This book offers an introduction to crime science; it is specifically for police and security professionals. Written by one of the founders of crime science and an expert in crime reduction, it considers the unique characteristics of the approach, its applicability to the control of crime, disorder and terrorism, and the importance of experimentation and the testing of new ideas to build a knowledge base for ethical
policing. Core content includes:
- The basics of crime science in concept, theory and practice;
- Methods of research and assessment used by crime scientists;
- Crime science and policing, including its application to volume crimes, serious crimes and investigation;
- Legitimacy and public compliance;
- Policing, science, and future crimes.
