Crime and Nature offers a distinctive way of thinking about why crime happens and how it spreads through modern society. Drawing on ideas from ecology, it treats crime as an “ecosystem,” showing how offences grow, adapt, and change depending on their surroundings.
The book introduces readers to patterns of criminal behaviour, how offenders use opportunities in everyday environments, and what happens when those opportunities are reduced. Instead of focusing only on offenders or punishment, it examines the wider settings in which crime flourishes and what can be done to alter those conditions.
Ideal for students and readers interested in criminology and criminal justice, Crime and Nature encourages critical thinking about prevention. It highlights practical ways to shrink the crime ecosystem and limit the variety of offences that occur in contemporary life.
Use this volume to gain a fresh, analytical framework for understanding crime and to consider how changes in places, routines, and social organization can help make communities safer.

This seller was incredible. I purchased an inexpensive (used) book and was almost immediately notified that it shipped on the same day I ordered it. I received it within 2 days. It was exactly as described - it looked like it had never even been read! Great service & a great product. Thanks!
