The second edition of this popular international handbook
highlights the developing relationship between psychology and the
law. Consisting of all-new material and drawing on the work of
practitioners and academics from the UK, Europe, North America and
elsewhere, this volume looks not only at the more traditional
elements of psychology and the law - the provision of psychological
assessments about individuals to the courts - but also many of the
recent developments, such as the interaction between psychologists
and other professionals, decision-making by judges and juries, and
the shaping of social policy and political debate.
Contemporary and authoritative in its scope, the second edition of
The Handbook of Psychology in Legal Contexts will again prove to be
a valuable resource for scholars and students, as well as being a
vital tool for all professionals working in the field.
* Well known editors and an international list of authors, most of
whom are leaders in their field
* Focus on psychological concepts and knowledge that will enlighten
best practice and research
* The focus on process and issues ensures that the book is not
limited in interest by specific legal codes or legislation, it is
international
* More than an updating of the old chapters, really a rethinking of
the field and what is now important and emerging
