An introduction to criminal justice through the lens of freedom and security
Criminal Justice Today guides students to a satisfying balance between freedom and security. Focusing on the crime picture in the US, the authors present comprehensive coverage of the three traditional elements of the criminal justice system: police, courts and corrections. Built around the theme of tension between individual rights and public order, the text challenges students to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the American justice system.
The 16th Edition reflects current issues and offers an expanded selection of Freedom or Safety boxes.
