Reviews

'...will be repeatedly consulted by crime prevention and community safety practitioners and by applied criminologists. It provides a uniquely detailed account of the national organizations involved in crime prevention. It will come to be the definitive record of the bizarrely shifting organizational face of crime prevention in the 1980s and 1990s, masking the consistent personal influence of a small number of influential policy-makers.' Ken Pease, University of Huddersfield, UK 'The most positive aspect of this book is the very detailed consideration of the Home Office and some of the other most influential bodies...provides a very sophisticated breakdown of key departments, committees and even individuals in crime prevention...some interesting insights.' LCCJ Newsletter '...a detailed and informative study which describes how policies aimed at crime prevention are actually made in England and Wales...interesting insights into the fashioning of English criminal justice policy...useful material.' The Law and Politics Book Review
