 | Thinking about Crime: Sense and Sensibility in American Penal Culture (Studies in Crime and Public Policy) (Updated Edition) by Michael H. Tonry Paperback, 272 Pages, Published 2006 ISBN-10: 0-19-530490-X / 019530490X ISBN-13: 978-0-19-530490-9 / 9780195304909 Crime is an American preoccupation. Campaigns such as "the war on drugs," zero tolerance policing, and three strikes and you're out―not to mention the ever-shrill coverage of crime stories―all suggest a perpetually outraged nation determined to keep its criminal element at bay, no matter the cost. | |
