This book combines extracts and materials on criminal justice with substantial critical discussion and analysis. It provides convenient access for students to a range of important materials from journal articles, official reports, statistical surveys, reports from pressure groups, Home Office studies and other sources. Chapters address the key stages of the criminal justice system in sequence: entry to the criminal justice system; investigating crime and preparing prosecution cases; courts and trials; and sentencing. The book is also structured around five key themes: the management of discretion, allocating resources, community and community values, fairness and discrimination, and victims of crime. Throughout the authors are concerned to explain the criminal justice process in terms of a series of interrelated decisions, stressing the importance of individual discretion and decision-making by criminal justice agencies. The authors have published widely in the field of criminal justice, and have been invovled in teaching criminal justice at undergraduate and postgraduate level, and on professional courses.

Excerpt from Memoirs of Eminently Pious Women, Vol. 1 of 2: Who Were Ornaments to Their Sex, Blessings to Their Country, and Edifying Examples to the Church and WorldThe Work, of which an improved Edition is now presented to the religious public, has progressively advanced to the state in which it now appears. What is now comprised in the first volume, was compiled by the Rev. Dr. Gibbons, and appeared in 1777, in two volumes 8vo. It was repub lished in 1804 with an additional volume, compiled by the Rev. Dr. Jerment. To these a third volume was added, in the year 1815, on the publication of a new and corrected edition. The Editor, in the preface to that edition, stated, however, that while he considered the Memoirs as exhibiting an interesting picture of genuine Christianity, he did not hold himself responsible for all the sentiments and Opinions thus recorded; especially in the former two volumes, which were given without any mate rial alteration.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International  Encyclopaedia of Laws, this analysis of media law in the United Kingdom  surveys the massively altered and enlarged legal landscape traditionally  encompassed in laws pertaining to freedom of expression and regulation of  communications.    Everywhere, a shift from mass media to mass self-communication has put  enormous pressure on traditional law models. An introduction describing the  main actors and salient aspects of media markets is followed by in-depth  analyses of print media, radio and television broadcasting, the Internet,  commercial communications, political advertising, concentration in media  markets, and media regulation. Among the topics that arise for discussion are  privacy, cultural policy, protection of minors, competition policy, access to  digital gateways, protection of journalists' sources, standardization and  interoperability, and liability of intermediaries. Relevant case law is  considered throughout, as are various ethical codes.   A clear, comprehensive overview of media legislation, case law, and doctrine,  presented from the practitioner's point of view, this book is a valuable  time-saving resource for all concerned with media and communication freedom.  Lawyers representing parties with interests in the United Kingdom will welcome  this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its  value in the study of comparative media law.
