With its recurring Ned Kelly-themed cover, Crime and Justice: A guide to Criminology has earned its reputation as the leading Australian textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students embarking on a journey of discovery into all things criminological. The contributors are prominent academics engaged in research-informed teaching all over Australia; and so, they have an appreciation for knowing how to inspire student readers. As prominent researchers in their field they are at the forefront of national and international criminological debates.

Fully revised and updated, this sixth edition offers an exhaustive guide to criminal justice and criminology that can be readily adapted to any University course. It covers a wide array of topics including: different forms of crime - from hyper-visible street-level offences to less visible 'corporate' crimes perpetrated in lofty office towers; who commits crimes (and why); who are the victims of crime; and how society seeks to combat and reduce crime.

This sixth edition includes an invaluable 'Study Skills chapter' (which many other textbooks neglect to cover) that features improved graphic diagrams (in a dyslexic-friendly font!) to assist students in comprehending the grade-enhancing wisdom contained within. And in an exciting first for Australian criminology; this book includes a long overdue chapter devoted to popular culture entitled 'Popular Representations of Crime and Justice'. This chapter captures the paradoxical allure of crime in the era of Netflix (with references to classic television shows and movies).

Crime and Justice: A guide to Criminology 6th Edition is essential reading for students of criminal justice, criminology, penology, policing, sociology, justice and society studies, and legal studies. Practitioners and NGOs engaged in criminal justice issues would also be well-served by this text.
