Gender and Justice is a unique core textbook that introduces key concepts through case studies. Each chapter opens with a compelling case study that illustrates key concepts, followed by a narrative chapter that builds on the case study to introduce essential elements. Each chapter features pedagogical elements-learning objectives, key terms, review and study questions, and suggestions for further learning and exploration. In addition to the unique case study approach, this book is distinctive in its inclusion of LGBTQ experiences in crime, victimization, processing, and punishment. Gender and Justice also addresses masculinity and the role it plays in defining offenders and victims, as well as challenges posed by the gender gap in offending.

Gender, Crime, and Justice: Learning through Cases

This book is an innovative pedagogical tool that will definitely enhance students' knowledge of the ways in which gender shapes criminal justice responses to crime and how the justice system shapes people' s understandings of gender. There is no other book like it and the authors should be commended for writing this much-needed text. -- Walter DeKeseredy, Anna Deane Carlson Endowed Chair of Social Sciences, West Virginia University Those looking for a more inclusive and intersectional analysis of the criminal legal system will be impressed by this comprehensive yet accessible text. Students will appreciate the engaging and memorable use of case studies to frame each chapter' s content. Although perfect for a gender and crime course, this text would also work well for those wanting to center race and gender in introductory courses. -- Allison J. Foley, Augusta University
