Book Full of Typos Recalled

The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that the Princeton University Press recalled all 4,000 error-riddled copies of Cop in the Hood: My Year Policing Baltimore’s Eastern District by Peter Moskos, an Assistant Professor of Law, Police Science, and Criminal Justice Administration at the City University of New York’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice.  More than 90 errors made it to print in the 245-page book.  Taking unprecedented steps to rectify the mistake, the Press will reprint the book.
