Mike Mcconville, Dan Shepherd
"The McConville and Shepherd analysis is based on a rich body of
data collected between 1988 and 1990 in a number of neighborhoods
located in the jurisdictions of three police forces in England and
Wales. Within each research site, indepth interviews were conducted
with community beat officers, relief officers (who have more
traditional enforcement roles), and supervisors. In addition, the
authors systematically surveyed residents in NW [Neighborhood
Watch] and non-NW neighborhoods located within each
jurisdiction....Space limitations prevent my paying full justice to
the richness of this superb book, which I think should be mandatory
reading for anyone even slightly interested in crime
prevention."
-"American Journal of Sociology
