More Description
Jim Fagin brings expansive law enforcement and teaching experience and expertise to this highly applied new text, which introduces students to the real world of criminal justice.
Fagin uses clear and simple examples drawn from decades of experience to bring criminal justice alive for students, and he places the criminal justice system in the broader context of American government. Fagin's diverse background lends itself beautifully to introductory text authorship! He is a recognized educator in the administration of justice; an expert in areas of contemporary concern, such as transnational terrorism, computer crime, and computer technologies in criminal justice; and has hands-on experience in law enforcement.
This new text has been described by reviewers as "intriguing, realistic, stimulating, and relevant." One reviewer congratulates Fagin on "a fine job and an approach that stands apart from the other introductory level books." Another says, "I am really impressed by the real-life approach of this text in terms of careers, ethics, and media features."
