Investigating Digital Crime Bryant, Robin P.

Numerous case studies are provided throughout, with examples from the UK, other European nations and the US illustrating both the theoretical perspectives offered and the associated investigative context. Opening with an introduction to the challenges of new technology crime and background to the phenomena, the book then moves on to discuss the legislative context, for example, the interception of email and its use as evidence in court. The latter half of the book examines a range of new technology crimes, from the illegal modification of games consoles and mobile phones, through to new forms of identity theft, card crime and the use of new technology by sex offenders.

• Offers a theoretical understanding and explanation of new technology crime and clearly describes and analyses the investigative and legislative context 
• Includes numerous global case studies throughout to illustrate the theory in practice and to appeal to an international audience
