Biosocial criminologists seek to explain crime (and related
anti-social behaviour) by exploring both biological and
environmental factors. Combining perspectives from mainstream
Criminology and Sociology, with contributions from those working in
disciplines such as Genetics, Neuropsychology, and Evolutionary
Psychology, Biosocial Criminology is now a well-established-if
heterogeneous and contentious-field of study. As Biosocial
Criminology continues to develop, this new title from Routledge,
edited by two distinguished scholars, meets the need for an
authoritative, one-stop reference work to make sense of the wide
range of approaches, theories, and concepts that have contributed
to its growth. In four volumes, the collection assembles the best
and most influential empirical, theoretical, and political
contributions made by biosocial criminologists from around the
world. The gathered works cover not only the history of Biosocial
Criminology and cutting-edge theories, but also explore a variety
of research methods used by leading scholars and the rich data
generated by their rigorous empirical work. With a full index,
together with a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the
editors, which places the collected material in its historical and
intellectual context, Biosocial Criminology is an essential work of
reference. The collection will be particularly useful as a database
allowing scattered and often fugitive material to be easily
located. It will also be welcomed as a crucial tool permitting
rapid access to less familiar-and sometimes overlooked-texts. For
researchers, students, and policy-makers, it is an essential
one-stop research and pedagogic resource.
