"This book will be a vital tool for forensic scientists and forensic psychologists... Essential." -CHOICE, "O'Donohue and Levensky have put together a readable and truly comprehensive work that covers forensic topics (legal and ethical) intersecting with psychology. The editors divide the discussion into logical sections that include basic issues, assessment issues, mental disorders, and special topics. Chapters treat such key issues as forensic reports, eyewitness testimony, juries, and polygraphs. Included among the many other important topics are nonverbal detection of deception, and elder and child abuse. The list of contributors is impressive, and all information is current. This book will be a vital tool for forensic scientists and forensic psychologists as well as an invaluable resource for anyone who must write reports or give courtroom testimony. Summing Up: Essential. All collections supporting the study of forensics at the upper-division undergraduate level and above." -CHOICE

Synopsis
Forensic psychology has mushroomed into a diverse and increasingly complex field that is equal parts law and psychology. Psychologists act as expert witnesses in legal cases - sometimes without knowing much about the laws involved, and legal professionals rely on the assessment of psychologists sometimes without knowing much about how such assessments are made. The purpose of this handbook is to provide professionals with current, practical, and empirically based information to guide their work in forensic settings, or to better their understanding of the issues and debates in forensic psychology. Divided into four sections, the Handbook of Forensic Psychology covers basic issues, assessment, mental disorders and forensic psychology, and special topics. The basic issue chapters present a primer on law for the psychologist, a primer on psychology for attorneys, an overview of ethical issues relevant to forensic psychology, and a chapter on forensic report writing. The assessment section discusses factors and measures relevant for assessing a variety of behaviors, propensities, and capabilities, including dangerousness, violence, suicide, competency, substance abuse, PTSD and neuropsychological evaluations, as well as discussing interviewing children and child custody evaluations. Additional chapters discuss eyewitness testimony, recovered memory, polygraphs, sexual harassment, juror selection, and issues of ethnicity in forensic psychology.

- v***v (2054)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
