内容説明・目次
内容説明
While law and psychology are both concerned with analysing, understanding and predicting human behaviour, the relationship between these professional disciplines, particularly in court, is still controversial. This book, written by practitioners and academics from the UK, Europe and worldwide, including North America, highlights and emphasises both the extent to which psychologists are already assisting and informing the legal system, and the potential for collaboration between lawyers and psychologists outside the artificially adversarial glare of courtroom proceedings. The editors - one a psychologist specialising in legal applications of psychology, the other a lawyer with special interests in developing practical approaches to the prevention of legal problems - have ensured that each chapter is relevant to, and easily readable by, both professions. The Handbook of Psychology in Legal Contexts presents an authoritative commentary on key legal procedures and issues together with practical reviews of psychological concepts, research and practice that bear on these topics.
It will prove a valuable resource for those working in all fields where the law and behavioural sciences interact.
