Summary
Cybercrime is a newly emerging discipline that analyzes the changing nature and scope of victimization through the use of the internet. This newly updated volume explores the interface of computer science, internet science, and criminology. It includes a foreword by David S. Wall, the leading cybercrime scholar in the UK. The text covers such topics as cyberbullying, terrorist use of the internet, gambling, fraud, money laundering, cyberstalking, online sex solicitation, music and IP pirating, and human rights issues. The book serves as a leading reference and also provides an initial textbook presentation of the research available in this area.
