"""This welcome collection fills a gap in the literature on criminology and criminal justice in Nigeria. The chapters comprehensively examine the practice of criminal justice and the theoretical frameworks that underpin it. Furthermore, the authors explore the policy implications of criminological theories and their relevance in the Nigerian context. This book is highly recommended for researchers and students interested in an accessible study of criminology and criminal justice in Nigeria."" --O. Oko Elechi, Mississippi Valley State University"
