Ebook: Guns and crime: the data don’t lie

This book will examine gun violence and crime in America. The emphasis in this text will be on the inadequacy of the data on firearm ownership. In addition, there will be a discussion of murder and other violent crimes in the United States and the limitations of that data as well. It will be the thesis of this book that this lack of satisfactory data on guns and crime has resulted in gun control research that is inferior in many ways to research on other public policy issues, such as traffic fatalities.
