My order was shipped priority at no additonal cost. Very nice touch! I received my order within two business days and the book was like new. I would definitely recommend to anyone else!

Excellent!

This neat little book is a great reference for any criminal justice major, or even casual individual. The definitions are insightful, brief, and concise. The Supreme Court cases are the strong points of this book. Good background and gives you what you need to know, without excess information to confuse you. Whether it's looking up something for class or just curiousity, this is a good book to pick up.

Criminal Justice Dictionary

I am enjoying the use of this Dictionary. Words that are not defined in the Criminal Justice book I am currently reading for my studies are easily found in this dictionary. Towards the back of the book there is a section devoted to U.S. Supreme Court Cases. These cases are in alphabetical order, and there is even a guide to assist those who are not familiar with the reading citations. This dictionary was a great buy for me. It is helping me in my Criminal Justice studies.
