Sentencing and Criminal Justice has been extensively rewritten to reflect recent legislation, guidelines and judicial decisions.

Written with clarity of expression coupled with critical analysis, this textbook offers an unrivalled combination of expertise, accessibility and coverage. This is the essential text for anyone interested in criminal justice.
