 Criminology book for my daughter February 17, 2010
Michelle Lay
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the book for my daughter (Law Enforcement Student @ Vincennes University).
She had a hard time finding an affordable copy any where local to her. So I went on line.
The book was in great condition. Used but not bad. It took a while for it to ship to her. Wish it was there sooner. But all in all good experience. Will purchase from Amazon.com again in the future.
Thanks,
Michelle Lay (Happy college mom)

Fairly good condition, scratches on the CD but usable. It took a little too long to ship.
 Condition of used text book was disappointing June 15, 2010

The condition of this used text book was disappointing. Many of the pages were bent at the bottom edges. The price was too high for the physical condition.
 Overtly feminist liberal views do not belong in a textbook June 9, 2008

3 out of 10 found this review helpful
I was hoping this book would provide amazing facts about crime. What I received instead was allot of feminist liberal views. I'm a woman and I was shocked at some of the overtly feminist views expressed. This book does NOT give an unbiased account of crime. This is the liberal view of crime. Textbooks should not express opinions. If a textbook is written correctly - I should have no idea what the political views of the writer is. This is one of the worst books I've ever had to read for school.
