Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con la Colección "Match Point" que, el Dr. Bernat-N. Tiffon (Psicólogo Forense --privado-- y Profesor Universitario de "Psicología Criminal y Forense") inicia novedosamente, es la rúbrica de una nueva línea de repertorio de obras que abordan casuísticas de la especialidad y que pueden suponer una dificultad de intervención pericial por las que pueden suscitar dudas en las decisiones judiciales. El autor ahonda sobre aquellas singulares casuísticas en que la Psicología Criminal y Forense ha de pronunciarse sobre situaciones en las que la fina y delgada línea tenue que separa dicotómicamente de una decisión judicial a la otra (por parte de Su Señoría) es muy corta o sutil; de aquí la expresión extraída del mundo deportivo: "Match Point", es decir, por qué lado cae la pelota al rebotar sobre la red en milésimas de segundo. En esta ocasión, y dada la larga trayectoria del autor en publicaciones que versan sobre la Psicología Criminal y Forense aplicado en el ámbito Penal, el Dr. Tiffon abre esta nueva línea sugiriendo un nuevo estilo de redacción --breve y concisa--, en la ya acreditada creatividad de las obras del investigador. Desde el riguroso academicismo universitario, el autor combina la base teórica (actualizada con el renovado Manual DSM5-TR publicado en 2022) y la práctica profesional, con la exposición de la fenomenología clínico-sintomatológica de 13 casos de estudios idiográfico-forenses (individualizados) de patología neurocognitiva y/o neuropsicológica y que dieron motivo para la apertura de procedimientos jurídico-legales que versaban sobre impugnaciones testamentarias. La obra cuenta con la participación de académicos (Dr. Miquel Angel Petit) y profesionales de reconocido prestigio (D. Ramón Ángel Casanova y Dña. Carmen Pérez-Pozo) que, por su amplia y larga trayectoria destacada, han conseguido especializarse en dicho ámbito de las herencias, de las impugnaciones testamentarias o mediación patrimonial.

This book was released on 2023-10-23 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con este 2º volumen, se prosigue la Colección “Match Point” que, el Dr. Bernat-N. Tiffon inició novedosamente con el Vol. I que versa sobre las Impugnaciones Testamentarias (recientemente publicado). En esta ocasión, la atención se focaliza en la singularidad psicológica-forense de las Discapacidades Intelectuales (DI); siendo especialmente las que presentan unos niveles intelectuales próximos a la inteligencia (psicométrica) normal. En el ámbito de la Psicología Forense, en el ámbito Penal sea para la figura del victimario como de la figura de la víctima, la evaluación psicométrica de las DI de tipo fronterizo (leve, moderado o fronterizo-borderline) y de su afectación en sus capacidades cognitivas y volitivas, son muy a menudo motivo de amplio debate clínico y jurídico en las Salas de Justicia (por ejemplo, en delitos contra la libertad sexual o en delitos de estafas). Desde el punto de vista psicológico-forense, si las DI de tipo grave y profundo pueden no suscitar cuestionamiento alguno con relación a las capacidades intelectuales, cognitivas, volitivas y/o psicoemocionales (dada su fenomenología clínica); por el contrario, las DI de tipo moderado, leve o fronterizo pueden motivar el “Match Point”; es decir: al salir de la Sala al finalizar la vista oral, tanto Letrados como Peritos no pueden asegurar por qué lado cae la pelota (o la decisión judicial) al rebotar sobre la red en milésimas de segundo. Y más posiblemente y de modo principal, en aquellas casuísticas en las que se compatibilice la aplicación del Artículo 183 bis del Código Penal por parte de los Operadores Jurídicos. De modo que el autor ahonda sobre aquellas singulares casuísticas en que la Psicología Criminal y Forense ha de pronunciarse sobre situaciones en las que la fina y delgada línea tenue que separa dicotómicamente de una decisión judicial de la otra (por parte de Su Señoría) puede ser corta o sutil; de aquí la expresión lingüística extraída del mundo deportivo (“Match Point”). Y, máxime cuando, estadísticamente, la epidemiología o la frecuencia de este tipo de fenomenología clínica de las DI en el ámbito clínico-forense suele ser medio-baja, y siendo incluso (posiblemente) también ajustado a dicha frecuencia en la experiencia o diligencia de los Operadores Jurídicos. Desde el riguroso academicismo universitario, el autor combina la base teórica de las distintas DI existentes y la práctica profesional forense, con la exposición de la fenomenología clínico-sintomatológica de 10 casos idiográficos psicológico-forenses y 7 sentencias. En esta ocasión, y dada la larga trayectoria del autor en publicaciones que versan sobre la Psicología Criminal y Forense aplicado en el ámbito Penal, el Dr. Tiffon abre esta nueva línea sugiriendo un nuevo estilo de redacción —breve y concisa—, en la ya acreditada creatividad de las obras del investigador. La obra cuenta con la participación de profesionales de reconocido prestigio (el Médico Psiquiatra, Dr. Josep Solé Puig; el Profesor de Derecho Penitenciario y Criminología, D. Pau González y el Médico Forense y Director del Instituto de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses de La Rioja, Dr. Jorge González Fernández) que, por sus amplias, largas y destacadas trayectorias, han intervenido en asuntos jurídico-forenses con población con DI.