Teised raamatud teemal:

Extends the ³actionable hot spot² methodology, first developed by RAND to identify likely areas for improvised explosive device emplacement, to other problem areas where policymakers are faced with spatial, temporal, and quantity constraints when deploying scarce resources.

Case studies describe its application to public health, countering piracy, and fighting neighborhood crime.
