| Abstract
|
:
|
This Canadian text examines the intersection of criminal behaviour, the theory behind it, and the application of evidence-based practice to its study. It explores the Canadian criminal justice system, Canadian research and Canadian crime. Criminal Behaviour and Psychology is very accessible to students, and has a focus on empirical research to support key theories and practice. Contemporary themes are also highlighted to give this book a truly Canadian perspective.
