Psychosocial Criminology sheds new light on explanations of crime. It demonstrates how a psychosocial approach can illuminate the causes of particular crimes, challenging readers to re-think the similarities and differences between themselves and those involved in crime. The book critiques existing psychological and sociological concepts before outlining a more adequate understanding of the criminal offender. It sheds new light on a series of crimes - rape, serial murder, racist violence, 'jack-rolling' (mugging of drunks), domestic violence - and contemporary criminological issues such as fear of crime, cognitive-behavioural interventions and restorative justice.
