This book is excellent in explaining concepts of criminal law. It is extremely detailed in the Penal Code and the justice system statues. It has
an excellent reference section in the back of the book. It provides definitions and a glossary. This book breaks up the sections of criminal law to give you individual overviews of each topic. Very detailed. Excellent BOOK!!

I bought this book for my crim law class, and when it arrived, I noticed I had accidentally bought this older 4th edition.(The latest and greatest 6th edition IS available from Amazon)
I still used it all semester because I was too lazy to return it, and my laziness was rewarded. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this 4th edition is pretty much the same book as the latest edition.
Compared to my classmate's 6th edition, there appears to be no differences in the material covered, and the only difference appeared to be the page numbering. For example, the material found on pg 200 would be found on 196, or vice versa. However, no material seems to be missing from the 4th edition. The chapter numbers and their corresponding subjects are consistent as well.
The book itself is overall a good textbook. I found it pretty easy to understand, and organized well. I liked the index of cases in the back, which was useful while writing papers.
If you need this book and want to save some cash, I highly recommend getting this edition. If you have an anal professor or have a need for the latest and greatest, check out the 6th edition instead.
The best textbook ever for CJ or Criminal Law classes August 28, 2009
up2date
I had this book for 1.5 years and used it in Criminal Justice and Criminal Law classes. It is great because it lists the criminal law cases at the end of the book and has a glossary. Sometimes there is a lot of law lingo inolved and one must "get it", but in general it is good to understand. I highly recommend this book and will keep it for future reference.
