Summary
This introduction to the second edition of the Cambridge Handbook of Forensic Psychology discusses phases of development in the field and distinguishes between this and practice as an accredited forensic psychologist. The status of Forensic Psychology as an autonomous discipline is evaluated and found to be a 'rendezvous' subject, meaning it stands at the crossroads between psychology, criminology and law. Definitions of forensic psychology remain 'fuzzy', and this volume adopts a broad usage in that it is taken to cover a wide range of psychological theories and methods and applied to problems, processes and personnel across the spectrum of criminal and civil justice systems. Analysis is presented of recent topics covered in the key journals, and it is noted that there is a dearth of coverage of diversity issues and research addressing victims needs which gaps the Handbook’s chapters attempt to address.
