“This NEW work from William S. Hein & Co., Inc. will take readers one step further than other texts on the market. Most other comparative works in the area of criminal justice are primarily dedicated to the issue of reforming criminal procedure. This work, on the other hand, forgoes a reform-oriented analysis in favour of clarifying the criminal process in other countries as they exist today.

This work is unique and distinctive as it provides readers with a retrospective launching point from which to understand and compare current processes. Comparative Criminal Procedure is not just another criminal procedure casebook!” Continue to brochure.
