This brief version of Bachman and Schutt's successful textbook (The Practice of Research in Criminology and Criminal Justice) simplifies complex concepts with real-world research examples found in everyday experiences in the criminology and criminal justice professions. KEY FEATURES Increased focus on international research introduces students to the expanded use of research conducted in countries around the world as well as global issues involving race, ethnicity, gender, and culture.
