This is a comprehensive overview of law and psychology for the beginning student. You will get a thorough understanding of the requirements and laws going forward as a forensic psychologist. Although it is a basic beginning book, it is also very extensive. There are useful case studies, numerous citations and complete discussions of the issues a forensic psychologist will encounter and need to know to be effective.

I took a course in forensic psychology and this book was used. There is good information in this book but it's poorly written. The editing is poor and the content is very confusing. Each chapter's content jumps around, making it difficult for the reader. Even the outlines that Sage provides do not agree with the material.

I am very disappointed in this book and have discussed the inconsistencies with my professor.

In this book, I found a complete and real vision of which place forensic psychology occupies nowadays. I recomend it.

Although I should say "fascinating, if you are interested in the basic theories and foundations of the subject of forensic psychology." I do understand that this is a textbook, and many people have a hard time reading texts; however, if you can get past that, this book is probably the best "intro to" book that I have ever read. I've used it in one class so far and will use it for at least three others.

The content of the book is great and it shipped to me just in time for class.

Everything is great. It arrived in time for my class and was in good condition.

Good book for those who wish for a good overview of the forensic psychology subfield. However, it can be dry at points especially toward those who are not interested in or familiar with psychology prior to reading.

Thank you so much for your fast and smooth transaction. I appreciate you always kept in touch to let me know the status of my order. Thank you again!

The book arrived earlier than promised! (Which was great of course!) It came exactly as described; brand new - no dents or marks whatsoever. In short, Excellent service! Thank you very much for the wonderful transaction!I highly recommend purchasing directly from amazon whenever possible.
