Did you know that the best text for your criminology class is also very affordably priced? CRIMINOLOGY: THE CORE, Third Edition is the field's top-selling concise paperback-and the right text to help you excel in the criminology course. Author Larry Siegel guides you through the fast-paced field of criminology, its most current research, and the fascinating examples that help you understand criminological theory. In new "Profiles in Crime" features, you'll study the crimes of real-life men and women and how they illustrate specific criminology theories discussed in this book. Along the way you'll find the newest information, court cases, and topics, including hundreds of new references to keep you at the cutting-edge of the field. The author also includes "Thinking Like a Criminologist" role-plays, "Checkpoints" (throughout each chapter to help you review as you read), "Connections" boxes (that help you connect concepts among chapters to see the big picture), "Critical Thinking" questions, and other resources in every chapter to help you retain what you learn and do your best on exams.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Glad I finally got it
Comment: I am happy with the purchase of the book. I needed it for a class and ordered it over a week in advance of the class starting date. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the book came two weeks late!!! I already had a class that this happened last semester and it makes me wonder if I should be ordering textbooks on Amazon if I have one class every semester that I have to do catchup work on. The book was in the condition that was described when I ordered it and on that I am pleased. I just wish it would have gotten here on time. I will consider this the next time I order from Amazon.

Summary: Not Bad
Comment: Book was easy to read. It was nice that the author gave us really big margins so we can write notes in there if we needed to. Would recommend for other classes if there is not another book that is better. I would prefer to look for another book before using this one, but it was not too bad to use.
