I've used this book for the last couple years, and in fact I am one of the listed reviewers the publisher used for the last edition. I think the author does a decent job of presenting the material overall. Thbe book has a very pro-CJ approach, which makes it a good choice for students. There are other books on the market that take a more "preachy" approach to ethics, and you can tell the authors often think that CJ professionals are beneath them. That's why I like this book, the author is clearly writing for a profession she has respect for and it shows.

This has some good "real world" application and provides clear explanations. The best material is that a student can not only understand but also apply at later times.

I supplement the book with more theory at points, so I guess my only recommendation would be to strengthen that area. That would make the book longer, though, and would probably price it much differently. For what it is, this is a good introductory book for ethics in CJ. The text can spark a reader's interest in the topic or serve as a good foundation for future professionals.

Came as promised, in promised time. The book was described exactly as it came. I plan to use this company again in the future. Thank you :)

Arrived much sooner than expected and quality was much better than advertised. Will DEFINITELY use
this web site for all my children's college books!!

The chapters are eye-opening and relevant to today's society.

Cons:
Terrorism Chapter, isn't very accurate from my POV of deployment in 2009
Following "moral instinct" is career-suicide.

The book was in great enough condition for me to be able to read it, and it allowed me to get throught the class without having to spend my life savings. thank you so much.

I used this book for my crimnal justice ethics course and I did not find it to be very useful. The only purpose this book served was for my quizes I took through the course, otherwise the rest of the material was from my professor. Even my professor didn't care for this book very much either.

I thought I was getting the 6th edition, my mistake. The two editions are very differently organized and I am going to have to buy the 6th edition to make sure I do well in my class. The book itself is fine and very informative. Wish there was a kindle version!!

The book that I received was in perfect condition. I received the book much quicker tha expected and was vey happy with my purchase.

The product is a very informative text in the field of ethics in the criminal justice system. It would be great for any class related to the aforementioned topic.

I bought this book brand new and it worked fine for what I needed it for.
