AB "This text is a unique approach to studying the concepts and controversies of the criminal justice system. Like many introductory texts, this book covers the major structures, agencies, and functions of the criminal justice system. In each chapter, you will learn about the different features and functions of our criminal justice system. You'll also learn about examples of high-profile cases and how the criminal justice system has responded to these crimes. The book also provides an in-depth look at the role of victims and policy in our criminal justice system, two topics that are often either absent or covered in a limited fashion in most texts. In addition, this book provides a unique look at some of the emerging issues in criminal justice in the twenty-first century. Finally, you'll learn about some of the cutting-edge issues and debates that face the criminal justice system today"--
