"Research Ethics in Criminology offers a comprehensive insight into the practicalities and difficulties confronted by students and academics conducting research into sensitive topic areas. Drawing on a wide range of expertise the book has been assembled with the needs of students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, foremost in mind and is, without doubt, an essential companion for those studying and researching within and around the discipline of criminology."Dr Samantha Weston, Lecturer in Criminology, Keele University, UK"This edited collection is a timely and significant contribution to the field of criminology and to the praxis of criminological research. The essays in the collection stand as thought provoking interventions in what is a challenging academic climate. Taken together, they are a 'must read' for students, researchers, and anyone else interested in the ethics and governance of social research."Dr Jaime Waters, Senior Lecturer in Criminology, Sheffield Hallam University, UK Read more...
