Reviews

Brisman's work-like his title-is a complex and layered geometry of claims that in fact emerge out of his deeply reflective concerns with the very project he initiated. His work is to be read carefully, as it is in fact a very layered story of one scholar's own process of grappling with what at first attracted him as an innovation that was a step forward in terms of dismantling traditional criminal justice structures ... . (Alexandra Cox, Critical Criminology, Vol. 25 (1), March, 2017) Avi Brisman's Geometries of Crime: How Young People Perceive Crime challenges the theoretical analyses of criminologists who define crime using geometric models. ... One of the strengths of this book is Brisman's focus on the criminal justice system as perceived by RHCJC youth. ... Geometries of Crime provides critical insight for academics and criminal justice practitioners considering the relevance of youths' perceptions within the criminal justice system. (James Gacek, The Annual Review of Interdisciplinary Justice Research, Vol. 6, 2017)