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Enthralling and terrifying. The Dark Side of the Mind is a chilling glimpse into a world of miscreants, monsters and the misunderstood.' Professor Dame Sue Black, author of the Sunday Times bestseller All That Remains 'A stunning, insightful, provocative piece of work. Wonderfully written and full of honesty. A powerful excavation of the world of a forensic psychologist.' Barbara Machin, creator and writer of Waking The Dead 'Kerry Daynes delves into the minds of psychopaths in a fascinating memoir.' Katya Edwards, Daily Mail 'Daynes offers fascinating insights into what makes criminals tick and how they might be more effectively treated. Her book is funny, wise and thoroughly gripping.' Jake Kerridge, writer and critic 'Grimly fascinating - a timely and gripping exploration of mental health issues in the criminal justice system from an author intimately acquainted with its dark heart.' Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange 'Kerry Daynes writes with knowledgeable insight on a side of people - and the criminal system that purports to treat them - that many would prefer to leave alone. The humour and psychological skills that have enabled her survival shine through.' Jessica Fellowes, author of The Mitford Murders Welcome to the world of the forensic psychologist, where the people you meet are wildly unpredictable and often frightening. The job: to delve into the psyche of convicted men and women to try to understand what lies behind their often brutal actions. Follow in the footsteps of Kerry Daynes, one of the most sought-after forensic psychologists in the business and consultant on major police investigations. Kerry's job has taken her to the cells of maximum-security prisons, police interview rooms, the wards of secure hospitals and the witness box of the court room. Her work has helped solve a cold case, convict the guilty and prevent a vicious attack. Spending every moment of your life staring into the darker side of life comes with a price. Kerry's frank memoir gives an unforgettable insight into the personal and professional dangers in store for a female psychologist working with some of the most disturbing men and women. If you enjoyed Unnatural Causes, When the Dogs Don't Bark and Prison Doctor you'll love Kerry's gripping account of her experience as a forensic psychologist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now updated with new material that brings the killer's picture into clearer focus. In the fall of 1888, all of London was held in the grip of unspeakable terror. An elusive madman calling himself Jack the Ripper was brutally butchering women in the slums of London’s East End. Police seemed powerless to stop the killer, who delighted in taunting them and whose crimes were clearly escalating in violence from victim to victim. And then the Ripper’s violent spree seemingly ended as abruptly as it had begun. He had struck out of nowhere and then vanished from the scene. Decades passed, then fifty years, then a hundred, and the Ripper’s bloody sexual crimes became anemic and impotent fodder for puzzles, mystery weekends, crime conventions, and so-called “Ripper Walks” that end with pints of ale in the pubs of Whitechapel. But to number-one New York Times bestselling novelist Patricia Cornwell, the Ripper murders are not cute little mysteries to be transformed into parlor games or movies but rather a series of terrible crimes that no one should get away with, even after death. Now Cornwell applies her trademark skills for meticulous research and scientific expertise to dig deeper into the Ripper case than any detective before her—and reveal the true identity of this fabled Victorian killer. In Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper, Case Closed, Cornwell combines the rigorous discipline of twenty-first century police investigation with forensic techniques undreamed of during the late Victorian era to solve one of the most infamous and difficult serial murder cases in history. Drawing on unparalleled access to original Ripper evidence, documents, and records, as well as archival, academic, and law-enforcement resources, FBI profilers, and top forensic scientists, Cornwell reveals that Jack the Ripper was none other than a respected painter of his day, an artist now collected by some of the world’s finest museums: Walter Richard Sickert. It has been said of Cornwell that no one depicts the human capability for evil better than she. Adding layer after layer of circumstantial evidence to the physical evidence discovered by modern forensic science and expert minds, Cornwell shows that Sickert, who died peacefully in his bed in 1942, at the age of 81, was not only one of Great Britain’s greatest painters but also a serial killer, a damaged diabolical man driven by megalomania and hate. She exposes Sickert as the author of the infamous Ripper letters that were written to the Metropolitan Police and the press. Her detailed analysis of his paintings shows that his art continually depicted his horrific mutilation of his victims, and her examination of this man’s birth defects, the consequent genital surgical interventions, and their effects on his upbringing present a casebook example of how a psychopathic killer is created. New information and startling revelations detailed in Portrait of a Killer include: - How a year-long battery of more than 100 DNA tests—on samples drawn by Cornwell’s forensics team in September 2001 from original Ripper letters and Sickert documents—yielded the first shadows of the 75- to 114 year-old genetic evid...

