This is an excellent critical text - just what is needed!
A well-written introduction to the realm of Forensic Psychology - I would recommend for A level students who have enjoyed their 'taste' of the topic in the second year and are considering specialising in this fascinating field after a psychology degree.
A very readable, and up to date, publication by Authors who are currently working in the field.
Terri Cole's contibution is particularly useful as it provides a contemporary picture of offender profiling in the UK (from someone who has actually 'been there and got the T shirt'), rather than a well worn Americanised, outdated narrative of the discipline.
This comprehensive volume captures the psychological aspect of criminality. It is an important study comprising of theory, research,policy and practice of the discipline and is a natural development for students of Criminology to develop their understanding of crime from the perspective of psychology.
Excellent reading to build an understanding of forensic psychology.
At last a textbook which engages and challenges students of varying abilities. A fabulous all rounder!
