Anthology in Law and the Social Sciences: While this book does not purport or pretend to have all the answers to the many social challenges that we face in life, it certainly does raise some thought-provoking questions for us to think through. I hasten to add, however, that the book is not a work of fiction. Neither is it about motivation like many motivational books that are on the bookshelves today. Rather, it is an example of public intellectualism in Law and the Social Sciences. The book distills complex ideas that are often confined to the academic world into more easily discernible ideas by everyone, including the laity. Such is a cardinal objective of the book \2013 to provoke some critical thinking across a broad spectrum of society on certain topical themes pertaining to Law and the Social Sciences. With an inter- and multi-disciplinary focus, the book cuts across many contemporary themes in the Law and Social Science discourse

Crime and Modernity represents a significant contribution to the ability of criminology and the sociology of crime to confront the dilemmas and controversies of the twenty first century. In Crime and Modernity, John Lea develops a broad historical and sociological overview relating the rise and fall of effective crime control to different types of social structures

It is argued that the impacts of computer technology on society are an extraordinarily important area for rigorous social scientific research. However, there is currently only a modest amount of empirical research & a dearth of cumulative findings on this subject, & the conceptual & theoretical approaches informing the research are weak. After specifying the primary sources of the understandings about the social impacts of computing, a taxonomy of impacts & a conceptual framework that might guide social scientific research on this subject are suggested. Finally, eight broad generalizations that can be derived from the existing empirical research on the social impacts of computing are summarized. 1 Table, 1 Figure, 80 References. HA

Since biology is the study of living organisms, their behavior & social systems, & since humans are living organisms, it is possible to suggest that social sciences (the study of human behavior & social systems) are branches of biology & all social scientific theories should be consistent with known biological principles. To claim otherwise & to establish a separate science only for humans might be analogous to the establishment of hydrogenology, the study of hydrogen separate from & inconsistent with the rest of physics. Evolutionary psychology is the application of evolutionary biology to humans, & provides the most general (panspecific) explanations of human behavior, cognitions, emotions, & human social systems. Evolutionary psychology's recognition that humans are animals can explain some otherwise perplexing empirical puzzles in social sciences, such as why there is a wage penalty for motherhood but a wage reward for fatherhood, & why boys produce a greater wage reward for fathers than do girls. The General Social Survey data illustrate the evolutionary psychological argument that reproductive success is important for both men's & women's happiness, but money is only important for men's. 1 Table, 1 Figure, 74 References.
