The Routledge International Handbook of Psychopathy and Crime presents the state-of-the-art on the full landscape of research on antisocial behavior that employs psychopathy as a central correlate. It is the largest and most comprehensive work of its kind, and includes contributions from renowned scholars from around the world. Organized into five distinctive sections, this book covers the etiology of psychopathy; the measurement of psychopathy; the association between psychopathy and diverse forms of homicidal and sexual offending, including serial murder, sexual homicide, rape and child molestation; criminal careers and psychopathy; the role of psychopathy in criminal justice system supervision, including institutional misconduct, noncompliance, and recidivism. This book is an essential resource for students and researchers in criminology, psychology, and criminal justice and will be of interested to all those interested in criminal behavior, sexual and violent crime, forensic psychology and forensic mental health.

Download or read book Psychopathy as Unified Theory of Crime written by Matt DeLisi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies the psychopathy concept toward the understanding of crime. Drawing on hundreds of studies and his own clinical, research, and practitioner experience working with the most antisocial and violent offenders, the author demonstrates that psychopathy can explain all forms of crime across the life course, and also examines the biosocial foundations of the disorder. With an abundance of case studies and historical references, written in a distinctive writing style, the book is equally fascinating to the academic scholar and the true crime buff alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychopathy is a very important concept for those working in the field of criminal justice - investigators, prosecutors, and those who have to evaluate, manage and treat offenders. In Psychopathy: Theory, Research and Implications for Society, detailed, empirically based contributions by the world's leading researchers describe the relevance of the construct to practical and policy issues, examining its relevance to such topics as treatment, risk management and recidivism. The use of the concept in a range of populations is discussed, including juveniles, children, and the mentally disordered, as well as across cultures. The major strength of the volume is that the validity of the psychopathy construct is enhanced by the extensive empirical support: contributors explore topics including the genetic, biological, affective, interpersonal and information processing models that underpin the disorder. Audience: All those dealing with offenders - psychologists, psychiatrists, lawyers, judges, prison administrators and those who formulate policy in the criminal justice system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Psychopathy is an essential, accessible new guide on psychopathy and its development. Through the lens of the biopsychosocial model, Thomson explores a wide range of factors contributing to the development of psychopathy, from the genetic to the environmental, supported by the latest research into the disorder. Thomson examines psychopathy from all angles, analysing social, psychological and biological factors, in addition to the history and assessment of psychopathy, and links to violent crime. Theory and research are supported throughout with fascinating case studies. These case studies provide accessible and relevant examples for readers who are new to the field, and to those more familiar with psychopathy and its implications. Understanding Psychopathy is a brilliant resource for psychology students, researchers and practitioners in the criminal justice system alike, with grounding in forensic psychology, clinical psychology and criminology. The author is donating his royalties in full to Project EMPOWER, UK, a multidisciplinary initiative dedicated to enhancing prevention and intervention services to individuals and their families who experience intimate partner violence, sexual violence, domestic violence, or human trafficking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “ON NUMEROUS occasions I have been requested to write a review of my articles on persistent enuresis, juvenile delinquency, and psychopathic personality which were published over a period of 18 years. In response I have attempted here to synthesize the individual reports into an integrated whole. All of the work stemmed originally from a clinical interest spurred on by a clinical hunch that there was an intimate association between persistent enuresis and personality mal-integration. This same interest led finally, in the later papers, to the consideration of character problems. The conceptions elaborated here are simple. I believe that they have general validity and that their fundamental nature can lead to significant bio-psycho-social implications.”—Dr. Joseph J. Michaels Dr. Joseph J. Michaels has divided his 12 papers, published over an 18-year period, into four series: The first series (four papers) deals with studies of so-called normal children (controls) and neuropsychiatric patients, presenting data and their analysis primarily from a statistical standpoint. The second series (four papers) consists in the analysis and interpretation of data pertaining to enuresis in the reports of other authors on delinquent and psychotic individuals. The third series (two papers) is concerned with the relationship of enuresis, and of neurotic and anti-social traits to the electroencephalogram in children with behavior disorders. The fourth series (two papers) is much broader in scope: the previous data, hypotheses and conclusions are re-evaluated against a background of the total personality viewed psychobiologically and psychoanalytically.

Book excerpt: Scholars have focused upon youth in efforts to better understand psychopathy. While the term psychopath is an often-evoked term used to describe the worst among us; the serial killer, the sadist, the chronically violent criminal who preys upon the weak, the distance between the commonly used term and those who satisfy the criteria for the personality disorder is striking. Aggravating the understanding of psychopathy is the disagreement that exists in the scientific community concerning classification, identification and measurement -issues that are amplified when trying to apply the psychopath label to youth. This work is an effort to sort through the literature and to educate the reader with a burgeoning interested on the subject. It is a starting place to anchor the complexity of the issues toward further study and understanding. The orientation of this work, then, is one of simplicity aimed toward a broad audience. The reality that informs this work, and one that is essential to understand, is that while there is an avalanche of research on the topic of psychopathy, including developmental psychopathy, there are more questions than settled empirical findings. While it may appear that many issues are resolved, questions often remain insofar as there is disagreement over conceptual development and measurement of psychopathy -and juvenile psychopathy, in particular. These problems are not unique to psychopathy research, and such complexities are recognized in this writing. Chapters cover issues, such as the identification of psychopathy over time, the changing criteria, definition and measurement of juvenile psychopathy, variants or types of psychopaths, treatment strategies, legal issues and directions for future development. Some of the ideas that readers will become acquainted with are: --Whether there is a dark figure of psychopathy --Whether all psychopaths become violent criminals --Are there variants or types of psychopaths? --Can we improve upon the classification criteria for psychopathy? --Does treatment help psychopathy? --What are the legal consequences that attach to psychopaths By the end of the book, the reader should have a better grasp of the research and thoughts that inform the study of juvenile psychopathy. While the scholarly landscape is complex, this work breaks down the issues into broad, more easily understood ideas. The reader is also aided by understanding the debates in the literature that have characterized the psychopathy literature for some time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychopaths constitute less than 1% of the general population but over 20% of prison populations. They commit a disproportionate amount of crime and violence in society. Given that the economic burden of crime in the United States is estimated to be over $2.3 trillion per year, psychopaths likely constitute one of the most expensive mental health conditions known today. This volume chronicles the latest science of psychopathy and the various ways the condition intersects with the criminal justice system. From the modern techniques to assess the symptoms, to its utility in predicting violent recidivism, to the latest neuroscience youth and adults, and the most promising avenues for treatment, this volume captures the modern science of the condition and discusses ethical and legal issues surrounding psychopaths.
