Criminal and Investigative Psychology examines from a psychological perspective, the cycle of crime -- from criminal to crime to investigation to court to prison to rehabilitation. It explores the psychology of criminals and of the police and the legal process and asks what makes a criminal. Investigative psychology is assessed with regard to information, validating evidence, actions and inference -- including offender profiling. The role of the accused, the judge and the jury is covered, followed by a look at how psychologists work with prisoners. The book concludes with a discussion of crime reduction and the future of crime.
