Crimes are defined as acts outside of society's rules of proper behavior. Some are crimes in all societies, e.g., murder and robbery; some differ in other cultures. In the U.S., we have changed our ideas on crime. In colonial times, idleness was considered a crime and white-collar crime and computer hacking were far distant. Our legislators define crime and its punishment and some definitions are unique to individual states. These volumes provide you with the evolution of the American criminal justice system from juvenile justice to organized crime. Each begins with a 10-page timeline of events and a 15-page glossary. Volumes have black-and-white photographs and insert boxes with additional information. A cumulative index is provided as a separate volume. This set is a must purchase. --Blanche Woolls, September 2005
