Review
“I have recommended this book to other forensic psychologists because it is easy to read, current, and captures all of the central controversies in the area. … Forensic Psychology provides a concise, accurate, and lucid account of current research trends in forensic psychology in Canada and abroad.”
--Brent Snook, Memorial University of Newfoundland
“This text is the most up-to-date, comprehensive, and empirically guided textbook that reviews issues pertaining to Psychology and the Law, and the only one to sufficiently accomplish this from Canadianized content.”
--Michael Woodworth, University of British Columbia Okanagan
“I would describe it [the text] as well written, current, lively, and scholarly. A terrific overview of the ways in which psychology and the criminal justice system interact in Canada.”
--Peter N.S. Hoaken, The University of Western Ontario
“The book is well written in an easy to read and understand[able] fashion with content that is interesting, piquing, and stimulating students’ interest in the field of forensic psychology."---Abe Worenklein, Professor, Dawson College and Sessional Lecturer, Concordia University
Product Description
Forensic Psychology, 3e is “the” Canadian source of stimulating and accessible course materials for Forensic Psychology courses from some of the biggest names in the discipline. It takes a broad-based perspective that incorporates both experimental and clinical topics and presents the important ideas, issues, and research in a way that everyone will understand and enjoy, and in some cases find useful in their careers. The text covers topics that might otherwise be discussed in traditional social and cognitive psychology courses–including eyewitness testimony, jury decision making, and police procedures–as well as topics that are clinical in nature and might otherwise be discussed in traditional personality or abnormal psychology courses–such as the meaning of being unfit to stand trial, mentally disordered offenders, and psychopathy.
Now available with a MyPsychKit access card for students to use the online Study Guide and interactive practice exercises.
