This handbook provides an accessible, high-quality, and
comprehensive introduction to and overview of the operation of the
American criminal justice system. It is divided into five sections
covering the purposes and functions of the system, its problems and
priorities, and its main institutions-police and policing,
prosecution and sentencing, and community and institutional
corrections. Highly regarded in the field, Michael Tonry brings
together a mix of established, senior scholars and up-and-coming
writers to provide authoritative and cutting-edge contributions on
hot-button topics, from the justice system's handling of
immigration and terrorism to racial profiling, parole, and
re-entry, as well as bread-and-butter issues like incapacitation,
jails, drugs, and police strategy. As countries vary substantially
in the detailed operation of some agencies and few scholars have
detailed knowledge of the operation of two or more countries'
systems, the focus is principally, though not exclusively, on the
American justice system.