Book excerpt: "Since the Mexican government escalated its war on organized crime at the end of 2006, over 150,000 Mexicans have been intentionally murdered. Countless thousands of others have been tortured; no one knows how many have disappeared. Caught between government forces and organized crime cartels, the Mexican people have suffered as atrocities and impunity reign. Based on three years of research, over 100 interviews, and previously unreleased government documents, this report finds a reasonable basis to believe that government forces and members of criminal cartels have perpetrated crimes against humanity in Mexico. The report comprehensively examines why there has been so little justice for atrocity crimes, and finds the main answers in political obstruction. Given the lack of political will to end impunity, new approaches must be taken. The report argues for a series of institutional changes, most importantly the creation of an internationalized investigative body, based inside Mexico, with powers to independently investigate and prosecute atrocity crimes."--Page 4 of cover.

This book was released on 2011-08-24 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book supplies both empirical evidence and scholarly analysis that exemplify successful innovation in South America in the field of sustainability education. Examining the issues from a three-fold perspective, of national policy, regional planning and grassroots projects in schools and communities, the volume offers a comprehensive overview of the contemporary situation in Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Argentina and Venezuela. It provides case studies as detailed illustrations of the recipe for success as well as to inform researchers and practitioners of the kinds of obstacles and challenges they might face in seeking to manifest sustainability. A good deal of the research and scholarly studies in the field of education for sustainability and sustainable development is underpinned by ‘Western’ norms and culture. This book draws on that literature, yet also teases out features in the case studies that are particular to the region. South America itself encompasses a rich variety of natural and cultural environments—within individual nations as much as continent-wide. This diversity is a recurring theme in the book. The volume’s three sections provide first a general survey, enriched with material from studies conducted in a number of different polities. The second section covers developments in Brazil, South America’s largest nation and one that exhibits many of the features of education for sustainability found across the continent. Part three sets out and explores future trends. As with other books in the Schooling for Sustainable Development series, this volume will add impetus to scholarly exchange as well as contributing insights on education policy and curriculum changes across South American communities that exist in an increasingly globalized world.

Book excerpt: We've been told for years that the capitalist free market is a self-correcting perpetual growth machine in which sellers always find buyers, precluding any major crisis in the system. Then the credit crunch of August 2007 turned into the great crash of September–October 2008, leading one apologist for the system, Willem Buiter, to write of "the end of capitalism as we knew it." As the crisis unfolded, the world witnessed the way in which the runaway speculation of the "shadow" banking system wreaked havoc on world markets, leaving real human devastation in its wake. Faced with the financial crisis, some economic commentators began to talk of "zombie banks"–financial institutions that were in an "undead state" and incapable of fulfilling any positive function but a threat to everything else. What they do not realize is that twenty-first century capitalism as a whole is a zombie system, seemingly dead when it comes to achieving human goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this Research Topic is on research that aims to understand the relationships between pre-migration stressors and potentially traumatic experiences, post-migration living difficulties, and mental health in refugees of both sexes throughout the lifespan. We know very little about how concepts of assessing and treating mental health conditions actually work when applied to traumatized refugee populations from different cultures (e.g., the Yazidis people from northern Iraq). Moreover, there is also a great need to better understand the relationship between mental health and refugees’ integration in their host countries’ societies (acquiring language skills, fitness for work, economic independence, private life, etc.). This Research Topic will also focus on the issue of culture—the extent to which concepts of mental health care can translate and be implemented in different social, economic, and cultural settings around the world.
