Reviews

'Criminology is full of great debates, especially those surrounding the identification of brute facts of crime. Two of these...concern the relationship between age and crime and the relationship between past and future criminal activity...serious students of crime make it a point to carefully consider these issues...[this book] serves as an exemplar to all criminologists as to not only how to conduct sound research on key criminological questions, but also to do so in a way that is careful not to go beyond the reach of data.' Alex R. Piquero, University of Florida
