"In the last 25 years, the idea of "integration" in criminology has been bandied about as the wave of the future of the field, but nowhere has this concept been embraced with such vigour or commitment as displayed in The Explanation of Crime: Context, Mechanisms, and Development edited by Per-Olof H. Wikström and Robert J. Sampson. Assembling a stellar group of first-rate scholars representing a wide range of disciplinary interests, this volume is organized around three of the most important concepts in the understanding of crime - social context, mechanisms (processes), and individual development. A variety of fundamental topics including models of scientific explanation, the role of community context, situational mechanisms, behavioural genetics and environmental contributions, developmental risk and serious delinquency, self-control and social control, and desistance from crime are covered here and each in a provocative and innovative manner. Each author challenges the reader and often encourages them to disagree, all for the sake of a better understanding of crime. In a field that has become increasingly timid and afraid of bold ideas, this volume is a welcome relief. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in cross-level knowledge of crime." - John H.

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in cross-level knowledge of crime." - John H. Laub Department of Criminology, University of Maryland, "The essays in this volume are amongst the most stimulating and original collections so far published, focusing explicitly on the theoretical foundations of developmental criminology. They take the analyses way beyond risk factors and a preoccupation with statistical sophistication to address the core questions of the processes through which human beings across the lifecourse shape and are shaped by their environments, and how individual factors and social contexts at multiple levels can be theorized simultaneously. In short, the authors provide a range of powerful new tools for thinking creatively about pathways into and out of crime." - Ross Homel, Foundation Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Griffith University, Australia, 'This first volume in the 'Pathways in Crime' series is a very timely book. It will definitely enhance scholarly debate in international criminology and significantly add to progress in empirical research on the complex dynamics of crime causation and control. By means of addressing an integrating/integrative approach with three key concepts: 'context', 'mechanisms', and 'development', Per-Olof H. Wikstrm and Robert J. Sampson as editors and authors, together with the other internationally highly renowned authors, have been extremely successful in delineating a unified scholarly perspective of the dynamic interplay of behavioural contexts and individual differences in crime causation. This will also considerably influence practitioners and policy-makers in the field of community crime prevention.' Hans-J. Kerner, Director of the Institut fr Kriminologie, Universitt Tbingen, 'This is a terrific book. With its focus on different situational mechanisms linking social contexts to individual actions, it will appeal not only to criminologists but also to sociologists and other social scientists interested in explaining why individuals do what they do.' Peter Hedstr m, Nuffield College, Oxford, 'In The Explanation of Crime, Wikstr m and Sampson have brought together the field's best inter- and multi-disciplinary thinkers to consider how context, mechanisms and development integrate to shape crime over the life course.'

Kerner, Director of the Institut f r Kriminologie, Universitat T bingen, '... mindful of the readership of this journal, I encourage the profession to approach the many teachings found in this well-written and superbly edited (and elegant) book as if the book's conclusions regarding the integrated scientific knowledge on crime causation were couched by probation officers in the course of a highly technical pre-sentence report.' The Criminal Law Quarterly, "Very rarely today in criminology do books make the sort of intellectual contribution necessary to shape and re-shape the field's thinking. By taking what is ultimately necessary to put forth big and new ideas, Wikstrom has done criminologists a large service by giving us the theoretical and empirical roadmap to follow for the next twenty-five years of research. This roadmap makes sense and good use of the current knowledge base, extends it to include both individual differences and situational factros, and explores notions of human agency in an effort to understand crime and criminal events." - King's Law Journal, "Overall, the book is very interesting, intellectually stimulating, and even a little wild (e.g. Le Blanc presents vortex-like figures to illustrate the development of self and social control from a chaos theory viewpoint). The tradition in criminology has been to separate contextual and individual explanations of crime; this book points toward the importance of integrating these explanations and discovering the mechanisms by which they interact." - Canadian Journal of Sociology Online, Paul-Philippe Paré and Kenneth J. Preston, University of Western Ontario, 'In The Explanation of Crime, Wikström and Sampson have brought together the field's best inter- and multi-disciplinary thinkers to consider how context, mechanisms and development integrate to shape crime over the life course.'
