Environmental Criminology

"""In Environmental Criminology, Martin Andresen provides perhaps the most readable summary of what is known in the field. But he also thoughtfully considers where the field has been and where it is going, providing one of the most sophisticated descriptions of Environmental Criminology to date. This means that this book will be equally useful to students and scholars, and should be read by anyone interested in this area of study."" David Weisburd, Walter E Meyer Professor of Law and Criminal Justice, Institute of Criminology, Faculty of Law, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel; Distinguished Professor, Department of Criminology, Law and Society, George Mason University, USA ""With new chapters on the journey to crime and the effects of crime prevention, this is an expanded update to a valuable reference on environmental criminology. Replete with examples from his Vancouver research, Andresen does not bombard the reader with dense academic prose, yet the book contains a precise of the latest literature and research in the area. It will be a valuable resource for students everywhere."" Jerry Ratcliffe, Professor of Criminal Justice, Temple University, Philadelphia, USA ""Environmental criminology is the most useful and exciting approach to understanding and doing something about crime. Martin Andresen has produced an exceptionally lucid and thorough text for this area."" John Eck, Professor of Criminal Justice, University of Cincinnati, USA"
