Reviews

'In this revolutionary new book, Gadd and Jefferson re-discover The Person behind the criminal label and pave the way for the development of a new way of doing and thinking about criminology. Those of us who became criminologists because we care about people and the complex lives they live will find this book a much needed re-affirmation of the possibilities of humanistic research in the discipline. Students (postgraduate and advanced undergrads) will find this a highly accessible, lively and evocative challenge to everything they thought they new about criminology.'
