Book excerpt: Here is a book about the practical design of communities and housing in which people can enjoy a good quality of life, free from crime and fear of crime. Recognising that crime, vandalism and anti-social behaviour are issues of high public concern, and that the driving forces behind crime are numerous, this book argues that good design can help tackle many of these issues. It shows how, through integrating simple crime prevention principles in the design process, it is possible, almost without notice, to make residential environments much safer. Written from the perspective of an architect and town planner, this book offers practical design guidelines through a set of accessible case studies drawn from the UK, USA, The Netherlands and Scandinavia. Each example illustrates how success comes when design solutions reflect local characteristics and where communities are truly sustainable; where residents feel they belong, and where crime is dealt with as part of the bigger picture of urban design.

Book excerpt: Design Against Crime will aid the design profession to meet the challenges presented by the competing needs and complex systems around crime and security. It proposes that designers should use their creative talents to develop innovative solutions to security problems that contribute to the ongoing fight against crime. The authors first explain the design against crime approach to security and security. They go on to provide practical advice on addressing crime and insecurity within the design process and offer practical examples of design being applied to security and safety. They also examine crime victimisation from a global perspective, highlighting the benefits worldwide of reducing opportunities for crime, including issues of national security, such as terrorism and natural disasters. A design-led, human-centred approach provides a way forward that is both aspirational and practical. The book is aimed primarily at design professionals, educators and students interested in safety and security, from all design disciplines, including product design, architecture, service design and communication design. The book should also be read by crime prevention experts, planners, local authorities, managers of urban environments and policymakers.

Book excerpt: This 2nd edition of Think Crime! builds on the success of the 1st edition as an essential practical guide for CPTED professionals. Like the 1st edition, it describes how to use theory and evidence in creating and justifying CPTED programs. It describes ready to use tools for gathering and analysing crime and fear of crime data to make CPTED specific to local contexts. Importantly, it describes the processes of conducting a formal Crime Risk Assessment on new and existing developments. It provides a deeper understanding of crime, crime risks, criminal opportunities and fear of crime. The book combines knowledge from CPTED, crime prevention policies, environmental criminology, urban planning, environmental psychology, public health and sustainable development. This 2nd edition includes new research, updated models and frameworks, and a new chapter on the dark side of CPTED. This latter highlights CPTED issues that can cause harm or result in negative outcomes. Together, these form an up to date comprehensive body of knowledge and practical skills and processes for CPTED professionals.
