This is the first volume to cut through the confusions and misunderstandings surrounding this topic to report on detailed, original, scientific research that examines the variations in criminal behaviour from which any 'profile' must be derived. The studies included examine both early approaches to the field and the future problems and potential for an Investigative Psychology approach of offender profiling. This book will be of great value to all those who have been waiting for a scientific, psychological basis to police investigations. It will be read with interest by those who want to get behind the rhetoric and controversy that surrounds 'offender profiling' and require an up to date account of current research and recent discoveries.Offender profiling series ;v. 2.Criminal behavior, Prediction ofCriminal investigationPsychological aspectsCriminal psychologyCriminal behavior, Prediction of.Criminal investigationPsychological aspects.Criminal psychology.364.3Alison Laurence J738215Canter David V32412MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910953333603321Profiling in policy and practice4488255UNINA
