    • Psychology and Crime : Understanding and Tackling Offending Behaviour, Paperback by Pakes, Francis; Winstone, Jane, ISBN 1843922592, ISBN-13 9781843922599, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US

      From a UK perspective, Pakes and Winstone (both affiliated with the U. of Portsmouth) redress the skewed picture media present of crime and the effectiveness of prisons. They discuss causes of crime, offender profiles, theoretical models of aggression and change, research on the assessment and treatment of sex offenders, the link between mental illness/addiction and crime, and the psychology of imprisonment. They also debunk myths about crime victims, and make recommendations about safety and recidivism prevention. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
