Book Synopsis Gender, Crime, and Punishment by : Kathleen Daly
Book excerpt: Are men and women who are prosecuted for similar crimes punished differently? If women are sentenced more leniently, does it vary with race and class? This work explores these issues and others by focusing on a variety of processed court cases such as homicide, robbery and drug offences.
