In the fourth edition of Essential Criminology, authors Mark M. Lanier, Stuart Henry, and Desire .M. Anastasia build upon this best-selling critical review of criminology, which has become essential reading for students of criminology in the 21st century.Designed as an alternative to overly comprehensive, lengthy, and expensive introductory texts, Essential Criminology is, as its title implies, a concise overview of the field. The book guides students through the various definitions of crime and the different ways crime is measured. It then covers the major theories of crime, from individual-level, classical, and rational choice to biological, psychological, social learning, social control, and interactionist perspectives. In this latest edition, the authors explore the kind of criminology that is needed for the globally interdependent twenty-first century. With cutting-edge updates, illustrative real-world examples, and new study tools for students, this text is a necessity for both undergraduate and graduate courses in criminology.

This significantly expanded edition of Essential Criminology covers the broadest range of criminological theories—the essential criminological theories—from longstanding ones such as classical theory and strain theory to recently introduced ones such as ultra-realism and green cultural criminology. Whether all are “essential” depends on one’s theoretical stance. The value of this text is its carefully designed comparative analysis, which helps readers consider their relative contribution to the field. Originally designed as an alternative to lengthy and expensive introductory texts, Essential Criminology provides a concise, yet comprehensive overview of the field. The book offers a clear, structured, student-friendly, critical analytical examination of the nature of crime, theories of crime causation, and their criminal justice policy implications. Causal theories covered range from micro-level classical and rational choice to biological psychological, social learning, social control, and interactionist perspectives, to macro-level social ecology, anomie/strain, conflict, Marxist, feminist, and postmodernist theories. Over its 26-year history the book has added new theoretical perspectives as these have gained prominence. New to this edition are chapters on critical and ultra-realism, and critical green criminology and discussions of zemiology, critical race theory, and quantum holographic criminology. The authors have also expanded some theoretical frameworks that had previously been underdeveloped such as opportunity theory, subcultural theory, and social constructionism.Essential Criminology contextualizes criminology in the globally interdependent 21st century, addressing the crimes of terrorism, global pandemics, and climate change. With its cutting-edge updates, illustrative real-world examples, and student-friendly study tools, including analytically comparable summary charts exposing each theory's ontological assumptions, this text was designed primarily for undergraduate criminology courses, but has also been adopted by community colleges and graduate programs in criminology, sociology, and political science.

"The fifteen case studies in this book place the reader in a wide variety of real public health leadership situations. . . . Each situation is presented to the student with the swirl of communications, conflicts, and conundrums that I have found accompany any difficult public health leadership judgment. The case writers have done a very good job of placing the student in public health decisional situations that, to me, feel like the reality of my own professional life." —William L. Roper, MD, MPH, Dean, School of Public Health The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from the Foreword The six chapters and fifteen cases contained in this book challenge students to ask the appropriate questions and stimulate their thinking about public health leadership and management. The chapters provide the student with: a framework and tools for case analysis, and the important environmental context of the health care system in general and public health systems specifically. The 15 public health case studies: are all based on actual situations faced by real public health leaders encompass all of the core disciplines in public health are geographically diverse, and include international content, and provide substantial detail that immerses the student in meaningful decisional simulations. The situations presented by each case are vivid and provide not only a basis for practicing professional public health judgments but also provide a lasting impression that aids in retention of the lessons learned.
