Summary
Organized around a "planned change" approach, this book provides a critical assessment of how well the American criminal justice system achieves its goals. Unlike most other criminal justice bookswhich cover the traditional topics from the perspective of how "things are supposed to be," this book compares these ideals with the realities of criminal justice today and provides a critical interpretation of the role of race, ethnicity, and gender in criminal justice. For law clerks and officers and criminal justice professionals.
