It explores the intersection of psychology, criminology, and security, providing a comprehensive framework for integrating behavioural insights into security practices.

It explains complex psychological and criminological insights and provides straightforward explanations of psychological and criminological ideas that are critical to comprehending security issues. It advocates for paradigm shift in security practices and encourages a move from control-based to cooperative security paradigms.
