Recensioner i media

"This book deserves a secure place on green criminology bookshelves. Highly recommended."Piers Beirne, University of Southern Maine, Choice review"The Treadmill of Crime proves itself to be a major development in green criminology research. Stretesky, Long, and Lynch succeed in providing criminologists with an important, interdisciplinary theoretical perspective on why green crimes occur, which keeps political economy as the fundamental component in the understanding of environmental harm. The application of ToP in Treadmill of Crime makes the text rich with numerous examples of green crime, drawing from criminology, sociology, environmental studies, and public health literature. As such, The Treadmill of Crime is relevant for a wide audience, and is not only an important read for professionals engaged in green criminology research, but may also be of interest to practitioners working in areas of corporate crime, environmental justice, conservation, and/or environmental law. This book is also appropriate for graduate and undergraduate students, and could readily be adapted as a supporting text in a green criminology, environmental crime, environmental sociology, environmental justice, or corporate crime course."Kimberly L Barrett, Eastern Michigan University, Punishment and Society
