Forensic Case Histories: Understanding Serious Offending Behaviour
in Men examines men's violent and sexual offending behaviours,
outlined through a series of real offender narratives, from a
psychological perspective and in an accessible manner that will
engage any audience, from the criminology-intrigued layperson to
the specialist in the field. This unique and conversational text
thinks psychologically about serious crime, offering a compilation
of men's narratives that explore their life experiences and the
ways in which these experiences influence their behaviour in
adulthood. Each chapter addresses a particular theme, covering
frequently asked questions in the field such as, 'How can an
apparently motiveless offence have meaning?' and 'Is psychopathy a
personality disorder, and why do we struggle to treat individuals
with such traits?' The narratives of individuals who offend are
central to the discussion, but the chapters each draw on the
relevant facts from the research literature and highlight key
learning points. Many chapters also feature 'Further Reading'
sections to expand readers' knowledge. Both educational and
accessible, Forensic Case Histories will appeal not only to
specialists but to any layperson curious to understand more about
criminal acts. It is especially valuable to students and
instructors of criminal justice, mental health, and related fields.
