      • Rich examples from real research making the ideas and concepts concrete
      • New in-depth case studies on fashion counterfeiting, electronic monitoring and youth justice to illustrate the realities of conducting qualitative research
      • A full discussion of the politics of research, issues of access, ethics and managing risk in the field
      • Thought-provoking exercises reinforce practical research skills

      This book is the perfect guide to theory and practice for any student undertaking qualitative research on crime or criminal justice.
