Crime analysis has become an increasingly important part of
policing and crime prevention, and thousands of specialist crime
analysts are now employed by police forces worldwide. This is the
first book to set out the principles and practice of crime
analysis, and is designed to be used both by crime analysts
themselves, by those responsible for the training of crime analysts
and teaching its principles, and those teaching this subject as
part of broader policing and criminal justice courses. The
particular focus of this book is on the adoption of a problem
solving approach, showing how crime analysis can be used and
developed to support a problem oriented policing approach - based
on the idea that the police should concentrate on identifying
patterns of crime and anticipating crimes rather than just reacting
to crimes once they have been committed. In his foreword to this
book, Nick Ross, presenter of BBC Crime Watch, argues passionately
that crime analysts are 'the new face of policing', and have a
crucial part to play in the increasingly sophisticated police
response to crime and its approach to crime prevention - 'You are
the brains, the expert, the specialist, the boffin.'
