The book will be of interest to students of law, sociology, and psychology; researchers in criminology; lawyers, sociologists, psychologists, theologians; representatives of law enforcement agencies, and the general public.

The book is the first monographic work that, through the lens of Orthodox Christian doctrine, explores core criminological topics, such as: Crime and Criminality, Criminal Personality, Determinants and Prevention of Crime and Criminality. The scientific value of the work resides in the fact that it, highlights the axiological aspects of Orthodox Christian teachings relevant to criminology, the potential for their integration into positive science, and compatibility between Church teachings and scientific approaches.

To maintain the highest degree of scientific value and to avoid subjectivity, the findings and conclusions developed in this work are corroborated not only by Orthodox Christian teachings and logical reasonings, but also by empirical studies and, were applicable, by cases from judicial practice.

The book effectively bridges theology and criminology, highlighting how Orthodox Christian moral values contribute to understanding crime and justice. By incorporating religious doctrines into criminological discourse, the book offers a fresh perspective on ethical and moral considerations in criminal law.

The book extensively discusses key Orthodox Christian concepts, such as sin, repentance, forgiveness, and divine justice. It aligns these concepts with criminological theories, demonstrating how religious morality influences legal traditions and criminal behavior perception.

The book provides valuable insights into how Orthodox Christian doctrine has historically influenced criminal laws and rehabilitation practices. It highlights the role of the Church in shaping ethical frameworks for justice, particularly in Christian-majority countries.

A significant contribution of the book is its discussion of restorative justice principles in Orthodox teachings. The emphasis on reconciliation, repentance, and societal reintegration of offenders aligns with modern criminological trends that advocate for rehabilitation over punitive measures.

The reader of the book will clearly acknowledge that the complex nature of crime and criminality still remains beyond the full grasp of science without integration of transcendental knowledge about facts and phenomena into the framework of Criminology.
