This fourth edition of Justice Administration: Police, Courts, and Corrections Management continues to be the sole book of its kind: a single author’s examination of all facets of the criminal justice system as well as several related matters of interest to prospective and actual administrators.
The author has held several administrative and academic positions in a criminal justice career spanning more than 30 years; thus, this book’s chapters contain a palpable “real world” flavor not found in most textbooks.
More than 30 case studies are disseminated throughout the text, these case studies are intended to allow the reader to experience some of the kinds of problems confronted daily by justice administrators; with a fundamental knowledge of the system, and a reading of the chapters in the respective book part, readers should be in a position to arrive at several feasible solutions to each problem that is presented.
In addition to the chapters concerning police, courts, and corrections administration, also included are chapters on personnel and financial administration, rights of criminal justice employees, technology, discipline and liability, and futures.
Articles from Law Enforcement News and other sources are interspersed throughout the book, and this edition also includes a new chapter concerning ethics in criminal justice.
Other chapter sections that have been added or expanded deal with bioterrorism, racial profiling, school violence, vehicle pursuits, judicial selection, jury administration, gender bias, and women in corrections. Also new to this edition are key terms and concepts and chapter learning objectives, which appear at the beginning of each chapter.
Criminal justice is a people business. This book reflects that fact as it looks at human foibles and some of the problems of personnel and policy in justice administration. Thanks to many innovators in the field, however, a number of ex citing and positive changes are occurring.
The general goal of the book is to inform the reader of the primary people, practices, and terms that are utilized in justice administration.
There may well be activities, policies, actions, and my own views with which the reader will disagree. This is not at all bad, because in the management of people and agencies there are no absolutes, only ideas and endeavors to make the system better.
From its beginning (which includes an introduction by the president of the National Judicial College, Hon. William F. Dressel) through its final chapter, the reader is provided with a comprehensive and penetrating view of what is certainly one of the most difficult and challenging positions that one can occupy in America: the administration of a criminal justice agency.
