Forensic Psychology: An Inside Perspective on Criminal Thinking and Behavior (Paperback)

Forensic Psychology: An Inside Perspective on Criminal Thinking and Behavior offers undergraduates a concise accessible introduction to the field of forensic psychology. With more than 20 years of experience as a forensic psychologist working with incarcerated people Dr. Kenneth B. Cairns provides a balance between not just forensics and psychology but also between theory and practical application. Grounded in the cognitive-behavioral approach and evidence based-practices and research this text will focus on often-overlooked areas such as the experiences of victims and first responders and the psychopathy of individuals convicted of mass murder spree killing and serial killing.
