Forensic Psychology, Second Edition

Forensic Psychologytakes a broad-based perspective, incorporating both experimental and clinical topics. The second edition includes many new developments by theorists and researchers in the field.  In addition, a separate chapter on homicidal and psychopathic offenders expands on the first edition’s coverage of psychopathy by now including coverage of mass murder and serial murderers.  A chapter has also been added on domestic violence and sexual offence that includes a profile of the work of Canadian researcher Dr. Vernon Quinsey.  Students will find that the ideas, issues, and research in this text are presented in an attractive format and style that they will understand, enjoy, and find useful in their professional careers.
