Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Larry J. Siegel was born in the Bronx, New York. While living on Jerome Avenue and attending City College (CCNY) in the 1960s, he was swept up in the social and political currents of the time. He became intrigued with the influence contemporary culture had on individual behavior: Did people shape society, or did society shape people? He applied his interest in social forces and human behavior to the study of crime and justice. Graduating from CCNY in 1968 with a degree in sociology, he was admitted to the newly opened program in criminal justice at the University of New York at Albany. After completing his graduate work, Dr. Siegel began his teaching career at Northeastern University and has also held teaching positions at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, Saint Anselm College in New Hampshire, and in the School of Criminology and Justice Studies at the University of Massachusetts at Lowell (UML); he is now a Professor Emeritus. Dr. Siegel has written extensively in the area of crime and justice, including books on juvenile law, juvenile delinquency, criminology, corrections, courts, criminal justice, police, private security, and criminal procedure. He is a court-certified expert on police conduct and has testified in numerous legal cases.

5.0 out of 5 stars 100% Satisfied

I bought this for an online college course. It was shipped really fast. I got it just in time for classes. It was in the exact condition that the seller described and the price was really good compared to all the other prices that I checked. I would love to do business with them again, seeing that I always need books for school, and I would recommend them to anyone! Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT PRICE
Reviewed in the United States on 17 July 2013

Good book. The only complaint I have is that they focus way too much on who wrote the theories when the real meat of it should be the actual theory and application. This book turns criminology into history. It's good to touch on the history but not to make it the main focus.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad
Reviewed in the United States on 18 August 2007

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.
