Taking Stock of Homicide provides a critical look at homicide,
offering a comprehensive review of the major areas of homicide
research, including topics largely unexplored in the literature,
such as qualitative and historical accounts. Â Featuring
leading scholars, this volume is organized around key themes and
areas that reflect major contemporary trends and patterns in
criminological literature. Chapters consider fundamentals such as
data collection, sources, and histories; structural dynamics,
including methodologies and fieldwork plus factors involving race
and public health; the circumstances, types, and variations in
homicide, from intimate partner violence to gangs, drugs, and
firearms; as well as the prevention of and responses to homicide.
 An essential state-of-the-discipline examination, Taking
Stock of Homicide expands our knowledge while offering a toolkit
for how to conduct future research on this serious, violent crime.
