Elements of Crime Patterns articulates tacit and implicit knowledge about what crime patterns consist of in the first detailed compendium of their specific elements and variables. This book contains a wealth of information illustrating what could be in a crime pattern. It details the offender and victim, location and time, weapons, tools, equipment, travel, communication, and methods used to commit crimes. The behaviors in twenty-seven crime categories are succinctly but specifically examined, from robbery, burglary, and cybercrime to sexual assault, terrorism, and drug trafficking. Novices to the subject gain foundational knowledge. Experienced police officers, investigators, and analysts find this a comprehensive reference tool. So much basic information in one place allows those who work in policing to formulate better questions when working in traditional ways and when interacting with artificial intelligence systems now and in the anticipated future. Criminal justice students, teachers, and researchers can learn the ins and outs of crime patterns from this book. It is a relevant reference tool for audiences who want insight into patterns of criminal activity. Elements of Crime Patterns is like an "anatomy book" of crimes and a type of diagnostic manual. To diagnose crime patterns more accurately, obtaining a thorough grasp of their possible parts and what these parts might look like makes sense. By recognizing crime patterns sooner, we increase the likelihood of preventing crimes, apprehending criminals, understanding problems, and developing more effective crime reduction tactics and policies. "This book is a breakthrough for the science of crime and prevention and for the criminological enterprise - both academic and practitioner. Osborne has made a contribution of considerable weight. This is a book you should read." - Gregory Saville
