Explores how the explosion of neuroscience-based evidence in recent
years has led to a fundamental change in how forensic psychology
can inform working with criminal populations. This book
communicates knowledge and research findings in the neurobiological
field to those who work with offenders and those who design policy
for offender rehabilitation and criminal justice systems, so that
practice and policy can be neurobiologically informed, and research
can be enhanced. Starting with an introduction to the subject of
neuroscience and forensic settings, The Wiley Blackwell Handbook of
Forensic Neuroscience then offers in-depth and enlightening
coverage of the neurobiology of sex and sexual attraction,
aggressive behavior, and emotion regulation; the neurobiological
bases to risk factors for offending such as genetics,
developmental, alcohol and drugs, and mental disorders; and the
neurobiology of offending, including psychopathy, antisocial
personality disorders, and violent and sexual offending. The book
also covers rehabilitation techniques such as brain scanning,
brain-based therapy for adolescents, and compassion-focused
therapy. The book itself: Covers a wide array of neuroscience
research Chapters by renowned neuroscientists and criminal justice
experts Topics covered include the neurobiology of aggressive
behavior, the neuroscience of deception, genetic contributions to
psychopathy, and neuroimaging-guided treatment Offers conclusions
for practitioners and future directions for the field. The Handbook
of Forensic Neuroscience is a welcome book for all researchers,
practitioners, and postgraduate students involved with forensic
psychology, neuroscience, law, and criminology.
