Behavioral Theory in Sociology
This book is designed to honor George Caspar Homans for his many and varied contributions to the development of modern sociology. The chapters have been written by sociologists and psychologists who value his work sufficiently to have made his basic approach their own. These original essays are intended to elucidate, assess, and give a progress report on the theoretical tradition Homans founded and to which he has given such significant impetus.

Gender, Crime and Feminism
This text examines a variety of aspects of the relationship between feminism and criminology, looking at both female offenders and victims. Female crimes covered include prostitution, infanticide and the murder of husbands.
In Defense of Prisons
This book reviews recent research on imprisonment, and argues that punishments work in preventing crime and that prisons are at least a modestly successful means of social control. However, imprisonment is discussed as more than an instrument of social control and crime prevention. Prisons also reflect the cultural sensibilities of the larger society, and imprisonment is integral to the production and the reproduction of social norms, values, attitudes and beliefs.
