Best book for teaching statistics to criminologists

This is an absolutely wonderful book to work with when teaching statistics to a public that doesn't like statistics... the examples bring the material alive, the explanations are deep and clear, and, when taught skillfully, one can be pretty confident that a class following the book will produce people who know the material and can implement it to their criminological research.
