This first Canadian edition of Crime and Criminology: An Introduction combines Canadian empirical research, policy, and legal issues to create a thoroughly Canadian text. Ideal for university and college students enrolled in introductory criminological theory courses, the book offers a solid foundation to criminology which unites traditional theories of crime with contemporary approaches and perspectives. By relating theory to everyday Canadian examples and events, students gain a solid grounding in the major theoretical considerations of the nature and causes of criminal behaviour. New discussion on ecology and environmental theories are unique to this edition. Updated references reflect recent research in emerging fields of criminology.
