Criminal Justice and Moral Issuesby Robert F. Meier , Gilbert GeisISBN 0195330609 (0-19-533060-9)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Criminal Justice and Moral Issues'Book summary:This text addresses the following two questions: "What kinds of problems can the law solve?" and "What kinds of problems does the law create?"
Using these questions as starting points, Meier and Geis evenhandedly explore the role and function of law relating to six major issues that often divide Americans today: prostitution, drug use, homosexuality, abortion, pornography, and gambling. Statutes and public opinion have shifted dramatically over recent decades in regard to these behaviors. The book details these developments and offers explanations of why they have occurred.
Some people view all or some of these behaviors as acts that ought to be permitted, as part of individual freedom. Others find one, some, or all of them to be genuine threats to the country's social and moral fiber and believe that they ought to be criminalized. Still others maintain that action ought to be taken to limit some of the behaviors, but that using the criminal justice system is not the best way to proceed.
Meier and Geis' provocative book offers sophisticated, in-depth discussions of these issues, then reviews the conflicting opinions about the proper role of criminal law in dealing with them. It is written in straightforward, jargon-free language, providing an ideal background for exploring the facts and views regarding what are often contentious concerns.
Criminal Justice and Moral Issues increases student understanding through the abundant use of relevant illustrations, examples, and case studies. [via]More editions of Criminal Justice and Moral Issues:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Sociology of Deviant Behavior With Infotrac'Book summary:The leading book in the field, Sociology of Deviant Behavior, Tenth Edition, continues its tradition of a balanced theoretical perspective while incorporating the most current research and empirical data available. For the course in social deviance, the Tenth Edition combines a thorough updating of research with its learning-theory based coverage of crime, alcoholism, drugs, suicide, mental disorders, and other behaviors that depart from group standards. More attention is paid to the discussion of gay movements, the social aspects of mental disorders, and suicide in the United States and other countries, providing cross-national comparison. Features: * Presents a sociological perspective without neglecting empirical evidence of the biological perspective or new emergent theories, such as left realism. * Coverage of physical disabilities and mental illness illustrates the fact that deviance is not always voluntary behavior. * Discussions relate forms of deviance to current issues of social control. * Boxed inserts, chapter summaries, and recommended reading lists provide resources and references for further study of important topics. New to this edition: * A new chapter (Chapter 2) on social control provides complete coverage of this increasingly important topic in the study of deviance. * Material on computer sexuality and the Internet incorporates timely information on a new medium for communication and pornography. * Expanded coverage on eating disorders, a form of deviance often encountered in college age students. * Major sociological theories are also presented in brief summaries, allowing students additional review opportunities. * More attention is devoted to the social aspects of mental disorders providing a better opportunity to apply the sociological theories presented.
