Cybercrime Summary

Cybercrime by Peter Grabosky (Professor Emeritus, Professor Emeritus, Australian National University's College of Asia and the Pacific)

In this brief, accessible text, Peter Grabosky provides an introductory overview of cybercrime and the means for its control. He opens with a brief history of the topic and then discusses not only traditional topics-including fraud, hacking, offensive content, and piracy-but also neglected issues like state and state-sponsored cybercrime. About the Series Keynotes in Criminology and Criminal Justice provides essential knowledge on important contemporary matters of crime, law, and justice to a broad audience of readers. Each volume is written by a leading scholar in that area. Concise, accessible, and affordable, these texts are designed to serve either as primers around which courses can be built or as supplemental books for a variety of courses.

Cybercrime Reviews

Peter Grabosky's short book is ideal for an introductory course on cybercrime. It is comprehensive, well organized, up to date, and impeccably clear and accurate. I will certainly require it for my law school course. While he is an Australian scholar, the book has better coverage of U.S. developments than anything I have seen. * James B. Jacobs, NYU School of Law *
This is a useful and engaging introduction to the rapidly evolving field of cybercrime. It is strongly recommended as an introductory reader for undergraduate and even postgraduate classes in cybercrime/cybersecurity. The book is mercifully jargon free and would be highly accessible to non-specialists and specialists alike. * Roderic Broadhurst, Australian National University *
Cybercrime, from one of the masters of cyber-criminology, gives readers a comprehensive and thoughtful perspective on cybercrimes and their control as they have developed over time. It is highly commended for its comparative breadth and insights. * Michael Levi, Cardiff University *
