Criminology is the study of crime from four different perspectives. These include legal, political, sociological, and psychological. Initially, criminology examines crime from a legal point of view. This means that the criminal behavior is examined as it is in violation of the law.
Criminal Law is a new student law textbook aimed at students studying on an LLB or GDL course. Written in plain English, it provides students with a detailed understanding of the theoretical and substantive aspects of the law of crime, whilst maintaining a practice-based approach.
