Customer Rating: Summary: Should have specified book was torn-not used Comment: The book was classified as used but did not specifically say on the condition of the book being torn. The book was in really bad condition. Customer Rating: Summary: Book Comment: I used this book for my crimnal justice ethics course and I did not find it to be very useful. The only purpose this book served was for my quizes I took through the course, otherwise the rest of the material was from my professor. Even my professor didn't care for this book very much either.
This text is designed to introduce students to ethical decision-making in the criminal justice system. Its greatest strengths are its balanced coverage of 1) all three segments of the CJ system-police, courts, and corrections-and 2) both philosophical principles/theories and hands-on criminal justice issues and applications.
