This book analyzes the consequences of violence and strategies for controlling them. Included are reviews of public perceptions and reactions to violence, estimates of the costs, the commonalities and complementarities of criminal justice and public health responses, efforts to reduce violence through the prediction and classification of violent offenders, and the relationships between trends in violence and prison population during a period of greatly increased use of incarceration.
