A Re-Introduction To Criminal Justice aims to take a new approach to the way students are introduced to the study of crime and justice. Instead of providing students with straightforward examinations and solutions as most introductory texts do, A Re-Introduction To Criminal Justice encourages students to partake in self-awareness, critical thinking, and unique problem solving.
