Drawing on the medical model of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention, Mackey and Levan (criminal justice, Plymouth State U.) compile 20 chapters for criminal justice and sociology students and practitioners that address crime prevention efforts. After an introduction to theoretical foundations and research designs in the field, contributors from the US address prevention in the family and schools, guns, policing, open-air drug markets, terrorism, property crimes, juvenile offenders, sentencing, recidivism reduction programs, sex offenses, airport security x-rays, white-collar crime, and correctional programs, as well as technology, surveillance, and efforts to protect vulnerable populations. The final chapters offer comparative perspectives on the low crime rate in Singapore and Japan, and the application of game theory to the Iraqi conflict.
