Description
An anthology of ethnographic or field accounts of crime and criminals, selected to give students unique perspectives on gang members, burglars, addicts, rapists, and white-collar offenders. These criminals discuss their motives, perceptions, decision-making strategies, and rationalizations for crime. This second edition contains seven new studies, adding more accounts of crimes committed by women, youthful car thieves, crack sales, and research that analyzes crime as work. Lacks a subject index. Cromwell is affiliated with Wichita State University. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
