V old’s Theoretical Criminology, International Sixth Edition, presents the most precise, up-to-date, and comprehensive overview of criminological theory available, building on the

foundation of George B. Vold’s Theoretical Criminology, which paved the way for a generation of criminological theorists. Coupled with new, student-friendly features, the sixth edition features expanded discussions of: empirical research within specific theories; the “biosocial” approach; theoretical explanations for gendered differences in crime; low self-control and the general theory of crime; Control Balance Theory; and General Strain Theory. In addition, the text covers such new topical areas as Lonnie Athens’s Theory of “Violentization;” Agnew’s General Theory; Zimbardo’s “Lucifer Effect;” the Cambridge Youth Violence Study; and Coercion and Social Support.

I have been impressed with the previous editions of this highly regarded textbook, and the new, updated edition continues that fine tradition. The reviews of theoretical approaches and associated research are consistently comprehensive, balanced, and highly readable. Vold’s Theoretical Criminology excels at two levels: it works well in the classroom, and it serves as a valuable resource for the professional criminologist.”

E conometric Theory and Methods, International Edition, provides a unified treatment of modern econometric theory and practical econometric methods. The geometrical approach to least

squares is emphasized, as is the method of moments, which is used to motivate a wide variety of estimators and tests.

Features• Unified Approach: New concepts are linked to old ones whenever

possible, and the notation is consistent both within and across chapters.

• Geometry of Ordinary Least Squares: Introduced in Chapter 2, this method provides students with valuable intuition and allows them to avoid a substantial amount of tedious algebra later in the text.

• Modern Concepts Introduced Early: These include the bootstrap (Chapter 4), sandwich covariance matrices (Chapter 5), and artificial regressions (Chapter 6).

• Inclusive Treatment of Mathematics: Mathematical and statistical concepts are introduced as they are needed, rather than isolated in appendices or introductory chapters not linked to the main body of the text.

• Advanced Topics: Among these are models for duration and count data, estimating equations, the method of simulated moments, methods for unbalanced panel data, a variety of unit root and cointegration tests, conditional moment tests, nonnested hypothesis tests, kernel density regression, and kernel regression.

M any instructors of microeconomic theory have been waiting for a text that provides balanced and in-depth analysis of the essentials of microeconomics. Masterfully combining

the results of years of teaching microeconomics at Harvard University, Andreu Mas-Colell, Michael Whinston, and Jerry Green have filled that conspicuous vacancy with their groundbreaking text, Microeconomic Theory. The authors set out to create a solid organizational foundation upon which to build the effective teaching tool for microeconomic theory. The result presents unprecedented depth of coverage in all the essential topics, while allowing professors to “tailor-make” their course to suit personal priorities and style.

Clear, comprehensive, and deep! The authors’ treatment is both contemporary and probing, covering all aspects of modern microeconomic theory at a level accessible to graduate students, and which goes beyond simple statement of results to underscore the underlying intuition. This text should be a standard for graduate study in microeconomics!”

A n Introduction to Game Theory, International Edition, by Martin J. Osborne, presents the main principles of game theory and shows how they can be used to understand economic,

social, political, and biological phenomena. The book introduces in an accessible manner the main ideas behind the theory rather than their mathematical expression. All concepts are defined precisely, and logical reasoning is used throughout. The book requires an understanding of basic mathematics but assumes no specific knowledge of economics, political science, or other social or behavioral sciences.

What distinguishes this book from other texts is its remarkable combination of rigor and accessibility. The central concepts of game theory are presented with the mathematical precision suitable for a graduate course, but with an abundance of wide-ranging examples that will give undergraduate students a concrete understanding of what the concepts mean and how they may be used.”

phIlosophy | Introduction to Philosophy13

T his historically organized introductory text treats philosophy as a dramatic and continuous story--a conversation about humankind’s deepest and most persistent concerns. Tracing

the exchange of ideas among history’s key philosophers, The Great Conversation: A Historical Introduction to Philosophy, International Fifth Edition, demonstrates that while constructing an argument or making a claim, one philosopher almost always has others in mind. The book addresses the fundamental questions of human life: Who are we? What can we know? How should we live? and What sort of reality do we inhabit?

This is unquestionably the best philosophy textbook I have ever read. My students love the book. Melchert writes with utter clarity and his examples are superb. His careful choice of primary sources and brilliant use of them in his prose is nothing short of genius. Melchert’s text shatters all of my textbook nightmares.”

I ntroducing Philosophy: A Text with Integrated Readings, International Tenth Edition, is an exciting, accessible, and thorough introduction to the core problems of philosophy and the many

Lucidly written and expansive in scope, Islam: The Straight Path, International Third Edition, provides keen insight into one of the world’s least understood religions.

This is an excellent, comprehensive, and highly accessible introduction to Islam and its civilization; Muslims and their societies in the pre-modern to the modern period; and contemporary intellectual and political trends. In my opinion, it really is the single best introduction to Islam and Muslims today. The book keeps getting better and better with each new edition!”

A Modern History of Japan: From Tokugawa Times to the Present, International Second Edition, paints a richly nuanced and strikingly original portrait of the last two centuries

of Japanese history. The new edition of this acclaimed text places modern Japan within an international context and provides the most comprehensive post-war coverage available.

The book examines Japan’s struggles to define the meaning of its modernization, from villages and urban neighborhoods, to factory floors and middle managers’ offices, to the imperial court. Most importantly, it illuminates the interconnectedness of Japanese developments with world history, demonstrating how Japan’s historical passage represents a variation of a process experienced by many nations and showing how the Japanese narrative forms one part of the interwoven fabric of modern history. This second edition incorporates increased coverage of both Japan’s role within East Asia—particularly with China, Korea, and Manchuria—as well as expanded discussions of cultural and intellectual history.
