Crime, Shame and Reintegration
"This book seems likely to become a classic.  It will be widely read, and its claims should inspire a good deal of empirical research.  If the theory of reintegrative shaming proves to explain even a portion of the topics Braithwaite addresses, this book will have made an important, lasting contribution."   Joel Best, Social Forces"Anyone who wants to become or remain well informed about theories of crime and deviance should have this book on the bookshelf."   Contemporary Sociology
