This third edition of Forensic Psychology: The Basics continues to provide an accessible overview of the core topics and theories in this fascinating discipline.

The book provides an engaging discussion of core topics and theory in forensic psychology, alongside information about the role of a professional forensic psychologist. In addition to the established topics such as the psychology of crime and criminality, police psychology, victimology and correctional psychology, this edition has been fully updated to include coverage of:

  • The impact of labelling offenders
  • The effectiveness of new assessment
  • Rehabilitation programmes

Special topics such as terrorism, the effects of war on ex-service personnel and offender profiling have been updated, and further attention is paid to recent changes to legislation in the UK and other countries. The book also explores the importance of nature and nurture for people who commit offences, with a special focus on how this is relevant to the development of psychopathic tendencies.

This invaluable guide is essential reading for students across a range of disciplines, including psychology, criminology and law, as well as general readers seeking a concise and jargon-free introduction to forensic psychology.
