Reviews
"Vold's Theoretical Criminology is the classic text on criminological theory, providing an exceptional overview of the development of crime theories and a comprehensive examination of every major theory, including the many theories developed in recent years. This is an excellent text for any course on criminological theory."--Robert Agnew, Emory University "This text takes a comprehensive and up-to-date approach to both summarizing and analyzing the state of theoretical paradigms in criminology. In doing so, it places each paradigm in history, providing both the context for the theories' development and the implications of those theories on policy and on individuals. It also effectively incorporates issues of race, class, and gender into the theoretical discussions."--Dina Perrone, California State University at Long Beach "When teaching criminology, I seek to provide sophisticated accounts of a wide range of theoretical perspectives coupled with a selection of the best empirical research on the key issues important to the field. Over the years, I continue to find that Vold's Theoretical Criminology is the book that best fits my teaching goals. It is an excellent teaching tool and its breadth and depth of coverage is unparalleled."--John H.
