Psychology of Crime and Delinquency

Criminology, as defined by Webster's dictionary, is described as ""the scientific study of crime as a social phenomenon, of criminals, and of penal treatment."" This definition underscores the multifaceted nature of criminology, highlighting its focus not only on the act of crime itself but also on the broader societal implications, the individuals who commit these acts, and the systems in place for their correction and rehabilitation. However, the scope of criminology extends beyond sociological confines, incorporating substantial contributions from the field of psychology. Psychological theories have played a pivotal role in transforming societal perceptions regarding crime and delinquency.T his book "Psychology of Crime and Delinquency" is particularly designed for professionals and scholars across a diverse range of disciplines including criminology, criminal justice, psychology, psychiatry, sociology, law, forensic sciences, genetics, public health, and other related fields. It offers a multidisciplinary approach that enriches the reader's understanding of criminal behavior and provides insights into the potential pathways for intervention and policy development. Through its comprehensive coverage, the book aspires to contribute significantly to the body of knowledge in the field and to support the work of those dedicated to understanding and mitigating the complexities of criminal behavior.
