This is quite an interesting book and updated for the 10th edition. It is almost solely based on US statistics but does have some reference to Canadian crime stats. All in all, I enjoyed this interesting look into criminal behavior!

Great book. I used a prior edition for another class and had to buy this updated version. Not much has changed, it's just a great book based in science and statistics, not crammed with baseless filler theories. Text is loaded with data. I love it.

Very helpful for my course. I rented it and am sad that I have to return it, because I think it would be good for long term use.
