This book is primarily intended to provide an introduction to criminology as an academic degree subject area of study for first year students at Higher Education institutions in Wales. This was the impetus to develop a comprehensive academic textbook in Welsh that would introduce students to critical aspects of pursuing and studying criminology for themselves. As well as offering the resource in the Welsh language, the volume also asks students to relate theories of criminology within the context of crime in contemporary Wales.
