"The chapters collected in this book are revised versions of the papers presented at the ISPAC international Conference on Crime and Technology held in Courmayeur on November 2003. Some of them have been selected and published in the European Journal on Crime and Criminal Policy of Kluwer. This book...aims to develop a better knowledge of the impact of technology on crime, either looking at how criminals change their modus operandi, or how legislation, law enforcement and research could help in developing better laws, qualified investigations, and more applied research."--P. xi.
