About this book
This book provides an in-depth investigation of different psychological phenomena in forensic psychology through an analysis of key case studies in the field.
There is a growing requirement for a comprehensive resource that provides practical examples of how forensic psychology models are applied in real-life situations. Filling this lacuna, International Cases in Forensic Psychology takes the reader through a series of prominent case studies that illustrate the intricate details of criminal investigations, judicial proceedings, and correctional settings. Drawing on a diverse range of examples from the US, UK, Belgium, Russia, Columbia, Germany, and India which include serial murder, financial deception, and maternal psychosis, Dr. K. Jayasankara Reddy applies psychological theories and methods to understand the intricacies of criminal conduct. These theories range from criminal profiling and behavioral analysis, to the psychology of deceit and the dynamics of influence. Overall, the book will enhance the reader's ability to analyze the fundamental reasons behind criminal behaviour and develop more efficient approaches for rehabilitating offenders.
International Cases in Forensic Psychology will be of great interest to students and professionals of forensic psychology, neuropsychology, criminal justice, and related fields.
