Our primary objective is to provide a trustworthy source for presenting a balanced perspective in the field of criminology without circumventing the discussion on some critical issues like gender subordination, white-collar crime, sexual harassment, rising rates of recidivism, rising crime against men, the plight of under trials, and other socially harmful behaviors that are frequently overlooked. The book attempts to commission chapters meant to be definitive and give an in-depth analysis by justifying the subject.
