In recent years, fire-raising has become an increasing problem in Britain and elsewhere, and now involves many professionals in the investigation and management of those who set fires. The motives of fire-raisers are complex and their behaviour is hard to change. Herschel Prins sets the problem in an historical and anthropological context, examines the size of the problem, its investigation and motivation, in a way which will enable more effective management.
Herschel Prins is a professor at the Midlands Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice, University of Loughborough, and Visiting Professor in Clinical Criminology, Nottingham Trent University.
