内容説明
While students most often associate forensic psychology with criminal profiling, crime scene investigations, and serial murder, the Second Edition of "Introduction to Forensic Psychology" covers the many others areas where psychology has played a significant role in providing research knowledge to the civil and criminal justice systems. Practical applications and case law are discussed along with a summary of contemporary research and practice across a broad spectrum of topics.This book contains more contemporary developmental and biological material in criminal behaviour sections. It includes more information on the relationship between mental disorders and crime and violence; and more examples throughout the text, with a case at the beginning of each chapter. It now covers topics such as: the death penalty, restorative justice, civil forensic issues, arson and typologies of juvenile firesetters, and eyewitness identification and discrimination. It includes new learning objectives at beginning of each chapter, review questions at the ends of each chapter, a list of key concepts defined, chapter summaries, boxes.
It is more visually appealing with 2-colour page design: improved design of figures and tables.
