Introduction to Criminology: Why Do They Do It? offers a contemporary and integrated discussion of key criminological theories to help students understand crime in the 21st century. Focusing on the fundamental question of why offenders commit crimes, authors Pamela J. Schram, Joseph A. Schwartz, and Stephen G. Tibbetts apply established theories to real-life examples to explain the complexities of criminal behavior. Coverage of violent and property crimes is woven throughout theory chapters, ensuring that students can clearly see the practical application of theoretical frameworks to actual criminal acts.

The Fourth Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the most significant recent shifts in society and law enforcement. New content addresses major social movements such as the George Floyd protests and analyzes the profound changes in crime trends and behavior resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. This edition also features the latest crime statistics, updated case studies, and expanded discussion on high-profile contemporary topics, including mass shooting events and the legal implications surrounding the legalization of marijuana.
