Abstract:
This state-of-the-art book reviews the contribution of psychology to the explanation of criminal conduct and the treatment and rehabilitation of offenders. Although its primary aim is to describe the theoretical and empirical basis for clinical practice and research it also attempts to set psychological approaches in the context of criminology generally. The first half of the book covers basic concepts in criminal justice and the study of crime, and examines the nature of offending from sociological and psychiatric, as well as psychological, perspectives. Later chapters focus on major topics of particular concern to clinical practitioners. (John Wiley Sons)
