Covers a core component of undergraduate criminology courses which
have exploded in number in the past few years.
Most competing volumes are simplistic, whereas this book is more
sophisticated and comprehensive.
Covers classic debates such as media effects, production and
panic-mongering, as well as cutting-edge studies of the
representation of crime.
Written clearly, but does not shy away from dealing with some complex issues.
