"This set also offers an intriguing look at the effect of race and
crime in related areas, e.g., post-Hurricane Katrina criminal
behavior, correctional facilities, and disaster management."
*K. Evans*
"....The organization of the reader’s guide—especially the
groupings of landmark cases, race riots, and criminology
theories—is impressive. Bottom Line Other related titles lack the
breadth, detail, and accessibility of this work.... Recommended for
all libraries; essential for comprehensive social studies
collections."—Daniel Sifton, Cariboo Regional Dist. Lib., Williams
