The Victimology Handbook prepares the student with a foundation of knowledge to initiate an understanding of the world that exists for victims of crime, and how criminal justice practitioners seek to provide assistance to this vulnerable, distressed population.
This handbook continues to serve in its fourth edition as a unique resource text for students as they journey to comprehend a victim's journey at different stages of the criminal justice process. Conceptualizing the victim in separate crimes, coupled with descriptions of the numerous victim assistance programs, will enable students to navigate through the complex world of victimology.
Additionally, this text can serve students as a guide to resources if they ever become or are already a victim of a crime themselves.
