Crimes and criminals of yesteryear are an absorbing way to attract readers to learning about history. Pirates seeking treasure, gunslingers of the Wild West, and clever criminal masterminds are the focus of this high-interest volume. Readers will love learning who was clapped in irons, thrown into dungeons, and sentenced to the gallows. Captivating artwork and photographs complement the accessible narrative, which transports young historians back in time.

This book positions script analysis as a useful and pragmatic tool, which can guide the selection and implementation of preventive measures in business environments. It illustrates how the concept aligns with the crime-specific orientation found in environmental criminology, and particularly explores the theoretical foundations of situational crime prevention, the approach to which it is deemed most relevant and supportive. The volume provides clear guidance on how to apply script analysis in daily practice, covering its main building blocks and key features. These are illustrated by a series of case studies into various crime types. Moving beyond the use of script analysis with the intent to disrupt the crime-commission process, the author further explores the wider benefits of the approach to both academics and practitioners. He identifies what is needed most if we want to embrace the full potential of script analysis for preventive purposes.
