  This report aims to introduce many key facets of contemporary criminal justice. Robert Harris argues that only by working together more closely can criminal justice professionals ensure that the mistakes of the past are avoided in the future. He provides information about current knowledge in such areas as criminal statistics, victims, fear of crime and crime prevention. More controversially, he also discusses the treatment of women and ethnic minorities by the criminal justice system, the question of a sentencing council and the future of community corrections.
