<p><strong>‘This innovative book is essential reading for anyone seeking a rich social scientific understanding of ethics in this current era.’ - </strong><i>Walter DeKeseredy, Anna Deane Carlson Endowed Chair of Social Sciences and Director of the Research Center on Violence at West Virginia University, USA</i></p><p><strong>‘Sharon Hayes provides a fresh, new approach to teaching criminal justice ethics. Beginning with strong foundational material covering what is ethics and why we should be ethical, she then moves on to societal ethics and morality. In contrast to most ethics textbooks, it is only after giving the reader this essential baseline that she then addresses situational ethics for law enforcement, courts and corrections. In a society that frequently questions individual and group ethics, this book helps bring much needed clarity and understanding.’ - </strong><i>Michael B. Shapiro, J.D., Clinical Instructor and Criminal Justice Coordinator at the Alpharetta Center, Georgia State University, USA</i></p><p><strong>‘Hayes’ <i>Criminal Justice Ethics</i> text offers instructors of Undergraduate criminal justice ethics courses the ability to provide students with a dynamic understanding of ethics by illustrating its evolution throughout humanity and how that history has informed ethical principles within the field of criminal justice.’ - </strong><i>Elizabeth Quinn, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Criminal Justice, Fayetteville</i><i> State University, USA</i></p><p><strong>'This book is essentially a text book aimed at undergraduates. It effectively marshals the foundation material and presents it in an accessible and applied form. The subject is engagingly brought to life through examples and case studies.'</strong> <em>- Dr Jamie Bennett, Prison Service Journal</em></p>
