Description

Crime Control in America: What Works? (4th Edition)

Crime Control in America: What Works? provides a balanced and comprehensive introduction to crime prevention, criminal justice policy, and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. Written by John Worrall, this text offers extensive coverage of what works across policing, prosecution, courts, and legislative methods of crime control. It extends its analysis beyond the formal justice system to examine the impact of crime control at the individual, family, school, and community levels, while also exploring environmental criminology and explanations for large-scale crime trends.

The 4th edition includes updated sections covering some of the most current and controversial topics in the field, such as the Ferguson effect, immigration enforcement, raising the age of majority, and the societal impact of mass shootings. It is designed for courses in crime prevention, introduction to criminal justice, and criminal justice policy, providing students with the tools to critically evaluate how society manages and reduces crime.
