Criminal Psychology and Forensic Technology: A Collaborative Approach to Effective Profiling

Rating:
Summary: Not at the price
Review: This book is NOT for the lay reader. You must have a grounding in statistical analysis to appreciate the research articles. Nonstatistical articles include a nice one on forensic archaelogy, three on ethics and two on cybercrime that essentially say there is a hacker subculture out there. The book has only one article with Godwin's four way classification scheme. A person who wants to learn that would be better off buying his other book (which I have not read). This book is a textbook and I've had much better textbooks. FYI Although I have taken many of the Justice and Paralegal courses at the University of Alaska, Anchorage, I have no background in law enforcement whatsoever.
