The Invisible Woman: Gender, Crime, and Justice

Rating:
Summary: Great book for studying women in criminal justice
Review: I used this book for a college course and it was very easy to read, easy to understand, and held my attention. It's the first time I've wanted to read my school books! It was great about teaching specific statistics of women offenders, women victims, and professional women working in the criminal justice system. Highly recommended for any student studying criminal justice or anyone interested in the topic.

Summary: THE INVISIBLE WOMAN: GENDER,CRIME, AND JUSTICE (CONTEMPORARY
Review: The Invisible Woman...was a required text in a college course I attended at San Francisco State University. I found it to be very helpful in understanding complex issues surrounding women and the criminal injustice system.

Further, the book discusses issues surrounding the condition of women in relation to race, class, gender and political economy that many texts fail to disect honestly and realistically. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in educating themselves or others to the trails and tribulations women encure within the criminal injustice system!
