• Environmental criminology is a generic label that covers a range of overlapping perspectives. At the core, the various strands of environmental criminology are bound by a common focus on the role that the immediate environment plays in the performance of crime, & a conviction that careful analysis of these environmental influences are the key to effective investigation, control, & prevention of crime. Written by leading theorists & practitioners in the field, this text brings together for the first time the key contributions to environmental criminology that comprehensively define the field & synthesize the concepts & ideas surrounding environmental criminology. Each chapter will analyze one of the twelve major elements of environmental criminology & crime analysis. Adapted from the source document.
