Descrizione Introduction to Criminology: Why Do They Do It?
Introduction to Criminology: Why Do They Do It? offers a contemporary and integrated discussion of key criminological theories to help learners understand crime in the 21st century. Focusing on why offenders commit crimes, authors Pamela J. Schram, Joseph A. Schwartz, and Stephen G. Tibbetts apply established theories to real-life examples to explain criminal behavior.
