“Akrivos and Antoniou’s edited volume adopts a multidisciplinary approach that offers a snapshot of the dynamic, ever-evolving landscape of popular media and representations of deviance and crime in the twenty-first century. The collection of media chosen by the book’s contributors is admirably broad.” (Ashley Pearson, Ksenia Gałuskina and Thomas Giddens, International Journal for the Semiotics of Law, Vol. 32 (2), June, 2019)
