Imagining Criminology cover

First published in 1999. This concludes work on a series Current Issues in Criminal Justice. Criminology. The book represents another milestone in a criminologist’s journey to uncover some “truths” about the discipline and to reflectcritically on how that field has evolved.

What is perhaps most exciting about this work is that it is critical, in the true sense of critical, a term that has been abused and overused.
