Summary
Courts: A Text/Reader provides the best of both worlds - authored text Sections with carefully selected accompanying Readings that illustrate the questions and controversies legal scholars and court researchers are investigating in the 21st century. The articles, from leading journals in criminology and criminal justice, reflect both classic studies of the criminal court system and state-of-the-art research, and often have a policy perspective that makes them more applied, less theoretical, and more interesting to both undergraduate and graduate students.
Features and Benefits:
- Edited readings introduce students to classic studies of the criminal court system and to cutting-edge research on decision making by court actors.
- Provides an introduction to each reading to give students an overview of the purpose, main points, and conclusions of each article, and evaluates their policy implications
- A ''How to Read a Research Article'' guide for students appears after the book′s Introduction in Section 1, prior to the first reading. The section guides students through each portion of the readings to illustrate key aspects of a research article. This provides a perfect introduction to understanding how research is organized and delivered in the journal literature
- 12 - 15 page mini-chapters precede the selection of readings and offer clear and concise explanations of key terms and concepts in each Section, coupled with boxes with special interest topics and review materials that enhance student comprehension.
