‘And I thought I’d never see it: a TV presenter developing a deep and thoughtful interest in his subject. Diving beneath the surface where cameras and Autocue cannot follow, Nick Ross explores a theory of crime so simple and universal – and in its way obvious – that it’s almost shocking. He has turned my assumptions upside down.’ \u2013 Matthew Parris.<\/p>\n

\u2018A fascinating and beautifully written corrective to the many myths and false legends surrounding the issues of crime and punishment, from fraud to paedophilia. Nick Ross\u2019s book is an evidence-rich zone which our policy-makers – and we the citizens – would do well to spend some time in.\u2019 \u2013 David Aaronovitch<\/p>\n

\u2018Hold on to your hats: Nick Ross’s book on crime is actually not bad.\u2019 \u2013 Alan White, Spectator<\/i>\u00a0 <\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018Brilliant. Incisive and full of insight, cutting through so much of the nonsense that is talked about crime. A voice of sanity amongst the politicking and posturing that comes with tackling crime.\u2019 \u2013 Fiona Bruce<\/p>\n
