Synopsis
The criminology literature has left little room for research and theory on how female offenders are perceived and handled in the criminal justice system. This book redresses the balance by providing critical insight into this issue. Meda Chesney-Lind explores gender and cultural factors in womens lives that often precede a move towards criminal behaviour, and addresses the question of whether female offenders are more violent today than in the past. The author also takes a revealing look at how public discomfort with the idea of women as criminals has had significant impact on the treatment received by this offender population., The criminology literature has left little room for research and theory on how female offenders are perceived and handled in the criminal justice system.This book redresses the balance by providing critical insight into this issue.

- 7***3 (86)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA very trustworthy and communicative seller! The price of the books he sold me was so incredible, that I couldn't believe it until I received them. Books arrived in amazing condition (better than the photos conveyed) and the price and speed of shipping was the best I think I've had on eBay -- books arrived over 20 days before they were supposed to! Will buy from this seller again if I see an item I would like.
