What better way to introduce todays students and tomorrows criminal justice - photo 1

What better way to introduce todays students and tomorrows criminal justice practitioners to the world of criminal justice administration than through a set of wellconstructed ethnographic reports detailing the lived experiences of the participants in the process? This is a welcome addition to the field.

Malcom M. Feeley,Professor of Jurisprudence and Sociology, University of California at Berkeley

Voices represents a robust effort to understand the lived experience of criminal justice system participants. The ethnographic selections are engaging, readable, and expose students to the broad array of players. The book's unique insider/outsider perspective provides probing and incisive accounts of key issues facing the field today.

Bruce Jacobs,Professor of Criminology, University of Texas, Dallas

The book brings various practitioners in the criminal justice system to life through ethnographic research. The collection puts a human face on the system and will draw students to the subject. It will also remind academics why they entered the field.

Criminology and Justice Studies
Series Editors: Britt Chester
Shaun L. Gabbidon

Criminology and Justice Studies seeks to publish brief and lengthier manuscripts that make both intellectual and stylistic innovations. Our goal is to publish works that model the best scholarship and thinking in the field today, but in a style that connects that scholarship to a wider audience, including advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and the general public. We envision these works filling the gap between academic monographs and encyclopedic textbooks by making innovative scholarship accessible to a large audience without the superficiality of many texts. Series topics will include the causes and consequences of crime, the globalization of crime, crime control policy (domestic and international), crime prevention, organizational approaches to the study of the criminal justice system, decision-making in the criminal justice system, terrorism and homeland security, and immigration and crime.
