Making Sense of Criminal Justice by Rick Ruddell

Making Sense of Criminal Justice by Rick Ruddell

Rather than providing students with "the answers," Making Sense of Criminal Justice: Policies and Practices, Third Edition, challenges them to think critically about how the criminal justice system deals with challenging situations--like the use of force by the police--and offers a framework for lively classroom discussions and debates.

"Making Sense of Criminal Justice distinguishes itself by expanding its focus on evidence-based practicesThe use of the due process and crime control models gives students a framework to organize their way of considering policy issues. I would adopt this text because of the concise yet thorough manner in which the authors approach each policy topic."--Richard Hough, University of West Florida "A comprehensive review of relevant current public policy, Making Sense of Criminal Justice goes into sufficient depth yet is succinct enough to relate important information in a clear, concise manner. The style is easy to read and understand and does not get too technical for students. The text covers relevant areas including police use of force and sentencing policies like three-strikes legislation, gun control, death-penalty legislation, juvenile crime, and much more."--Rebecca Loftus, Arizona State University "This text focuses on research while also providing a historical and social/cultural overview of many different policies."--Sheryl Van Horne, Eastern University
