This is a practical overview on burglary, theft, and the perpetrators of these most common crimes. The scope of the text is broad; the author covers everything from the offenders to the victims, from selection of partners to psychology of the criminal, from safecracking to computer theft, from organized automobile thievery to shoplifting, from false burglary reports to criminal interrogation, from prevention to investigation, from arrest to punishment. The psychiatric evaluations of over one hundred offenders that form the core of this study are augmented by more informal interviews with criminals, fences and victims; on-the-street experience with burglary detectives; and the contributions of experts in the areas of evidence and investigation. Police detectives and other law enforcement officers will particularly appreciate this book, but it will also be useful to private investigators, attorneys, psychologists, psychiatrists, probation and parole officers, criminologists, and related professionals.
