Publisher Description: Understanding Victimology: An Active-Learning Approach explains what the field of victimology is--including its major theoretical perspectives and research methods--and provides insight into the dynamics of various offline and online crimes from the victims' vantage point. It is the only textbook to provide numerous innovative active learning exercises to enhance and reinforce student learning, and it addresses important contemporary topics that have thus far not been covered by other victimology texts, including identity theft, hate crimes, and terrorism. This unique and relevant work is ideal for students, academics, and practitioners who are interested in a comprehensive introduction to victimology. |
