Forensic Psychology PDF

I am an attorney for a psychiatric hospital and purchased this text, which was the primary required textbook in a graduate level Psychology and Law class that I took last Fall. The book served its purpose as a very general, basic introduction to the field, but if you are looking for a reference text, as I had hoped this would be, this book will likely fail to meet your needs. I found the bibliographic references to primary sources in the literature to be the best part of the book; without that, I probably would have given the text one (1) star.

I rented this textbook for my kindle at a great price compared to buying. However, there were several boxes that were completely greyed out and had the message that the content was copyrighted and could not be viewed. I called Amazon customer service to resolve this but they were unable to fix it. They did refund my rental fee, but I do not recommend viewing this on your kindle.
