Criminology has a fascinating history. The history of criminology is the story of systematic human efforts to study and understand the capacity for crime and human bias. The history of criminology provides a moral description of modernity and provides an insight that reveals the central meaning and the meaning of humanity in our times. However, in many criminology textbooks, the story of criminology is often discussed in a summary and soulless way, and this is surprising, but this book is different.
We want to give the story of criminology and humanize it by relying on intellectual biographies and combining the details of the life stories of fifty important thinkers of criminology. We hope that this view of criminology will be useful for new students of this field as well as researchers of adjacent fields such as sociology, psychology, social geography, or history who seek to understand the "angles" of the strange field of criminology. The original works of the thinkers introduced in the book are largely familiar to criminology specialists, but the stories behind their thoughts are less so. The profiles depicted may change the way we think about the field of study and the beliefs that have shaped it.
