Book Reviews of Robbing Drug Dealers: Violence Beyond the Law (New Lines in Criminology)

Book Review: Stories and Insight
Summary: 5 Stars

Bruce Jacobs has produced two books -- Dealing Crack (1999) and Robbing Drug Dealers (2000) -- that accurately portray and insightfully dissect the world of drug trade. Perhaps the most competent judges of criminological research are criminals, and the ideas and stories found in Jacobs' work would likely provide practical as well as theoretical insights for both drug dealers and drug robbers.
