Adventures in Criminology

Sir Leon Radzinowicz is one of the leading figures in the development of
criminology in the twentieth century, working as an academic criminologist,
an adviser to governments and as the founding Director of the Institute of
Criminology at the University of Cambridge.
This account intertwines Sir Leon’s personal narrative as a criminologist
with the development of criminology itself. Drawing on his long career
spanning seventy years, from the 1920s to the present day, he writes about
fundamental changes which have affected our understanding of crime and
criminals, of criminal justice and penal systems, and of the tensions and
dilemmas these pose for democratic societies.
He offers a unique perspective on the intellectual and institutional history
of criminology within a wide comparative perspective.
