Conclusions IndexReviews`By calling his new book Advanced Introduction to Organised Crime, Leslie Holmes indicates right from the outset that he is setting a different course in examining what some might regard as an already much examined subject. Echoing the comic strip character Pogo, who memorably said, We Have Met the Enemy and He Is Us! the author points out, in this insightful and informative analysis, that each and every individual must play a role in resisting organized crime. Toward this end, Holmes concludes, everyone's political will matters. This is a profoundly important observation.' -- Jim Finckenauer, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, Newark, US 'By calling his new book Advanced Introduction to Organised Crime, Leslie Holmes indicates right from the outset that he is setting a different course in examining what some might regard as an already much examined subject.
