Essentials of Statistics for Criminology and Criminal Justice teaches students how to conduct and interpret statistical analyses in real-world scenarios using a methodical approach to problem-solving, thereby assisting them in understanding the critical role that research and statistics play in the study of criminology and criminal justice. This hands-on, applied method spares complex proofs and theoretical explanations in favor of providing students with a clear, simple explanation of the principles of descriptive and inferential statistics. Students studying criminology and criminal justice will find the examples and case studies useful as they address current concerns about crime, the police, the courts, and corrections. In addition to learning the “how to” of statistics, students will also understand its significance in the modern criminal justice system.
