description: Renzetti (U. of Dayton), Goodstein (U. of Connecticut), and Miller (U. of Delaware) present a follow-up volume to their 2001 Women, Crime, and Criminal Original Feminist Readings, designed to be accessible to undergraduate students lacking previous exposure to criminology or criminal justice. The text features 18 original chapters written by 29 American academics, researchers, and consultants which shed light on women's experiences in the American criminal justice system--as prisoners, police officers, lawyers, judges, and correctional officers--and how they differ from the experiences of men.
