Summary: Informative - YES; balanced and unbiased - NO!
Comment: I purchased this book as recommended supplementary reading for a college level criminal justice course. The book is advertised as "Comprehensive and balanced" and "uniquely unbiased" on the back cover. I was hoping for a book that honestly and objectively presented both sides of the debate regarding race and crime. I am not qualified to debate the accuracy of the data presented, or to argue that the authors are incorrect in their charges of discrimination in the criminal justice system. However, the book adamantly asserts that discrimination is responsible for the disparity between races in the crime data and casually dismisses opposing arguments. The authors presentation is neither balanced or unbiased.
