Author Description

What do conventional crime, white-collar crime, and organized crime have in common? Quite simply, the sociological basis and social process of the crime. That's why, in Criminology, John Conklin has organized his study of crime around conceptual topics such as learning to commit crime and the organization of criminal behavior, rather than around types of crime. This approach will help you understand the role that all types of crime play in our society—and the role our society plays in crime.
