Clinical forensic psychology is a field that integrates clinical psychology with forensic psychology to apply psychological assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and consultation in legal contexts. This term signifies the fusion of clinical psychology as a practical professional discipline and forensic psychology as an experimental discipline.

Author Margo C.Watt, a clinical forensic psychologist, delves into the intricate details of each case, examining biological, psychological, social, cultural, and legal factors. The book adopts an evidence-based approach, highlighting how clinical forensic psychology informs various aspects of criminal cases, such as police investigative techniques, eyewitness testimony, pretrial publicity, jury selection and decision-making, forensic evaluations, psychological autopsies, mental health in corrections, and more.

By questioning how and why these events occurred, Cases in Clinical Forensic Psychology seeks to shed light on valuable lessons that can be learned from them. This insightful text offers valuable insights into the complex world of clinical forensic psychology and its crucial role in the legal system.
