Criminal Justice by Julian V. Roberts Book PDF Summary

The criminal justice system is wide ranging: it covers crimes, policing, the sentencing of offenders, and prisons. This title draws upon the latest research and current practices from around the world.

Considering the role of the victim, as well as public knowledge and attitudes towards criminal justice, it assesses the way in which the system functions.
