Book Series : Crime Prevention and Security Management
This book develops a general, comprehensive model for preventing crime: one that can be applied to prevent a wide range of crimes from domestic burglaries, criminal youth gangs and driving under the influence to organized crime and terrorism. This book assesses nine 'prevention mechanisms' and shows how they reduce future acts of crime.
