Summary:
Fifteen years have passed since the second edition and this edition is a substantial renovation that extends over 1,000 pages. Criminal sentencing is regularly the subject of political and community comment and, given the flux in legislation and its judicial treatment, the third edition was overdue. Whilst the title focuses on Victoria, the book is useful in other jurisdictions because it draws on appellate decisions and a range of legislation from other jurisdictions to analyse sentencing principles.
