Special topics such as terrorism, the effects of war on ex-service personnel and offender profiling have been updated, and further attention is paid to recent changes to legislation in the UK and other countries. The book also explores the importance of nature and nurture for people who commit offences, with a special focus on how this is relevant to the development of psychopathic tendencies.
