‘This latest edition of Forensic Psychology: The Basics maintains the balance between depth, relevance and accessibility which made the previous editions so valuable for those commencing their journeys on a forensic psychology pathway. The updates to research on genetic factors and current correctional policies show a commitment to contemporary academic research and practice, while the strong focus on adverse childhood experiences reflects a growing awareness within the system of the role these play in criminal justice involvement. Particular highlights in the current edition are the discussions around vulnerability, agency and strengths-based approaches – all challenges which feature prominently in criminal justice practice.’ Dr Rachel Taylor, Senior Lecturer of Psychology at the University of South Wales, UK
