNATIONAL
EDITION, 11E
David W. Neubauer, University of New Orleans; Henry F. Fradella,
California State University-Long Beach
The premier choice for Courts courses for decades, this
popular text offers a comprehensive explanation of
the courts and the criminal justice system, presented
in a streamlined, straightforward manner that appeals
to instructors and students alike. Neubauer and
Fradella’s crisp and clear writing, characterized by
the organization of material into brief sections within
chapters, ensures that readers gain a firm handle on
the material. At the same time, the text’s innovative
“courtroom workhouse” model, which focuses on
the interrelationships among the judge, prosecutor,
and defense attorney, brings the courtroom to life.
AMERICA’S COURTS AND THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM, 11E, International Edition has long been known
for the way it gives students a true glimpse what it is like
to work within the American criminal justice system.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• Completely revised and thoroughly updated,
AMERICA’S COURTS AND THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM, 11E, International Edition is now a 17-chapter
text (versus 19 chapters in the previous edition),
which aligns more easily with the average semester
length. Reorganizing and streamlining material not
only yields a briefer book with fewer chapters, it also
results in earlier coverage of lower courts, including
traffic offenses, justices of the peace, and municipal
courts – issues which students often find among the
book’s most engaging and relevant.
• Increased coverage of contemporary issues facing
America’s courts includes media coverage of trials,
forensics and its effect on juries and courtrooms, the
CSI effect, decision-making and tracking technology,
wrongful conviction, and much more.
• The ever-increasing role of technology has been
greatly expanded throughout the text, with discussion
of how technology has affected the courts in ways
ranging from electronic monitoring of offenders to
social media in the courtroom.
• Updated features in each chapter provide a
contemporary lens for students to understand the
dynamics and complexities affecting America’s courts
today. “Law, Courts and Media,” “Case-Up Close,” and
“Courts and Controversy” boxes include topics such as
Is It Time to End the War on Drugs?, Should DUI and
Distracted Driving Prosecutions Be Increased?, Should
Juveniles Be Tried as Adults?, The Casey Anthony Trial,
American Gangster, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,
and many other contemporary examples and issues.
FEATURES
• This best-selling text on criminal courts features a
unique emphasis on courthouse dynamics, which gives
students a true sense of “being in the courthouse.”
• The book’s unique themes--the law on the books, the
law in action, and the law in controversy--provide
students with a means of focusing on important issues
and how to think critically about them.
• “Case Close-Up” boxes in each chapter present an
important court decision that has affected our nation’s
criminal justice system. These boxes also highlight the
dynamic nature of courts in the United States.
• The Eleventh Edition features three appendices:
the U.S. Constitution; An Overview of the United
States Constitution, focusing on those parts of the
Constitution that describe the judicial system; and
Legal Reasoning, an explanation of adjudication as the

CONSTITUTIONAL LAW AND THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, 6E
J. Scott Harr, Metropolitan State University and Normandale
Community College; Kären Matison Hess, Normandale Community
College; Christine Hess Orthmann; Jonathan Kingsbury, St. Cloud
State University
Unrivaled in its simplicity and skill-building pedagogy,
market-leading CONSTITUTIONAL LAW AND THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, 6th Edition, thoroughly
explains the complexities of the U.S. Constitution and
the criminal justice system. Extremely student friendly,
the text avoids “legalese” and is packed with real-world
illustrations. Its unique and effective pedagogical
framework for concept mastery helps readers develop
a solid understanding of key issues and concepts,
while more than 200 plainly written, summarized
cases introduce readers to pertinent cases in a nonintimidating manner. The text devotes considerable
time to the Fourth and Fifth Amendments, exploring
their application to issues relevant to criminal justice:
reasonable search and seizure, double jeopardy, and
testifying against oneself. The sixth edition includes
expanded discussions of the First and Second
Amendments as well as cutting-edge coverage of such
high-profile topics as immigration, terrorism/homeland
security, death row, and many others.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• This edition has been streamlined, with the number
of chapters reduced from 14 to 13. At the same
time, it includes expanded coverage of the First and
Second Amendments, updates to all Supreme Court
and lower court decisions and cases as appropriate,
and increased coverage of the post-9/11 policing
environment.
• New “Myth/Reality” marginal insets correct
misperceptions on text-related topics. For example,
a myth in Chapter 1 states that the U. S. government
is a democracy, followed by the reality that the
Constitution established the U.S. government as a
republic. A myth in Chapter 3 states that when the
Supreme Court denies certiorari, it is effectively
upholding the ruling of the court below it, thus setting
precedent. The reality: When certiorari is denied, the
Court is expressing neither approval nor disapproval
of the lower court’s ruling--it is simply refusing to
consider the case.
• New “Case in Brief” snapshots accompany key cases,
encapsulating the decision and its ramifications for
students who struggle with case law and language.
For example, a box in Chapter 6 quickly summarizes
the basic issue in the 2010 case McDonald v. City of
Chicago (“Is the Second Amendment applicable to
the states?”) and the decision (“Yes.”).
FEATURES
• “In the News” boxes use recent headline cases to
vividly illustrate chapter material.
• “Constitutional Law in Action” features offer
additional examples of key chapter concepts in
practice--including proper and improper police
actions and the results--and are concluded with
debate questions to stimulate critical thinking and
class discussion.
• Each chapter begins with 8-12 numbered learning
objectives that are matched to individual bullet
www.cengageasia.com
10
points in the end-of-chapter summary for maximum
learning reinforcement. In addition, each item in
the accompanying Test Bank is linked to a learning
objective.
• The authors’ signature four-point learning system
helps students truly master chapter concepts. The
beginning of each chapter includes “Do You Know?”
questions that present key concepts and learning
objectives, while “Can You Define These Terms?”
lists provide key words students need to know
to understand the chapter material. Highlights
throughout each chapter answer the questions. In
addition, end-of-chapter material includes a summary
and discussion questions, which further reinforce
key chapter concepts while encouraging students to
critically examine those concepts.
• The text presents small segments of case law so as to
avoid overwhelming students.
• Chapter 6, “The Second Amendment: The Gun Control
Controversy,” provides an extensive examination of
an individual’s right to bear arms, a topic not typically
covered with any depth by constitutional law texts
designed for criminal justice and political science
departments.

