Recenzii
"The second edition of An Introduction to Criminal Psychology provides an excellent overview of the psychology of crime. The new chapters on property and white collar crime, and expanded treatment of prevention and treatment are valuable additions. Dr Durrant manages to balance deep scholarship and theoretical sophistication with clarity of writing, and his ability to link abstract ideas with practical examples from around the world is unique in my experience. Lecturers will find the new sections on crime and film and research in focus particularly helpful in their teaching. In my view, this is a first rate text and should be on the prescribed reading list for all undergraduate courses on crime and psychology."

"An Introduction to Criminal Psychology, 2nd edition, is an accessible and easy to read yet comprehensive introduction to criminal psychology. The book not only provides a thorough overview of psychological explanations for a wide range of offences, but it also offers an integrated account of how these approaches can be used to reduce and prevent crime. It is a ‘must have’ text for any undergraduate course with a focus on psychological explanations of criminal behaviour."
