Reviews

“Fake Meds Online preceded issues such as Brexit, its critical analysis of the role of free trade, free movement and special economic zones raises questions for criminologists on where they stand on such issues, both politically and criminologically. Ultimately, this is a book that deserves a wide readership. As time passes, it will come to be recognized as a seminal work in both virtual ethnography and the global study of transnational criminal markets.” (Thomas Raymen, Trends in Organized Crime, Vol. 21, 2018)​
