'Appearance Bias and Crime fully and intricately analyzes a previously unexamined form of inequality that intersects with criminal involvement and criminal victimization. This path-breaking new book details the influence of physical appearance on all stages of the crime control process. In a comprehensive study of public and official judgements made about suspects, offenders, and victims, we find that physical appearance - overlapping with demographic traits, such as race, gender, age, social class and with socially denigrated features such LGBTQ status, unusual grooming, disability, and unattractiveness - impacts decisions made about ordinary street crime as well as human trafficking, terrorism, and other forms of criminality. Explanations and solutions for appearance bias are offered. A must-read for all students of criminology.'
