A crucial text for whetting the academic appetite of those studying criminology at university. The comprehensive engagement with key crime and deviance debates and issues make this a perfect springboard for launching into the complex, diverse and exciting realm of researching criminology.

Dr Ruth Penfold-Mounce

Essential reading for those new to the discipline and an invaluable reference point for those well versed in criminology and the sociology of crime and deviance.

Dr Mark Monaghan

The four authors of this concise volume provide an authoritative introduction to diverse key concepts about crime and its relationship to society. Each chapter starts with a definition (e.g., deviance, social control, normalization), providing readers with the vocabulary and conceptual framework for fully understanding chapter contents... a very good way to expose students and the public (and scholars from outside fields) to definitions, ideas, and theories of crime and society.

The book contains interesting concept's which enhance the students learning relating to reasons behind crime and criminal behaviour. It will be recommended to my level 5 students completing Community Engagement and Partnership working. This programme has an element of crime and crime reduction methods.

Mr Stuart Harry Woodcock

Very useful as a first reader for early years UG students who want to begin to explore some of the tensions within society. The challenges of 'resposes' are effectively introduced.

Mr Ashley Tiffen

This book provides a great summary of the pertinent topics for our policing degree programme. It covers criminological theory, some contemporary issues and also covers some research methods.
Very digestible for under-graduate students.
