This book is an innovative pedagogical tool that will definitely enhance students' knowledge of the ways in which gender shapes criminal justice responses to crime and how the justice system shapes people's understandings of gender. There is no other book like it and the authors should be commended for writing this much-needed text. -- Walter DeKeseredy, Anna Deane Carlson Endowed Chair of Social Sciences, West Virginia University Those looking for a more inclusive and intersectional analysis of the criminal legal system will be impressed by this comprehensive yet accessible text. Students will appreciate the engaging and memorable use of case studies to frame each chapter's content. Although perfect for a gender and crime course, this text would also work well for those wanting to center race and gender in introductory courses. -- Allison J. Foley, Augusta University
