Written with sharp wit and intellectual precision, the authors dismantle prevailing myths about crime and punishment, arguing that the law has overreached into areas of personal morality — such as drug use, gambling, and sexual behaviour — at great social and financial cost. The book details practical, humane recommendations for reducing crime, reforming prisons, and restructuring policing, making it as provocative as it is pragmatic. A foundational text in legal and criminological scholarship, it remains an essential read for anyone serious about understanding the relationship between law, politics, and social order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887995629787,"sku":"2026200009369-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/28c9ea00-3d79-4da8-a402-922fc8293694.png?v=1781751893","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009369-secondhand-the-honest-politicians-guide-to-crime-control","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
