Description
Key Readings in Criminology provides a comprehensive single-volume collection of readings in criminology. It provides students with convenient access to a broad range of excerpts (over 150 readings) from original criminological texts and key articles, and is designed to be used either as a stand-alone text or in conjunction with the same author's textbook, Criminology . This volume can be used in a number of ways in support of the study of criminology: as a source of both ‘key’ and supplementary reading for lectures; as the basis for organized reading in advance of seminars and tutorials; as the basis for classroom discussion and analysis; as a broad source of reading for exam revision; in addition it provides students with access to a broad range of materials with which to follow up their reading of their main textbook; it includes readings that include more recent summaries of particularly important criminological issues, as well as excerpts from criminological classics; it also introduces students not only to criminological argument and debate, but also encourages them to read primary as well as secondary or summary sources.

Must have for crim degree students
Love this book, contains lots of excerpts from articles which is great for a 1st year crim student as lots to reference and easier to read than Newburns other book. (Got it from a 3rd party seller for a highly reduced price, but tbh it's worth the full price if none are available).

Brilliant!
Very in depth book. Tim Newburns books always contain fascinating content and always manage to give me information on the subject that i am studying at the time to help me with my assignments. Worth Buying - especially if you're a criminology student!

Must have for criminology students!
As a criminology student Newburn is a MUST - especially as a starting point. This book provides - as suggested in the title - key readings from various influential and significant academics. The layout is clear and precise. Very helpful. I’ve just finished my second year as a criminology student and I know I’ll still refer to this book in my next, and final, year. Would recommend to any criminology student.
