Criminal Justice Today: An Introductory Text for the 21st Century

this book was amazing for what i used it for. it gives a broad general overview of the entire criminal justice system. it has tons of pictures and charts. which helps with the learning of the material covered inside. i used this book in college for in introductory course to the Criminal Justice program and I could not think of a better book than this one for that type of course. whether you are taking that program or just want to understand the basics of the criminal justice system i would recommend this book to you

The book was received quickly and in excellent condition! It was expensive, but still less than I would have paid if purchased through the college bookstore.

The book arrived in ok condition, not damaged but I don't expect pristine condition when buying used. The problem is the seller 'overstockbook'. They sent me the instructor's edition instead of the student one, but I didn't think to double check the isbn number as there was nothing stating this on the book cover (the number on the back had a sticker from that seller over it anyway). There should have been a label on the front of the book but somehow there wasn't one there (it had been removed). So when I tried to start a trade in through amazon it was rejected because the isbn number did not match what I purchased. Since this was just past the return policy date I am unable to get it exchanged or anything. The seller never responded to me directly, even after sending them multiple messages explaining the issue. Amazon also wouldn't help is any way shape or form. So buyer beware, double check the isbn number on your book, especially if you intend to resell it or trade it in.

I needed this text for a class I'm taking in college, but outside of class it is still a great book. It is very clear and easy to understand, and each chapter seems to flow into the next. It's helping me a lot in my studies, and I hope it'll help others, too!

A fantastic overall scope about all aspects of criminal justice. While I rented this book (at a fantastic price!) I'm tempted to buy it full out, because it is that useful and that good a read.

So much information. I'd say that this book is my go-to for initial criminal justice inquiries (in an academic context). It's an exhaustive source for nearly anything imaginable in criminal justice. It's just a great resource.

I truly enjoyed reading this book. I have learned so much from my reading. I would definitely recommend this book to others. It is worth the price.

"Criminal Justice Today" is a well written book. It is easy to read and understand. My biggest complaint is that much of the 'additions' such as online links, etc. are about following the author's twitter feed. This is not in anyway beneficial to those who do not have a twitter account and I felt that I was short changed in getting updates, etc.

international editionなので値段にひかれて買いました。しかし、少し字が小さく読むのに苦労しています。内容は素晴らしいものです。