Judy Hails, California State University, Long Beach
Practical and reader-friendly, the eighth edition of
CRIMINAL EVIDENCE continues to offer students
comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of all evidentiary
topics common in criminal proceedings in a brief,
affordable format. The text thoroughly explores
constitutional issues essential to the collection and
seizure of admissible evidence and legal interrogation,
carefully outlining concepts and processes applicable
to every state and pointing out where great interstate
variation exists or specific state codes may have a strong
impact. The text also covers current trends and topics
that students will likely encounter in the real world,
such as terrorism and homeland security, scientific
evidence, Federal Rules of Evidence, hearsay, and the
appellate system. Realistic case scenarios prepare
students to apply their knowledge and skills in the
real world as working law enforcement professionals.

CRIMINAL PROCEDURE, 9E
Joel Samaha, University of Minnesota
This straightforward introduction to criminal procedure
combines case excerpts with clear, detailed legal
discussion and analysis to give students a solid
understanding of the field. The book’s longtime success
can be attributed to its widely acclaimed author and his
unique ability to help readers grasp the complexities
of law by clearly presenting all sides of an issue.
Dr. Samaha has a passion for wanting students to
understand why procedures are as they are--instead
of simply memorizing them. As a result, while most
criminal procedure texts focus exclusively on “how to,”
Samaha combines “how” and “why.” The Ninth Edition
addresses the entire criminal procedure process--from
search and seizure to post-conviction sentencing and
review by appellate courts--while providing extensive
case updates and new or expanded coverage of such
key topics as the changing political nature of the
Supreme Court, forensic evidence, terrorism, enhanced
interrogation, military courts, immigration law, mass
domestic violence, gun control, and more.

the cutting edge by presenting real-world criminal law
issues from this increasingly high-profile area, which
is overlooked in other criminal procedure texts that
focus exclusively on traditional “street” crime.

doctrines, and rules of criminal procedure examined
in the text, “Case Excerpts” teach students to
understand concepts by applying them to the facts

This edition includes the latest insights into political
crime; terrorism; white-collar, blue-collar, and greencollar crime; cyber crime; transnational crime; and

influence peddling, corporate crime), and greencollar crime (worker safety/environmental crimes;
illegal logging, wildlife exports, and fishing; dumping
and polluting) are discussed in detail. New sections

crimes.

