 NEW BOOKS
Handbook of Internet Crime
Edited by Yvonne Jewkes (University of Leicester) and Majid Yar (University of Hull)

hbicAn essential reference for scholars and others whose work brings them into contact with managing, policing and regulating online behaviour, the Handbook of Internet Crime emerges at a time of rapid social and technological change.

'The virtual ubiquity of the Internet has transformed many aspects of global social and technological lives within an unprecedented short timespan. With it, it has brought a parallel realm of criminal and deviant behaviour requirinf multi-faceted governance and regulatory response. The Handbook of Internet Crime shines a welcome light on this plethora of issues, encompasses the wide range of key topics in this increasingly complex area of study and makes a major contribution to scholarship in the field.'
- Dr Stefan Fafinski, Brunel University

Why We Kill
Understanding violence across cultures and disciplines
Edited by Nancy Loucks (Families Outside), Sally Smith Holt (Belmont University) and Joanna R. Adler (Middlesex University)
Formerly published by Middlesex University Press

wwkInfanticide, serial killings, war, terrorism, abortion, honour killings, euthanasia, suicide bombings and genocide; all involve taking of life. Put most simply, all involve killing one or more other people. For such an evolved species, human beings can be violent far beyond the point of inhumanity. Why We Kill: Understanding violence across cultures and disciplines examines this violence in many of its manifestations, exploring how culture plays a role in people'a understanding of violent action.

From the first chapter, which tries to understand multiple forms of domestic homicide including infanticide, filicide, spousal homicide and honour killings, to the final chapter's bone-chilling account of the massacre at Murambi in Rwanda, this fascinating book makes compelling reading.

Reducing Terrorism Through Situational Crime Prevention
Edited by Joshua D. Freilich (The University at Albany, New York) and Graeme R. Newman (The University at Albany, New York)
Crime Prevention Studies Vol. 25 (Co-published with Criminal Justice Press)


rttThis volume applies the principles of situational crime prevention (SCP) to terrorism and it features cutting-edge theoretical and empirical pieces. Chapters focus on: terrorism by right-wing and left-wing extremists in the U.S., the conflicts in Iraq and Northern Ireland, foreign policy through an SCP lens, intelligence-led policing, the crimes of kidnapping and hostage taking, ideologically motivated tax refusal and cybercrime. Sources of original data include research projects such as the government-funded American Terrorism Study, and the U.S. Extremist Crime Study. Derek Cornish's "script method" is applied in a number of case studies, and Ronald Clarke and Graeme Newman's "EVIL DONE" concept is operationalized and refined. The authors represent a mix of leading SCP scholars and noted terrorism researchers.

Domestic Violence - Working With Men
Research, experience, practice and integrated responses
Edited by Andrew Day (University of South Australia), Donna Chung (University of Warwick), Donna Justo (Gold Coast Domestic Violence Prevention Centre) and Patrick O'Leary (University of Bath)

Published by Federation Press, distributed by Willan Publishing.

Surveys suggest that around one third of all adult women will at some point in their life experience abuse perpetrated by an intimate male partner. In recent years a number of 'integrated responses' to domestic violence have been developed which are coordinated, appropriate, consistent responses aimed at enhancing victim safety, reducing secondary victimisation and holding abusers accountable for their violence. An increasingly important part of integrated responses is the delivery of interventions for male perpetrators of violence. In this book contributions come from those working with victims of domestic violence, from within the criminal justice system and integrated response programs. They describe and discuss the provision of programs and services that are designed to reduce the risk of domestic violence amongst known perpetrators. Outcome data, theoretical and clinical issues relevant to program delivery are discussed in detail.

Domestic Violence - Working With Men provides a timely resource in the development of programs and services to reduce the risk of known perpetrators committing further acts of violence towards women.

Domestic Violence in Rural Australia
Sarah Wendt
Published by Federation Press, distributed by Willan Publishing.


This book paints a picture about domestic violence in rural Australia, drawing on research that has been conducted over the last 2 decades as well as the author's research in rural communities in South Australia.

It provides an analysis of how rural communities have been understood historically and examines social/cultural constructions of 'rural culture' overtime. Wendt draws heavily on women's and human service workers' stories about their experiences of domestic violence in rural contexts to argue the importance of recognising local culture when forming community responses to domestic violence.

The book is written for those involved in social care practice in rural communities, policy development, and tertiary students.
