Problem-Oriented Policing and Crime Prevention

by Anthony A. Braga

Instead of merely reacting to crimes once they ve been committed, can police agencies learn how to prevent offenses from occurring? Anthony Braga s comprehensive analysis demonstrates clearly how the emerging problem-oriented policing approach is proving effective in preventing a wide range of criminal activities. Problem-Oriented Policing and Crime Prevention is the only book recommended by the nonprofit Center for Problem-Oriented Policing for use in all modules of its Model POP Curriculum, including courses at colleges and universities and training programs for police personnel.

Explains things in a way that’s easy to comprehend, the text is structured in a pleasing way. I didn't finish this as I only found the first 2 chapters online.
