This review is from: Criminology Today: An Integrative Introduction (Hardcover)

I ordered this on Monday and it was shipped (expedited) next day. I needed this for a class ASAP and I really appreciate the quick response. I haven't received it yet, of course, but I'm still ecstatic about the FAST service on the seller's part.
