A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Sharon Morley is Deputy Head of Department of Social and Political Science and senior lecturer in criminology at the University of Chester, UK. Sharon's research interests include young women's experiences of violence; gender, space and self-regulation and span the areas of violence in society and the victimisation of health and social care professionals and media representations of mentally disordered offenders. Sharon is a member of a number of sexual violence research networks. Jo Turner is senior lecturer at the University of Chester, UK. Jo's eclectic mix of research interests come under the broad umbrella of comparative criminology: comparisons with the past - the history of criminal justice; comparisons globally - state crimes in the international arena; and gender based comparisons - women's experiences of the criminal justice system.

Paul Taylor is Deputy Head of the Department of Social and Political Science at the University of Chester, teaching criminology and criminal justice.
