Reviews

'Not only are the authors well-established experts on their topics of the first rank internationally, but the selections have been carefully assembled to constitute a comprehensive theoretical, empirical and policy analysis of the sources and problems of criminal justice legitimacy. The book will be a major reference point for future discussion.' Robert Reiner, Emeritus Professor of Criminology, London Schools of Economics 'The authors of the individual papers contributed to this collection are all prominent authorities in their respective fields and the scope of the book is both comprehensive and interesting in that it brings together diverse academic disciplines. I can imagine that this will become an authoritative reference for many years to come.' P.A.J. Waddington, Professor of Social Policy, University of Wolverhampton
