5.0 out of 5 stars Smooth Read...intellectual book that doesn't require a degree to read, July 5, 2006
This review is from: Crime and Nature (Paperback)
Marcus Felson's book Crime and Nature is a facisnating approah at describing crime. Crime Ecology is a fascinating subject and this book provides a detailed description of its theories. It is an intellectual book at heart, yet because of Felson's writing style it is easy to read. I recommend this book to anyone interested in criminology and students taking courses in the field.
