Cybercrime and Society
Autor Majid Yar, Kevin F. Steinmetzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 2019
The book has undergone extensive updates and expands on the topics addressed in the 2013 edition, with updated analysis and contemporary case studies on subjects such as: computer hacking, cyberterrorism, hate speech, internet pornography, child sex abuse, and policing the internet. New author Kevin Steinmetz brings further expertise to the book, including an in-depth insight into computer hacking.
The third edition also includes two new chapters:
- “Researching and Theorizing Cybercrime” explains how criminological theories have been applied to various cybercrime issues, and also highlights the challenges facing the academic study of cybercrime.
- “Looking toward the Future of Cybercrime” examines the implications for future cybercrimes, including biological implants, cloud-computing, state-sponsored hacking and propaganda, and the effects online regulation would have on civil liberties.
Suitable reading for undergraduates and postgraduates studying cybercrime and cybersecurity.

Recenzii
In an ever-shifting technological landscape, Yar and Steinmetz have successfully and comprehensively captured the nature and scope of cybercrime concerns in contemporary society. With engaging examples and case studies, and astute insights into the concerns and challenges faced in this space, this is a must-buy for scholars of cybercrime.
I am very pleased to see a new edition of Cybercrime and Society, and the addition of Kevin Steinmetz to the authorship. This book has been a staple across my research and teaching.
