Organizing Against Crime: Redeveloping the Neighborhood
By Anthony Sorrentino
FROM THE INTRODUCTION: Chicago, home of some of the world's biggest criminals, has also been wheresome ofthe world's best criminologists have worked. But while the former, from Al Capone to the Blackstone Rangers, have been highly visible to the public, the criminologist's audience has been much smaller, more academic than public; this in spite of the enormous interest Americans have in crime and our belief, though often skeptical, that knowledge--or science, at any rate--is power, and necessary to an educated public in a democracy.
