Product Description

Product Description

Psychology and Crime supplies a timely and much-needed general text covering the range of contributions psychology has made both to understanding crime and responding to it.


From the Back Cover

Psychological theory and method have played a major part in shaping our understanding and interpretation of crime. Psychology and Crime supplies a timely and much-needed general text covering the range of contributions psychology has made both to understanding crime and responding to it. The book provides an accessible overview of theory and research from criminology, sociology, and psychology, focusing on three distinct themes. First, psychological theories about the offender are discussed, including the way in which mental disorder is defined. Second, the author analyses society's response to crime - the role of police and the courts. Finally, the book looks at crime prevention - both the rehabilitation of offenders and situational strategies for preventing crime.

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, 24 Nov 2008
By Dark Star (England) - See all my reviews
I think the first thing people should be aware of, is that this is not a text book you should study from. The text is incredibly dense with statitics, research and findings.

This book is an amazing reference tool and directory of reference. Studies and surveys complied so that you can quote them to support your argument and opinion.

Perhaps the first book you should buy when studying Forensic Psychology.
