The Nurture Versus Biosocial Debate in Criminology: On the Origins of Criminal Behavior and Criminality
This book facilitates an open and honest debate about criminal behaviour between the more traditional criminologists who focus primarily on environmental factors and contemporary biosocial criminologists who examine the interplay between biology/genetics and environmental factors. It provides a contemporary approach by bringing to the table a new debate: the nurture vs. biosocial debate.

Barnes is an assistant professor in the Criminology Program at The University of Texas at Dallas.
