It covers the dominant theories and methodologies in the field and
equips you with all you need to succeed in your studies on the
subject. The book: Discusses the methodologies of life-course and
longitudinal research Explains and critiques the major theories of
life-course criminology Considers the issues of risk, prediction,
onset, persistence and desistance of criminal activity Draws on
research from studies in Europe, the UK, US and Australia,
including the Stockholm Life-Course Project Written by two leading
figures in the field, this is an authoritative text that will guide
you through your studies in life-course criminology, criminal
