This handbook, intended as a crime science manifesto, showcases the scope of the crime science field and provides the reader with an understanding of the assumptions, aspirations and methods of crime science, as well as the variety of topics that fall within its purview. Crime science provides a distinctive approach to understanding and dealing with crime: one that is outcome-oriented, evidence-based and that crosses boundaries between disciplines. The central mission of crime science is to find new ways to cut crime and increase security.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeginning by setting out the case for crime science, the editors examine the roots of crime science in environmental criminology and describe its key features. The book is then divided into two sections. The first section comprises chapters by disciplinary specialists about the contributions their sciences can make or have already made to crime science. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 12 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0 license. https: \/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/tandfbis\/rt-files\/docs\/Open+Access+Chapters\/9780415826266_oachapter12.pdf\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Wortley\u003c\/strong\u003e is Director of the Jill Dando Institute and Head of the Department of Security and Crime Science at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAiden Sidebottom is Associate Professor at the Jill Dando Institute of Security and Crime Science at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNick Tilley is Principal Research Associate and Professor at the Jill Dando Institute of Security and Crime Science at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGloria Laycock is Jill Dando Professor of Crime Science at the Jill Dando Institute of Security and Crime Science at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 494\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.69 x 7.44 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 30, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751072792864,"sku":"9780367580414","price":106.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/5fa215c3f1d5ad424a8b02955f9b915d.webp?v=1779963706","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/routledge-handbook-of-crime-science-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
