Lippman provides a more academic and thorough approach, and SAGE is developing instructor guides and power point presentations for the textbook, which should prove very helpful. In sum, I whole-heartedly endorse Lippman's book for Criminal Law, and I look forward to using it in my own classes. -Glenn Coffey, University of North FloridaContemporary Criminal Law: Concepts, Cases, and Controversies is an introductory text that features the new criminal law, expanding on traditional criminal law cases and concepts with contemporary topics and issues.
