| Abstract: | This article presents information about several books on crime. Some of them are as follows: "The Death Penalty: An American History," by Stuart Banner. Examining the death penalty's history from colonial times to the present, Banner discusses how various factors influenced evolution in the methods and procedures of execution, alteration in the number and types of capitally sanctioned crimes and changes in the public debate over the death penalty. "Beyond Repair? America's Death Penalty," edited by Stephen P. Garvey. These essays deal with recent developments and ongoing issues in the death penalty debate. Support for capital punishment remains high, deposit some indications of change. Recent opinion surveys are analyzed both to shed light on public support and for some expressions of doubt and whether a trend exists. "The Cambridge Handbook of Australian Criminology," edited by Adam Graycar and Peter Grabosky. Contributors look at current trends in Australian criminal law and process and assess future challenges. The system must cope with crimes unknown until recently, such as computer hacking and credit card fraud. |
