While packed with lots of information, it wasn't organized very well, I found it hard to find things that I was specifically looking for. The textbook Criminology was much better.

A truly great guide
Puts criminal justice and related issues in plain view for everybody to see. Makes a great handbook for foreign law professionals and anybody interested in this otherwise abstruse subject. Extremely useful for translators who do not usually work in a common law environment.