CRIMINOLOGY, INTERNATIONAL
EDITION, 11E
Larry J. Siegel, University of Massachusetts, Lowell
Siegel’s best-selling CRIMINOLOGY, International
Edition, provides a comprehensive analysis of
criminological theory, crime typologies, and the
criminal justice system. Renowned for its unbiased
presentation of theories, issues, and controversies,
this edition presents cutting-edge, seminal research,
as well as up-to-the-minute policy and newsworthy
examples. Still the gold standard for criminology
courses, Siegel’s text now addresses contemporary
topics such as transnational/global crime, political
crimes, “green” crime and “green criminology,” and
the “new millennium order of criminality.” With its
updates and array of supplements, CRIMINOLOGY,
International Edition, offers a powerful set of teaching
and learning tools for instructors and students alike.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• New! This edition features expanded coverage of
many important topics, such as the causes of violence,
transnational/global crime, political crimes, “green”
crime and “green criminology”--eco issues and
crime, corporations involved in ecological crimes,
how ecological crises affect criminal behavior-environmental crimes (the criminal investigation
into the BP oil spill), and the “new millennium order
of criminality,” illustrating how prominent issues are
closely tied to our increasingly technology-driven
society
• New! Part III, Crime Typologies, now includes
coverage of two emerging criminological issues:
global and environmental crime (Chapter 13) and
transnational organized crime (Chapter 15). These
two newly expanded chapters address the fact that
crime is evolving in the new millennium and that
criminologists must be aware of emerging trends
and patterns.
• New! A more student friendly Chapter 1 now focuses
exclusively on what criminology is, what criminologists
do, ethics, and a basic overview of crime and criminal
law. (Historical coverage from the old Chapter 1 is now
integrated throughout the text; the theory chapters
provide historical coverage of each major theoretical
school as the theory is presented.)
• New! The Eleventh Edition of CRIMINOLOGY now
has even more case studies and numerous new
examples in every chapter to illustrate the concepts
and theories of criminology. Every chapter features
two to three “Profiles in Crime,” most of which are
new to this edition. To name just a few, readers will
find coverage of Robert Moffat (IBM executive who
pleaded guilty to securities crimes), the Deepwater
Horizon environmental disaster, Philip Markoff
(infamous “Craigslist Murderer”), debit card skimming
devices, and much more.
• New! The “Thinking Like a Criminologist │An Ethical
Dilemma” features are all new to this edition. Now
integrated into each chapter, they introduce a new
ethics focus and include an array of activities the
instructor may assign for students to work through,
including individual writing assignments, group
www.cengageasia.com
28
activities, and pro/con debates.
FEATURES
• Still the most broad-based, balanced presentation
of criminology theory, law, policy, and practice
available, Siegel’s CRIMINOLOGY, Eleventh Edition,
offers a unique, cutting-edge feel and an unbiased
presentation of theories, issues, and controversies.
Unrivaled, it remains the gold standard for criminology
courses.
• To provide maximum learning reinforcement, each
chapter now begins with numbered learning objectives
that are carefully matched to end-of-chapter summary
sections and linked to corresponding quiz/test items
in the accompanying Test Bank, CourseMate Website,
and Study Guide.
• Renowned for his unbiased presentation of theories,
issues, and controversies, Siegel avoids ideological
biases and encourages students to weigh the
evidence and form their own conclusions. He focuses
on showing students the connection between
criminological theory and the formulation of criminal
justice policy.
• Proven box features like “Connections” help students
link issues and questions addressed in one chapter
to other topics in the text. “The Criminological
Enterprise” focuses on important new research efforts
in criminology. “Policy and Practice in Criminology”
describes crucial policy issues and innovative
programs. “Race, Culture, Gender, and Criminology”
boxes explore research on how diversity influences
crime.
• The popular “Profiles in Crime” case studies illustrating
a particular criminological theory or topic from the
chapter have been expanded.

NEW TO THIS EDITION
• Chapter 15, now entitled “Crimes of the New
Millennium,” is completely revised and focuses on
the development and activities of contemporary
crossnational and transnational crime groups,
including Eastern European gangs, Latin American and
Mexican drug cartels, and Asian transnational crime
groups. A new section shows that these gangs--whose
members often use cell phones and the Internet to
communicate and promote their illicit activities--are
a product of the cyber age. A new “Race, Gender
and Culture in Criminology” feature examines drug
production and trafficking in the golden triangle.
• Chapter 13, “Enterprise Crime: White Collar and
Green-Collar Collar Crime,” has been broadened
to divide crimes of illicit entrepreneurship into
two categories: white-collar and green-collar. New
discussions examine green-collar crimes (involving
environmental harm), forms of green crime, and
the enforcement of environmental laws. Coverage
includes illegal logging, illegal wildlife exports, illegal
fishing, illegal dumping, and illegal polluting. Two new
sections cover the mortgage swindles that threatened
to destroy the financial system and the foreclosure
rescue scams designed to prey upon people who
obtained mortgages and could not make payments.
• Expanded coverage of the evolution of criminal law
in Chapter 1 includes recent cases regarding stalking
laws, prohibiting assisted suicide, registering sex
offenders, and clarification of rape laws; recent laws
affecting the use of technology in peoples’ daily
lives, environmental protection, and legalization
of marijuana; and changes in both substantive and
procedural criminal laws in the aftermath of 9/11.
• Chapter 2, “The Nature and Extent of Crime,” has
expanded coverage of the role socialization and
social structure play in explaining racial differences
in crime rates. A new section on immigration and
crime discusses the effects of legal changes on limits
to immigration and/or public opinion. This new
material cites recent research findings showing that
immigrants have lower crime rates than native born
Americans.
• Chapter 8, “Social Conflict, Critical Criminology,
and Restorative Justice” includes discussion of state
(organized) crime--criminal acts committed by elected
or appointed state officials in pursuit of their jobs
as government representatives. A “Criminological
Enterprise” (“Mass Deception”) covers Scott Bonn’s
new book in which he argues that the George W.
Bush administration manufactured public support
for war on Iraq. Other new sections cover crime and
social institutions, illegal domestic surveillance, and
human rights violations. Sections on Left Realism are
updated and expanded.
FEATURES
• “Profiles in Crime” insets present case studies of actual
criminals and crimes to help illustrate the position or
views within the chapter. By popular demand, the
feature is expanded in this edition, presenting even
more real-life “from the headlines” criminal cases.
Chapter 2 presents a profile highlighting the 2009
case of a Harrisburg, Pennsylvania-based prostitution
ring that was broken up by Federal, State and County
investigators. Chapter 10’s profile tells how Jeffrey
Conroy and six other Long Island, New York teenagers
decided to hunt and assault Hispanic men, which led
to murder.
• “Criminological Enterprise” boxed review important
issues in criminology and reflect the field’s major
sub-areas, measuring crime, creating theory, crime
typologies, legal theory, and penology. For instance, a
box in Chapter 4 covers recent work of criminologist
Scott Jacques, who investigated the forms of drug
market retaliation and found they followed a rational
pattern. A box in Chapter 7 discusses the work of
Rand Conger, a leading expert on family life who has
been involved with community studies examining the
influence of economic stress on families, children,
and adolescents.
• “Policy and Practice in Criminology” boxes show how
criminological ideas and research can be put into
action. For example, a box in Chapter 2 discusses
The Crime Analysis Tactical Clearing House (CATCH),
an innovative mapping program that supports local
law enforcement agencies in analyzing crime series
and patterns using a number of crime mapping and
analysis software applications and techniques. A box
in Chapter 8 discusses Victim Offender Reconciliation
in Denver, Colorado, a program designed in response
to a summer of violence in the metro Denver area.
• “Race, Culture, Gender, and Criminology” boxes cover
issues of racial, sexual and cultural diversity. For
example, a feature in Chapter 2 entitled On the Run
www.cengageasia.com
30
looks at the life of inner city kids who spend their time
avoiding the police. A new “Race, Gender and Culture
in Criminology” feature in Chapter 15 examines drug
production and trafficking in the golden triangle.
• “Thinking Like a Criminologist: An Ethical Dilemma”
boxes present challenging questions or issues
for which students must use their criminological
knowledge to answer or confront ethical dilemmas.
Applying the information learned in the text will help
students begin to “think like criminologists.”

