The clarity of approach makes it an ideal text for students wishing to gain a firm grasp of the fundamental issues, together with an appreciation of some of the complexities surrounding the study of criminology." "Students will find the insightful chapter on terrorism and state violence to be of particular interest and relevance in light of recent global events. Established criminological theories are applied to terrorism and state violence, and the author addresses issues such as political responses to terrorism and the reasons why people become terrorists."--BOOK JACKET
