How does the mind of a criminal work?
How can you stop criminals from re-offending?
What does being in prison do to your mind?

Covering prisons and prisoners, police methods, how evidence is gathered, and the reliability of witnesses, this book provides an authoritative introduction to the fascinating research and theory underpinning modern criminal psychology.
