Synopsis :
Prentice Hall’s Masters Series in Criminology brings the work of true masters to life for a new audience of readers, presenting brief and accessible introductions to crime and criminology topics from some of the leading scholars in criminology today. All authors in the series are true academic pioneers, and each book in the series pulls from the authors’ decades of research and writing in their fields. The first and only series of its kind, Prentice Hall’s Masters Series in Criminology introduces readers to the scholars and issues that are at the core of modern criminology.
Revue de presse:
This book is classic Klein: engaging, thoughtful, and at times irreverent. If you are interested in gaining an appreciation for the current state of youth gang research and policy, I recommend this user-friendly monograph. Mac (as Klein is known) shares forty-plus years of scholarly research in a very readable format. For readers who have not had the pleasure of meeting Mac in person, this book will give you some insight into his humor along with his wisdom. (Finn-Aage Esbensen, University of Missouri-St. Louis)
This book reveals the remarkable career in gang research of Mac Klein. Told in his typically engaging style, he takes the reader on his journey through the twists and turns of charting what we know (and don't know)
Klein is the leading gang scholar (the gang guru. Chasing After Street Gangs summarizes his wealth of gang knowledge and is very clear on where we need to focus our energies in tackling the gang problem.)
