Description:
An internationally recognized scholar and author, James A. Inciardi presents a solid overview of the structure, processes, and problems of the criminal justice system in the United States. Inciardi brings his significant field and research experience to bear on the revision of this successful textbook; his research background, his privileged access to national data, and his story-telling style of writing guarantee a unique perspective to criminal justice. The ninth edition includes many new "Famous Criminals" sections, added coverage on media and criminal justice, and updated exhibits that showcase research, historical perspectives, current events, and the viewpoints of victims in the criminal justice system.

Great - It is a great book that gives the background of the criminal justice system and the changes that have occurred over the years. I am a criminal justice major in college and found the text to be informative and of a great use.

Criminal Justice - I have not finished reading it, but Criminal Justice is a very good narrative of our system in the United States. One thing that I was looking for but do not find in it is the criminal jusice system as it relates to those with mental illness... but, again, I have not finished reading it.
