The idea for this collection - and the majority of the chapters in the book - originated from a most successful and enjoyable conference organised by the Editors on joint behalf of the British Society of Criminology (BSC) and the British Sociological Association (BSA), held at the University of Central England (now Birmingham City University) in April 2006. We would therefore like to thank these organisations for their support, and in particular Paul Kiff and Emma Hodgkinson at the BSC for their administrative assistance. Further thanks must also be given to our speakers and participants for their hard work and fruitful contributions. A number of chapters were sought to supplement the collection, and our thanks are conveyed to those authors as well. For their patience, assistance and editorial advice, we would like to express our thanks to Brian Willan and his colleagues at Willan Publishing, and we are also grateful to Alison Wagstaff for her invaluable work in preparing the papers for publication.
