Criminal psychology, and its relationship to the practice of law,
has become a topic of major significance over the last three
decades. Psychologists play a key role in modern criminal
investigation and are central to crime reduction measures such as
offender profiling, delinquency prevention and tackling fear of
crime. Contributors from North America, Europe and Australia
examine this link, both adding to and drawing upon the pool of
recent theory construction and empirical work in the following
areas: * causes and prevention of offending * studies of crime and
offenders * the victim's perspective * witnesses and testimony *
studies of legal processes. These issues are studied from a 'local'
perspective that recognises not only the need for cross-national
comparative research, but also the generation of a corpus of
scientific knowledge more representative of the complexity of
criminal and legal investigation today.
