Reviews
'... an engaging and important contribution to an increasingly crowded Field in criminological and criminal justice (CCJ) research.' Lorana Bartels, Economic Record, Advance praise: 'Mears and Cochran have hit it out of the park again. This is more than a book on how to follow a research design. The authors thoroughly review the reasons why a research design matters and how to go about implementing one. Certain to have broad appeal, every criminologist will benefit from a careful reading of this book.' Scott H. Decker, Arizona State University

Synopsis
How to think about, conduct, and evaluate research is fundamental to the study and understanding of criminology and criminal justice. Students take methods, statistics, theory, and topic-specific classes, but they struggle to integrate what they learn and to see how it fits within the broader field of criminology and criminal justice research. This book directly tackles this problem by helping students to develop a 'researcher sensibility', and demonstrates how the 'nuts and bolts' of criminal justice research - including research design, theory, data, and analysis - are and can be combined. Relying on numerous real-world examples and illustrations, this book reveals how anyone can 'think like a researcher'. It reveals, too, why that ability is critical for being a savvy producer or consumer of criminological and criminal justice research., This book helps students to develop the sensibility of a researcher for thinking about, conducting, and evaluating research. Students need a one-stop source to integrate and apply what they learn in methods - as well as statistics, theory, and diverse topic-specific - classes. Fundamentals of Criminological and Criminal Justice Inquiry addresses this gap and does so through numerous real-world examples.
