Revue de presse

'there can be no dispute that greater knowledge of other systems is tremendously valuable, and it is to this growing body of knowledge that "Criminal Justice in Europe" makes an important contribution.'

This is an important contribution to the literature...The comparative approach has made the authors look at familiar systems with a fresh eye, with the result that new light is cast on existing research.'

'this is a useful book which will be of interest to lawyers and criminologists alike...the book will serve as a standard work on the topic and, one may hope, an impetus to other comparative studies.' (Times Higher Education Supplement)

'the volume is a significant addition to the rapidly growing body of comparative work on criminal justice policy, processes and practice... a most useful and rigorous addition to comparative criminology and criminal justice studies.'
