    Beskrivning

    Most people engage in crime at some point in their lives, but why does almost everybody stop soon after? And, why do a small number of offenders persist in crime? These two questions constitute the core of the field often known as life-course criminology.

    This book provides a comprehensive introduction to life-course criminology. It covers the dominant theories and methodologies in the field and equips you with all you need to succeed in your studies on the subject.  The book:

    • Discusses the methodologies of life-course and longitudinal research
    • Explains and critiques the major theories of life-course criminology
    • Considers the issues of risk, prediction, onset, persistence and desistance of criminal activity
    • Draws on research from studies in Europe, the UK, US and Australia, including the Stockholm Life-Course Project

    Written by two leading figures in the field, this is an authoritative text that will guide you through your studies in life-course criminology, criminal career research, and developmental criminology.

    Recensioner i media

    This is an excellent introduction to a topic of central importance for criminologists.  It has the merit of being very clearly written, and the authors cover a wide range of materials – theories and data; European and American research; quantitative and qualitative studies.  Throughout, they provide helpful examples from their work on the Stockholm Life Course Project.  Highly recommended.