SEXUAL OFFENSES AND OFFENDERS, 2E
Theory, Practice, and Policy, International Edition
Karen J. Terry, John Jay College of Criminal Justice
This comprehensive text examines the unique
characteristics of sexual offenses and the resulting laws
that pertain specifically to them, including the causes
and treatment of sexual offenses as well as the policy
implications of research outcomes. Sexual offenders
are often treated differently than other offenders (by
both the community and the criminal justice system) as
a result of public scorn and recidivism. This distinctive
book answers the call for thorough, research-based
information on this inherently controversial subject.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• Two all-new chapters are included in this edition--one
on sexual offending in institutional settings (such as
the Church, prison, and the military), and the other
on sexual offending and the Internet.
• High-profile cases--including Jerry Sandusky,
Genarlow Wilson, Justin Berry, and others--are
discussed in depth, enhancing the book’s relevancy
by showing how the theory and policy presented in
the text apply in the real world.
• Expanded coverage of important topics includes
discussions of assessment/treatment (e.g., probation/
therapist collaboration, polygraphs, and worker
burnout), child pornography/prostitution, offender
re-entry into the community, sentencing, human
trafficking, and many others.
FEATURES
• This text offers the most comprehensive coverage
of sex offenders and their treatment by the criminal
justice system of any other book on the market. In
addition to providing information on the investigation
and prosecution of sexual offenders, it also presents a
thorough discussion of the definition, incidence, and
prevalence of sex offenses.
• Noted sex abuse scholar Karen Terry has done
extensive research in the area and was the principal
investigator on the Catholic Church sex abuse study,
which was commissioned by the U.S. Bishops’ National
Review Board and released in the spring of 2004 by
John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
• Part II, “Responses to Sexual Offenders,” examines
the policing, supervision, and management of
sexual offenders as well as the important issue of
reducing recidivism, reflected in states’ constant
implementation or modification of laws to better
manage the behavior of sex offenders.
• The text addresses legal issues such as Megan’s Law
and Sexually Violent Predator legislation, and goes
into great detail about why people abuse--including
theories, the offense cycle, and issues related to the
www.cengageasia.com
31
maintenance of offending behavior.
• To help students synthesize and retain material, the
text includes comprehensive Chapter Summaries.
End-of-chapter Discussion Questions promote critical
thinking and the sharing of ideas in the classroom.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN ACTION, 8E
Larry K. Gaines, California State University, San Bernardino; Roger
LeRoy Miller, Institute for University Studies, Arlington, Texas
As riveting and current as today’s headlines, CRIMINAL
JUSTICE IN ACTION, Eighth Edition, is designed with
today’s busy students and instructors in mind. Concepts
make sense to students, thanks to vivid straight-fromthe-headlines vignettes at the beginning of every
chapter and plentiful real-world examples throughout.
Choosing what’s important to remember is a snap
with each chapter’s numbered objectives, which are
reinforced throughout the chapter as well as in the
book’s supplementary items. Thinking critically and
writing become less intimidating for students with
the guidance of practical writing activities. Reviewers
praise the book’s crisp, clear topic coverage as much
as its engaging magazine-style design and captivating
writing, which combine to draw students--even today’s
visual learners--into the material. Updated throughout,
the Eighth Edition includes more material on victims,
a stronger emphasis on domestic terrorism, a new
emphasis on social media, and more.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• All-new chapter opening vignettes help students see
the relevance of chapter material and draw them into
the reading. Examples include a look into the possible
reasons behind James Holmes’ actions in 2012 when
he killed 12 moviegoers and wounded 58 others in
Colorado (Chapter 2); two sides of law enforcement’s
relationship with social media (Chapter 6); and an
explanation for the jail sentence handed down in
2012 to Dharun Ravi, convicted of invasion of privacy
and bias intimidation for viewing Tyler Clementi-who later committed suicide--with another man via
a webcam (Chapter 11).
• Chapters 16 and 17 from the seventh edition have been
combined into a single chapter, “Today’s Challenges:
Cyber Crime, White Collar Crime, and International
Terrorism.” This change reduces the total number
of chapters to sixteen, providing a better match for
semester-length classes.
• Chapter 3, “Defining and Measuring Crime,” presents
a major new focus on victims in the criminal justice
system. Victimization also has a greater presence
where appropriate throughout the text. For example,
Chapter 1 contains an introduction to victim issues,
Chapter 11 addresses the role that victims play in
determining punishment, Chapter 12 discusses the
role that victims play in the parole decision, and
Chapter 15 includes a discussion of juvenile victims.
• A new social media feature in the margins directs
students to their browser to search for a website--the
FBI’s Twitter account, for example, or the Electronic
Privacy Information Center’s Facebook page--where
they can access a ready stream of information
concerning various aspects of American criminal
justice.
• New “Social Media Career Tips” have been added to
each “Careers in CJ” feature to familiarize students
with the ways in which these new tools can be both
helpful and harmful to Criminal Justice professionals.
• New “Countering Domestic Terrorism” features
address this growing threat, discussing homegrown
terrorists, the diversity of hate, protecting sensitive
installations, and much more.
• The material on parole has been moved to Chapter
12 and combined with coverage of probation. A new
Chapter 12 title, “Probation, Parole, and Community
Corrections,” reflects this change.
• The layout of each chapter title page more clearly
connects the Learning Objectives to the chapter’s
headings. Each chapter continues to have eight to
ten Learning Objectives, which are placed within the
margins of the chapter to highlight the content, and
then used as the basis for the chapter summary. This
effective integrated system of Learning Objectives
reinforces student understanding and aids in learning

