A respected scholar in the early law and society movement, Skolnick interviewed police and criminals, rode extensively with police detectives and attended interrogations, and ultimately saw police conduct and mentality from the inside, before such methodology became popular. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEvery student of law and society knows this book: now it is available again with a new Foreword by Dr. McCoy and a new Preface by the author.
