Zitat

"This most recent addition to ABC-CLIO's Contemporary World IssueS series offers a broad survey of the terrain. The series itself is uniformly attractive in terms of an appealing and easy-to-use format. Although any student of 'women and crime' would find some useful information in this volume. . . . Altogether, this reference work is a useful resource on a topic of growing interest and significance." - ARBA