FEATURES
• CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN ACTION remains the most
career-oriented text available--with plentiful firstperson accounts of criminal justice jobs to expose
students to the wide range of rewarding careers
available in the field as well as to essential facts on
each career choice, including job qualifications, annual
salary range, and the new Social Media Career tips
described above.
• “CJ and Technology” coverage, while easily identifiable,
is integrated into the narrative so students are less
likely to skip over technological innovations that are
crucial to today’s criminal justice system. Examples
include the use of biometrics in police work, the
use of transdermal alcohol testing, and the future of
fingerprinting.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN AMERICA,
INTERNATIONAL EDITION, 7E
George F. Cole, University of Connecticut; Christopher E. Smith,
Michigan State University; Christina DeJong, Michigan State
University
In CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN AMERICA, 7E, International
Edition George Cole, Christopher Smith, and new
coauthor Christina DeJong have accomplished much
within a brief format. They provide discussion of
today’s hottest careers, international comparisons,
writing challenges, and real-world applications--all
within a unique interdisciplinary framework. This
concise introductory criminal justice text shows
students the field’s real-world opportunities while
giving them a broad understanding of how and
why public policy impacts criminal justice as it is
practiced today. Created as an alternative to more
expensive, encyclopedic introductory texts, this
reader-friendly best seller incorporates ideas, themes,
and theories from criminology, sociology, law, history,
psychology, and political science. In addition to a strong
interdisciplinary emphasis, CRIMINAL JUSTICE IN
AMERICA, 7E, International Edition teaches students to
become better citizens by helping them think critically
about what justice means in our society and how
individuals can play a role in defining that meaning.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• Unique new coverage illuminates the ways in which
the downturn of the U.S. economy, and resulting
budget reductions, are affecting all segments of the
criminal justice system. Discussions examine staff
and budget cuts in police departments and courts,
the shifting of police resource allocation strategies,
reductions in enforcement of lesser offenses,
initiatives to reduce the use of imprisonment through
community corrections, expanded parole, reentry
www.cengageasia.com
39
planning, the cost differences between probation
and imprisonment, and the effects of cutbacks on the
testing of criminal evidence.
• The Seventh Edition incorporates an increased
emphasis on critical thinking. New critical thinking
questions and assignments have been added to
each set of “Checkpoint” questions throughout the
text. These brief “Stop and Analyze” sections ask
students to analyze and briefly give reasons for their
conclusions about a key, debatable issue raised in
that section of the book. Additionally, critical thinking
questions have been added to each “What Americans
Think” feature to better link those features to the
issues and discussions in the chapters in which they
appear.
• “Question of Ethics” features are all new. Rather than
simply posing hypothetical scenarios with obvious
answers as many books do, each one now uses a
recent news story about an actual event to bring
timely, relevant ethical questions to the fore. To
enhance critical thinking, students are asked to place
themselves in the roles of police chiefs, judges, and
other officials--and use those perspectives to present
policies and action steps to address the “real world”
ethical problems.
• Additional “Policy Debates” sections--which
encourage lively discussion and debate by describing
a policy issue such as aggressive policing or the death
penalty and outlining its pros and cons--have been
included to heighten currency. For example, the
“Policy Debate” box in Chapter 3 looks at the question
of whether or not ex-felons’ gun ownership rights
should be restored.
FEATURES
• To provide maximum learning reinforcement, each
chapter begins with numbered learning objectives
that are carefully matched to end-of-chapter summary
sections and linked to corresponding quiz or test items
in the accompanying Test Bank, PowerPoint® slides,
CourseMate website, and Study Guide.
• The authors’ widely lauded interdisciplinary approach
draws on research from criminology, law, history,
sociology, psychology, and political science. This
treatment facilitates a deeper understanding of
the American criminal justice system by examining
subjects such as social systems, social problems,
determinants of individual behavior, government
processes, policy making, and conceptions of morality
and justice.
• “Close-up” essays and other real-life examples
throughout the text draw on material from newspaper
articles, court decisions, first-person accounts,
and other current sources to show students the
human implications of criminal justice policies and
procedures.
• “Technology Issues in Criminal Justice” features in
each chapter show students how the police, courts,
and corrections have made the criminal justice system
more effective through the use of innovations such
as nonlethal weapons, patrol car computers, behavior
modification, stalker trackers, and other advanced
technology.
• Interactive “What Americans Think” features
throughout the book give students the opportunity
to review public opinion polls on controversial issues
and then go online to vote for themselves. “Inside
the Criminal Justice System and Beyond: One Man’s
Journey,” a serialized essay by Chuck Terry that
concludes each part of the book, provides a rare
insider’s look at the steps in the criminal justice
process.
• “Careers in Criminal Justice” boxes feature profiles of
people working in the field and current information
on real-world job qualifications, outlooks, salaries,
and more, such as growing opportunities with the
U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency of the
Department of Homeland Security.

