Reviews / Votes
"Maghan and Kelly have brought together an excellent collection of essays which hit the problem head-on. The editors' contributions add to the book, especially the article on the Ku Klux Klan by Kenny and Maghan's well-researched annotated biography on the subject. . . . In this book they have made a significant contribution to understanding the international dimensions and manifestations of hatred and brutality."-Crime & Justice InternationalMore details
