"Pat O'Malley's method of risk, crime and criminal justice is stimulating and provocative. He points out that in criminology risk sometimes appears almost entirely in negative terms, in marked contrast to other social spheres, where risk is regarded a lot more positively, as for example running a business innovation and entrepreneurship. O'Malley says that risk-taking is an part of criminal behaviour which is generally overlooked by criminology, and directs his readers' care about Katz and towards the cultural criminologists who look at risk-taking like a source of excitement for offenders. O'Malley's highly original 'risky criminology' reconnects risk with criminological theory, and challenges those worried about punishment and crime prevention to develop constructive, imaginative measures and strategies concerned with the reducing harm due to criminal and anti-social risk-taking behaviour instead of wanting to control risk through repression and exclusion."

(Barbara Hudson )

"O’Malley, on this beautifully simple, insightful and erudite book, locates risk within a number of mentalities which may have been, and are being, deployed to “govern crime” -- in doing this he places risk, where it should be, at the very centre of criminological thought and practice. This is an important book."

(Clifford Shearing )
