Description

A book designed for Criminal Justice Organization and Criminal Justice Administration classes, written for scholars and practitioners. This text fills a gap in traditional management texts by focusing on administrative decision-making as it relates to planning and managing change at the organizational level. Organizational theories and administrative concepts are clearly defined and applied to criminal justice agencies through four sections: structure, relationships, control, and planning. The book features learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter.

"The opinions and experiences of the authors break up the content and engage the reader. The personal tone is a nice break from a strictly academic text!" - Cyndi Rickards, Drexel University
