Forensic Psychology by Graham M Davies

Forensic Psychology by Graham M Davies

Forensic Psychology is written for undergraduate students of psychology and covers all the main topics in the forensic field, from the committing of the crime, through arrests, the trial process and what happens after sentencing. It is both broad enough to give a comprehensive coverage, and detailed enough to do justice to each aspect.

His most recent book, edited with Mark Kebbell, is Practical Psychology for Forensic Investigations and Prosecutions (2006, John Wiley & Sons).
