Product description
Review
"In this visually engaging book, the team behind Sydney's Designing Out Crime research centre shares 21 projects, from reducing theft in stores through a better shopping experience to ensuring that young revellers get home safely along bike routes. Changing perceptions and embracing human nature are common threads in the book's case studies - and its cup-half-full philosophy."
