In this second edition, Hester expands the theoretical scope, incorporating contemporary themes like gender, race, class, and postcolonialism, alongside the core criminological theories. With detailed case studies, international examples, and a wealth of critical analysis, this book remains an essential text for criminologists and those seeking a deeper understanding of crime's social construction. The addition of questions, exercises, and further readings makes it a valuable resource for students and scholars alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TAYLOR AND FRANCIS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49848182604080,"sku":"Sarat_9781138960480","price":5752.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/taylor-and-francis-book-default-title-a-sociology-of-crime-second-edition-40987139866928.jpg?v=1775946743","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/a-sociology-of-crime-second-edition","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
