Contemporary Criminal Law: Concepts, Cases, and Controversies
From: $53.50
"It is important to understand the development of law and the law generally from statutes rather than merely relying on case review and interpretation. Lippman provides a more academic and thorough approach, and SAGE is developing instructor guides and power point presentations for the textbook, which should prove very helpful. In sum, I whole-heartedly endorse Lippman’s book for Criminal Law, and I look forward to using it in my own classes."?—Glenn Coffey, University of North FloridaCriminal Law: Concepts, Cases and Controversies is an introductory text that features "the new criminal law," expanding on traditional criminal law cases and concepts with contemporary topics and issues. Author Matthew Lippman uses an engaging case study approach to enhance student learning and offer an interactive educational environment. Key Features:??
- Employs a unique case study approach: Edited cases and accompanying exploratory essays present the fundamentals of criminal law. These engaging cases are designed to develop skills in case analysis and critical and logical thinking.
- Emphasizes contemporary cases and issues: While classic cases fundamental to the study of criminal law are presented, contemporary cases and issues reflecting our increasingly diverse and urbanized society are central to the book. Cases on carjacking, computer crime, drugs, gangs, stalking, terrorism, white collar crime, cultural diversity, and animal rights are included. Attention is also devoted to gender, race, domestic violence, and hate crimes.
- Incorporates valuable learning tools: In addition to the illustrative cases and essays, this book contains a variety of special features including side-bars, thematic boxes inserts, discussion questions, legal equations, case comments, and much more to facilitate student comprehension. "You Decide" exercises enable students to apply what they have learned from the cases and help to involve them with the text material.
