Ronald V. Clarke has made a significant contribution to the field of Criminology, his rational choice models and situational crime prevention strategies offering a practical solution to today's crime problem. In this unique collection of essays, Tilley and Farrell bring together leading academics from around the word to honour his work.
'Unlike most festschrifts that are held together only by the binding of the book because the contributions represent the disparate intellectual interests of the contributors, this one has intellectual coherence. Its unity is provided by contributors who wish to pay tribute to Ronald Clarke by illustrating and extending his ground-breaking insight into preventing crime through situational crime prevention. It is a deserved tribute that he will cherish.'-Jackson Toby, Rutgers University, in Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books, March 2012
