Psychological Criminology delves into the intricate factors that influence individuals to engage in criminal behavior or become criminals. This comprehensive and extensively revised edition, incorporating the latest theories and research, offers a thorough exploration of psychological theories of crime and criminality. Organized in a chronological sequence, from distal to proximal causes of crime, the book is structured under three key headings: theories emphasizing factors present at birth (human nature, heredity), theories focusing on factors that shape the offender throughout their lifespan (learning and development), and theories examining factors at the crime scene.

The book emphasizes the interconnectedness of these approaches, showcasing how they collectively provide a more comprehensive understanding of crime and criminality. It serves as a valuable resource for students, academics, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of criminology and forensic psychology, offering valuable insights and perspectives.

By examining the psychological dimensions of criminal behavior, Psychological Criminology contributes to the broader realm of criminology, shedding light on the complex interplay between individual characteristics, environmental factors, and societal influences. It underscores the importance of integrating psychological knowledge into crime prevention, rehabilitation, and justice systems, ultimately striving to enhance our understanding and response to criminal behavior.
