More Guns, Less Crime: Understanding Crime and Gun-Control

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lott, John R., Jr., PUBLISHER: University of Chicago Press, On its initial publication in , John R. Lott's "More Guns, Less Crime" drew both lavish praise and heated criticism. More than a decade later, it continues to play a key role in ongoing arguments over gun-control laws: despite all the attacks by gun-control advocates, no one has ever been able to refute Lott's simple, startling conclusion that more guns mean less crime. Relying on the most rigorously comprehensive data analysis ever conducted on crime statistics and right-to-carry laws, the book directly challenges common perceptions about the relationship of guns, crime, and violence. For this third edition, Lott draws on an additional ten years of data--including provocative analysis of the effects of gun bans in Chicago and Washington, D.C--that brings the book fully up to date and further bolsters its central contention.

Invisible No More: Understanding the Disenfranchisement of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Noguera, Pedro / Hurtado, Aa-Da / Fergus, Edward, PUBLISHER: Routledge, This groundbreaking interdisciplinary volume provides a comprehensive picture of Latino males in the US today and sets the direction of future research and policy intervention. While research on men and masculinity has increased substantially in recent years, very little of the new research has focused upon the status of Latino men or on the ways in which cultural and structural systems of patriarchy within Latino communities have been affected by the experiences of Latino men in American society. This collection, edited by renowned scholars Pedro Noguera, Aida Hurtado and Edward Fergus, brings together current research on education, health, criminal justice, mental health and employment. By drawing attention to the challenges facing this segment of the population the volume collectively establishes the first empirical basis for finding solutions to these problems.