ESSENTIALS OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE, 9E
Larry J. Siegel, University of Massachusetts, Lowell; John L. Worrall,
University of Texas at Dallas
One of the few bestselling introductory criminal
justice texts written by professors who actively teach
the undergraduate course each year, ESSENTIALS OF
CRIMINAL JUSTICE, Ninth Edition, is uniquely attuned
to the needs of today’s students and instructors.
This brief introduction to the criminal justice system
provides students with thorough, objective coverage of
all the latest research in the field, cutting-edge topical
and case discussions, and the richest examination of
career options to be found in a criminal justice text-all in fewer than 500 pages. The text is ideal for those
who want the proven reliability of Siegel and Worrall’s
authorship in a shorter, paperback presentation.
Impeccable scholarship is made accessible through
the use of integrated learning objectives, plentiful
visuals, and a unique “Reality-Check” theme designed to
disabuse students of the incorrect notions, perceptions,
and biases they bring to the class as a result of what
they see on television or the Internet. And now, a
unique new focus on understanding ethical issues gives
students opportunities to grapple with ethical concerns
faced by agents of the criminal justice system in their
professional lives.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• A new focus on understanding ethical issues gives
students unparalleled opportunities to grapple with
many of the ethical concerns faced by agents of the
criminal justice system in their professional lives.
• Each chapter begins with a new real-life case vignette
that reflects an ethical challenge in criminal justice.
For example, Chapter 3 opens with the story of
Jennifer Jorgensen, who was sentenced to three to
nine years in prison for a car crash in which she was
driving without a seatbelt, causing the death of her
unborn child. The discussion reflects on the ethics
of the case, i.e., is it fair to charge someone like
Jorgenson with manslaughter even though she had
no intent to kill her unborn child?
• In support of the stronger emphasis on ethics, new
“Ethical Reflections” boxes throughout each chapter
challenge students to apply their own sense of ethics
to everyday decision-making. These boxes provide
further discussion and reinforcement of the ethical
issue introduced in the chapter opener.
• Revised “Ethical Challenge” features now include more
background information, making these activities more
approachable for students and more easily assignable
for instructors. These features present controversial
topics in criminal justice and ask students to address
the ethical dilemma posed by the issue in an essay.
• New “WebApps” throughout the book offer a
variety of activities for further research and reading,
identifying websites that contain valuable information
to enrich the textual material.
• “Careers in Criminal Justice” boxes include a new
“Reality Check” section that discusses the potential
pitfalls of the career area, as well as what might
disqualify a person from the career or job being
highlighted. New careers introduced in this edition
include Loss Prevention Specialist in Chapter 4 and
Crime Analyst in Chapter 5.
FEATURES
• The “CSI effect” deals instructors one of their greatest
challenges. The text’s myth-busting “RealityCheck”
theme meets the challenge head on, helping students
replace the fiction they’ve seen on television or the
Internet with a solid understanding of the realities
of the criminal justice system. Chapter-opening
“RealityCheck” statements highlight common
misperceptions about crime and the American
criminal justice system. Throughout the chapter,
marginal “RealityCheck” insets spotlight where these
myths are countered or dispelled. Focus questions
encourage critical thinking and discussion.
• Providing maximum reinforcement and promoting
student success, chapters begin with numbered
learning objectives that are carefully matched to
end-of-chapter summary sections--as well as linked
www.cengageasia.com
41
to ancillary quiz and test items.
• “Criminal Justice and Technology” boxes review some
of the more recent scientific advances that can aid the
justice system. In Chapter 12, for example, “Monitoring
People and Places in Prison” looks at how technology
now enables prison administrators to keep track
of dangerous inmates and also monitor the most
dangerous places on the prison grounds.
• “Contemporary Issues in Criminal Justice” boxed
features highlight evidence-based criminal justice
policies and practices, helping students to think
critically about current justice issues. For example, a
box in Chapter 2 reviews the issues surrounding gun
control and the Constitution, another in Chapter 11
looks at the problems faced by elderly inmates, and
a box in Chapter 12 discusses criminal records and
reentry success.

