Recenzii

“This is a substantial publication at almost 400 pages, and has been nicely produced by the publisher. … The book also provided some exciting illustrations of how the various techniques might further the cause of crime prevention. The task now is to implement and evaluate more of these potentially fruitful approaches and to contribute to what we know might work, where and how.” (Gloria Laycock, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books, clcjbooks.rutgers.edu, July, 2017)
