This practical handbook utilises criminological research to produce comprehensive Designing Out Crime solutions for practitioners. It covers a large spectrum of Designing Out Crime applications courtesy of concise and easily understood short chapters. The handbook includes a Good Practice section with examples of where (and why) success has been achieved. It speaks to crime prevention practitioners, managers, and academics in the field of criminology (especially environmental criminology). It also provides solutions to those who seek to deliver sustainable, long-term benefits at the coalface of preventing crime, fear of crime and anti-social behaviour within the built environment.
