• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1991, The Case for the Prosecution examines the entire process of arrest through to conviction. The book is a landmark in the study of criminal justice in Britain, and gives valuable information about the working of the police and the Crown Prosecution Service. The book provides strong empirical, theoretical and policy contributions to the field and should prompt lawyers to re-revaluate their role and the way they perform it. It is vital reading for anyone practising or studying criminal justice or law.
