Book Reviews of Criminal Justice: Mainstream and Crosscurrents

Book Review: Teacher's Edition A-OK
Summary: 4 Stars

My textbook came with a study guide, a test guide, and a Patriot Act booklet. I paid nearly nothing for it, and got so many extras! The only thing that makes the "Instructor Edition" different from the "Student Edition" is (in the margins) there are "lecture notes", "class activities", and "pop this question" surrounding the vocabulary. They are in light blue, and the vocab is orange/black, so it doesn't get confusing, but there is an attached ribbon bookmark that is helpful in keeping my place! Also, I took this class online, and basically all we did was read the book, so I'm glad I bought it "New."
