Reviews

Sheds light on a community of young men who are under-researched but overexposed as suspicious, deviant, and dangerous...provides a unique insight into a group of young Pakistani-British Muslim men involved in offending and makes a significant contribution to academic, and potentially, public understanding of their experiences. Martina Feilzer, Bangor University


Sheds light on a community of young men who are under-researched but overexposed as suspicious, deviant, and dangerous...provides a unique insight into a group of young Pakistani-British Muslim men involved in offending and makes a significant contribution to academic, and potentially, public understanding of their experiences. Martina Feilzer, Bangor University A book of great importance to the field of criminology. It explores the rapidly emerging academic, political and media construction of a crime `problem' amongst young Pakistani men in a dynamic, innovative and `real' way. A must read for anyone seeking to understand the lived experiences of this much-neglected social group. Stephen Case, Loughborough University A fascinating read, providing a close up, rare insight, into a group of people few are able to gain access and fully understand. Colin Webster, Leeds Beckett University
