{"product_id":"0134372867","title":"SGARZI: VICTIMOLOGY _p","description":"\n\n\u003cp\u003e Today the word 'Victim\" is used in many different ways. In this book the authors have attempted to provide information on a wide array of crimes within their individual contexts. By presenting the material, in this manner, the authors hope to demonstrate to the reader the range of victimization experiences that crime victims are forced to deal with. The authors believe that this methodology offers a richer and more realistic approach to understanding the process of victimization and the coping mechanisms that victims employ to deal with their particular experiences. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Karmen defined victimology as: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \"The scientific study of victimization, including the relationships between the victims and the offenders, the interactions between victims and the criminal justice system - that is the police, the courts, and corrections officials - and the connection between victims and other societal groups and institutions, such as the media, business, and social movements.\" (Karmen, 1990) \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \"The uniqueness of this text is the inclusion of issues of victimization not commonly found in existing texts, but worthy of incorporation.\"\u003cbr\u003e -- Lee Ross, \u003ci\u003eUniversity of Wisconsin-Parkside\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiographies \u0026amp; Memoirs\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue Crime\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBook details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e McDevitt M.P.A., Jack,Sgarzi Ph.D., Judith M.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pearson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 397\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780134372860\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pearson","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":49275141652670,"sku":"0134372867-4","price":24.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/41XREVJSW6L._SL500.jpg?v=1791917204","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0134372867","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
