Book Reviews of Visions for Change: Crime and Justice in the Twenty-First Century (5th Edition)

Book Review: I agree with the above review
Summary: 1 Stars

The authors of this book are truely using this "text" as a platform to preach their ideals. The authors about how unfair the U.S. system is and how it is going to change to conform to their views (this will never happen)is sickening.

It is not a good "text" book and professors should never subject their students to this mess of a "learning tool."
