'David Weisburd has been at the forefront of a revolution in the way we understand crime. This book written with colleagues is an elegant and persuasive account of the importance of understanding hot spots of crime. When it comes to crime, we have been focused on people. It is time, they argue, that we also focus on place.' Malcolm Gladwell, author of Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering
