Download or read book The Crime Data Handbook written by Laura Huey and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crime research has grown substantially over the past decade, with a rise in evidence-informed approaches to criminal justice, statistics-driven decision-making and predictive analytics. The fuel that has driven this growth is data – and one of its most pressing challenges is the lack of research on the use and interpretation of data sources. This accessible, engaging book closes that gap for researchers, practitioners and students. International researchers and crime analysts discuss the strengths, perils and opportunities of the data sources and tools now available and their best use in informing sound public policy and criminal justice practice.
