In Their Own Words: Criminals on Crime

The only anthology of its kind, In Their Own Words: Criminals on Crime, Seventh Edition, provides students with a nuanced perspective on how–and why–offenders make decisions that lead them to commit crimes. Featuring firsthand accounts from gang members, burglars, shoplifters, pimps,
prostitutes, killers, robbers, addicts, rapists, drug smugglers, and white-collar offenders, the anthology helps students understand the offenders’ motives, perceptions, decision-making strategies, and rationalizations for crime.
