Reviews

"Simon Pemberton's groundbreaking volume provides a major step forward in understanding the causation and alleviation of widespread harm." Danny Dorling, University of Oxford "In a sense, criminology has been 'waiting' for this original and highly topical book. It is of theoretical, conceptual, methodological and empirical significance, making novel contributions in each respect." Steve Tombs, The Open University