NEW TO THIS EDITION
• A new feature, “The Victim Experience,” provides a
brief story of a real experience, a big picture section
that places the experience in context, and a classroom
exercise. For instance, “From Vigilantism to United
Victims” in Chapter 5 discusses victims who band
together and take matters into their own hands.
The feature discusses citizens who assisted police
(such as Philadelphians who set up cameras to help
catch perpetrators of a rash of vandalism in their
neighborhood), as well as situations in which victims
acted independently and became vigilantes, like
Bernhard Goetz.
• Expanded coverage of private policing and private
security, loss prevention, and asset protection makes
the text ideal for introductory criminal justice courses
in the growing number of departments that are
increasing their emphasis on these issues in the wake
of municipal budgetary cutbacks.
• Based on reviewer feedback, Part Three has been
streamlined by combining materials formerly in
Chapters 9 (courts and judiciary) and 10 (prosecution
and defense) into a new chapter, “Court Structure and
Personnel”. This change provides even more balanced
treatment across the topics of police, courts, and
corrections.
FEATURES
• Each chapter opens with fascinating accounts of
high-profile, real-life cases illustrating key concepts,
encouraging students to immediately begin absorbing
and applying course material.
• To provide maximum learning reinforcement, each
chapter’s learning objectives are carefully integrated
within the text, matched to end-of-chapter summary
sections, and linked to corresponding quiz/test items
in the accompanying Test Bank, Study Guide, and
CourseMate (the book’s website).
• Each question in the “Instructor Approved” Test Bank
is carefully reviewed by experienced instructors
for quality, accuracy, and content coverage. The
“Instructor Approved” seal appears on the front cover
of the supplement as our assurance that instructors
are working with an assessment and grading resource
of the highest caliber.
• “Professional Spotlight” part openers exemplify the
text’s emphasis on career opportunities in the field.
These “guest speaker” openers feature professionals
offering some insight or experience that puts their
criminal justice career in a positive light.
• Several other features throughout the text help
students understand and apply what they are learning
within a realistic and current criminal justice context,
including:
• -”Key Cases” reflect the latest developments in case
law and highlight important cases in policing, courts,
corrections, juvenile justice, and homeland security.
• -”Evolution of Case” use a particular case to show how
the law has evolved over time with related decisions
and cases.

THE AMERICAN SYSTEM OF CRIMINAL
JUSTICE, 14E
George F. Cole, University of Connecticut; Christopher E. Smith,
Michigan State University; Christina DeJong, Michigan State
University
This classic best seller, commonly referred to as “The
Eagle,” helps students discover the meaning of justice
in our society and identify the roles individuals play in
the criminal justice system. Examining criminal justice
through an interdisciplinary lens, THE AMERICAN
SYSTEM OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE, 14th Edition, presents
elements from criminology, sociology, law, history,
psychology, and political science, and challenges
students to balance the mechanics of the system with
its human components. The text offers a relevant
introduction to the field with solid scholarship and
approachable writing, and holds student attention with
current, compelling events and cases. The combination
of these elements helps prepare students to participate
in the system as citizens and future criminal justice
practitioners.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• Thoroughly updated, this edition also includes a
new emphasis on the importance of evidence-based
practice in criminal justice. The contemporary effort
to apply systematic social science research to shape
criminal justice policies and practices is highlighted
through numerous examples in “New Directions
in Criminal Justice Policy features.” Topics include
evidence-based practices concerning the release of
sex offenders into the community, the physical and
psychological well-being of police officers, police
patrol emphases on “hot spots” and problem-oriented
policing, and public surveillance technology.
• The “Question of Ethics” features at the end of each
chapter are all new, and now emphasize examples
drawn from news reports. Topics include police
honesty in conducting stops and filing reports on
crimes, questioning suspects, use of force, and judges’
behavior. These features give students an opportunity
to role play and hone their ethical decision-making
skills. Each “dilemma” presented is followed by a
“Critical Thinking and Analysis” writing exercise.
• New technology topics include emerging issues
such as transnational cybercrimes, the epidemic of
smartphone thefts, police use of predictive software,
license plate readers, and domestic use of aerial
drones for law enforcement purposes. There is also
new material on transnational crimes, recurring
victimization, decriminalization of marijuana, use of
smartphones by patrol officers, specialized courts,
terrorism, and many other key topics.
FEATURES
• Each chapter includes several “Stop and Analyze”
critical thinking features. These higher-order questions
check students’ understanding of what they have just
read; some questions challenge students to develop
arguments and conclusions about their own positions.
“Debating the Issue” sections within the text’s boxed
inserts can be used to spur classroom discussion or
as writing assignments.
• “Technology and Criminal Justice” features highlight
important new technologies that affect the system
today. For example, Chapter 2 provides a discussion
of the ways in which technologies such as cell
phones and social media are being used both in the
commission of, and in the investigation of, criminal
activities. In Chapter 9, a boxed feature introduces
technological innovations in jail administration.
• The text’s primary themes--1) criminal justice as a
social system, including multiple subsystems, and 2)
criminal justice as an interdisciplinary endeavor based
on criminology, sociology, law, history, psychology,
and political science--broaden your students’
perspectives on criminal justice.
• “Civic Engagement: Your Role in the System” expands
on the civic engagement theme introduced in Chapter
1. After presenting real-life examples, this feature
prompts students to apply what they are learning to
a deeper exploration of the topic, and then compare
their response to real-world results via the Internet.
• Because public opinion plays an important role in
the policy-making process in a democracy, the text
www.cengageasia.com
45
features unique “What Americans Think” insets to
engage students through the use of public opinion
polls on controversial criminal justice issues. This
feature allows students to see how their opinions
compare with the national perspective.
• “Close Up” boxes provide real-life examples that draw
on newspapers, court decisions, first-person accounts,
and other current sources, illustrating how theory
plays out in practice as well as the human implications
of policies and procedures in criminal justice.
• “New Directions in Criminal Justice Policy” delivers
unparalleled coverage of policy issues, showing how
criminal justice policy affects the system as well as the
role of public opinion in policy formation.

