"The book is beautifully organized, well written, and very interesting. It has a trio of virtues: the author does an excellent job of defining and showing the advantages of integrative approaches. He also refuses to allow readers to separate crime from criminal justice. This strikes me as distinctive and rather original. And I very much like the way he helps us to see how US criminology exists in relation to a a global approach." Lynn Chancer, Hunter College, CUNY "Barak provides the first integrated analysis of crime, criminal justice, and criminology through a global lens, revealing the importance of a global perspective for the study of crime and justice in the 21st century. While moving seamlessly from the micro bio-pyschological, interactive-social process to macro cultural-structural forces that shape crime and our responses to it, the author presents the reader with a feast of the latest criminological ideas in this sumptuous tome." Stuart Henry, California State University at San Diego "This text is different from what else is out there and in a very positive way. I like the way the author take on the study of criminology in a novel way, integrating more mainstream theories with perspectives that have received less attention bu that are just as important in explaining crime and criminal justice responses. I am also very impressedwith the way n which Barak incorporates the new thinking aobut globalization and crime (providing interesting historical context) and adding a critique of the risk perspectives. Overal, this book will be an important text for courses where instructors want to explore different ideas and approaches about crime. It is provocative in a positive way."
