Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Qualitative Criminology by : Heith Copes
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Qualitative Criminology written by Heith Copes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite illustrious origins dating to the 1920s, qualitative crime research has long been overshadowed by quantitative inquiry. After decades of limited use, there has been a notable resurgence in crime ethnography, naturalistic inquiry, and related forms of fieldwork addressing crime and related social control efforts. The Routledge Handbook of Qualitative Criminology signals this momentum as the first major reference work dedicated to crime ethnography and related fieldwork orientations. Synthesizing the foremost topics and issues in qualitative criminology into a single definitive work, the Handbook provides a "first-look" reference source for scholars and students alike. The collection features twenty original chapters on leading qualitative crime research strategies, the complexities of collecting and analyzing qualitative data, and the ethical propriety of researching active criminals and incarcerated offenders. Contributions from both established luminaries and talented emerging scholars highlight the traditions and emerging trends in qualitative criminology through authoritative overviews and "lived experience" examples. Comprehensive and current, The Routledge Handbook of Qualitative Criminology promises to be a sound reference source for academics, students and practitioners as ethnography and fieldwork realize continued growth throughout the 21st Century.

Download or read book Outrageous Fortune written by Tom Bower and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2006-11-07 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise and fall of media tycoon Conrad Black and his journalist wife, Barbara Amiel, is one of the great stories of the modern business world. In Outrageous Fortune, London-based journalist Tom Bower reveals how Conrad and Lady Black used other people's money to finance a billionaire's lifestyle, winning friends and influence in London and New York along the way. Their story of overweening ambition and greed is a modern-day classic of hubris. Born into considerable wealth in Canada, Conrad Black bought and sold (but never effectively managed) several businesses, from mining and tractors to broadcasting companies and newspapers. In 1985 Black's holding com-pany, Hollinger, bought the Telegraph Group, the British newspaper publishing conglomerate. In the years that followed, Black additionally became the proprietor of the Chicago Sun-Times, the Jerusalem Post, and a host of other magazines and newspapers in the English-speaking world. In 1992 Conrad married Barbara Amiel, who later famously said, "I have an extravagance that knows no bounds." Besotted by his wife, he began living way beyond his means. Fabulous parties, jewelry, clothes, and multiple mansions followed, and by 2001 Black had renounced his Canadian citizenship—which he called "an impediment to my progress in another more amenable jurisdiction"—in order to become a life peer in the British House of Lords. But the scheming deceptive duo's lies came crashing down when, in November 2003, an American report accused Black of "outright fraud," "ethical corruption," and "corporate kleptocracy." Black was forced out as Hollinger's chief executive, and two years later he was charged with eight counts of fraud—allegations that he will vigorously deny at his trial in Chicago, beginning in March of 2007. Based on hundreds of interviews with bankers, politicians, journalists, mega-deal makers, and close friends of Conrad and Lady Black, Outrageous Fortune is packed with lively anecdotes and salacious gossip. It is a hugely enter-taining and engrossing account of gullibility in high places.

Download or read book Fayed written by Tom Bower and published by Pan Macmillan Adult MM. This book was released on 2001 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mohamed Fayed has become Britain's most controversial tycoon. Flamboyant and condemned by DTI inspectors as a 'liar' and 'guilty of deception on a grand scale', Fayed, who has always bitterly attacked these findings has defied his critics and, unrestrained, has wilfully imposed himself on British public life. Taking the fiery Egyptian as his latest subject, Tom Bower has produced an outstanding biography of compulsive readability whose authority is enhanced by conversations with Fayed and over 200 of his friends and enemies. The tormented and bizarre journey of the poor boy from Egypt who became the self-proclaimed king of Knightsbridge is a saga reminiscent of an epic Hollywood thriller . . . 'A brilliant insight into the career of a driven man . . . a fascinating study in ambition' Express 'An unforgettable demolition job' Guardian 'There is enough sex and intrigue here for a sequel to the Arabian Nights' Sunday Times 'Tom Bower has triumphantly told the truth about an awful man' Spectator