Efforts to combat one aspect of the phenomenon,

become more sophisticated and more threatening,
and additional crime groups have been added to the
pantheon we refer to as organized crime. Reflecting
changes that have occurred in recent years, this edition

New York City, his work for the Sheriff’s Office in
Cook County, Illinois, and hours of interviews with
organized crime figures.
• Consistently praised for its clear analysis of the
definitions and attributes of organized crime, the text
is also known for its careful use of theory, substantial

Samuel Walker’s SENSE AND NONSENSE ABOUT
CRIME, DRUGS, AND COMMUNITIES, International
Edition was one of the first books to challenge
common misconceptions about crime, and the new
Seventh Edition remains uniquely effective at doing
so. Described as a “masterful critique” of American
policies on everything from crime control, to guns, to
drugs, this incisive text cuts through popular myths
and political rhetoric to confront both conservative and
liberal propositions in the context of current research
and proven practice. The result is a distinctly lucid,
research-based work that stimulates critical thinking
and enlivens class discussions. This engaging text
captures the full complexity of the administration of
justice while providing students with a clear sense of
its key principles and general patterns.
NEW TO THIS EDITION
• A new section on state sex offender registration,
notification, and residency restriction laws cites
substantial evidence indicating that these restrictions
www.cengageasia.com
51
are not effective, because they apply to many
offenders who are not serious predators and do not
pose a risk to the community, they overwhelm criminal
justice officials and prevent them from effectively
monitoring offenders who pose a genuine recidivism
risk, and they often prevent people from finding a
decent place to live.
• New and expanded coverage of drug courts discusses
them in the context of other relevant programs in
policing and prosecution in order to develop a central
theme of carefully designed, narrowly focused,
problem-oriented approaches, giving the current
edition a more positive and hopeful orientation, rather
than merely emphasizing what does not work.
• The Seventh Edition of SENSE AND NONSENSE
ABOUT CRIME, DRUGS, AND COMMUNITIES
restores the cartoons that were a distinctive and
popular feature of earlier editions, updating this
favorite element with an entirely new set of amusing
and insightful illustrations by cartoonist Frank Irwin,
which give the book an appealing new look.

FEATURES
• The groundbreaking original edition of SENSE
AND NONSENSE ABOUT CRIME, DRUGS, AND
COMMUNITIES was one of the first books to
challenge common misconceptions about crime
and to pointedly criticize policies based on those
misconceptions, and each subsequent edition
has built on this legacy of honest assessment and
research-based analysis.
• With a strong emphasis on current research and
proven practices, Walker cuts through popular myths
and political rhetoric to challenge both liberal and
conservative policies and the underlying beliefs and
assumptions that give rise to them.
• A full chapter, entitled “Crime and Community,”
provides an extensive discussion of communityfocused crime prevention policies, including
community prosecution, offender re-entry programs,
and problem-oriented policing, offering students
valuable information and insights related to these
important topics.

MANAGEMENT helps current police leaders, and wouldbe leaders, as they strive to effectively direct a group of
unique and powerful individuals: police officers.. The
work day of a police officer is replete with paradox,
making the job of leading police difficult and potentially
frustrating. This book provides real life examples
based on a theoretical framework. PARADOXES OF
LEADERSHIP IN POLICE MANAGEMENT discusses
the police officer’s experience including the multiple,
conflicting, and sometimes vague nature of police
functions and goals; the creation of mission statements;
organizational structures; teaching communication
skills to young officers; coaching and mentoring
police officers; and the complicated job of assessing
the job done by law enforcement. The book also deals
with the development of police ethics, comparative
accountability mechanisms, and alternative modes of
discipline, expanding these discussions into a threetiered view of police leadership (the roles of sergeant,
middle manager, and chief). The book concludes with
a practical, realistic list of ideas and ideals that can be
used for taking action. Each chapter concludes with
example scenarios, discussion questions, and additional
reading suggestions.
