Psychology of Criminal Behaviour

Crime is a complex phenomenon that cannot be understood solely through law, morality, or statistics. Behind every criminal act lies a psychological structure, a developmental context, and a set of mental and emotional processes that influence decisions, impulses, perceptions, and behavioural patterns. To understand crime, therefore, requires an understanding of the human mind under extreme conditions this is precisely the purpose of this work. Psychology of Criminal Behaviour: A Forensic Approach presents a rigorous, scientific, and systematic analysis of the psychological mechanisms underlying criminal behaviour, integrating knowledge from clinical psychology, criminology, neuroscience, and criminal law. The book offers a comprehensive view of forensic criminal psychology as an applied discipline, exploring its role in investigation, expert assessment, and the justice system. Throughout its chapters, the work examines the relationship between psychopathology and criminality, personality traits associated with violent behaviour, decision-making processes in high-risk contexts, and the psychological dynamics of different offender typologies. It also analyses the functioning of memory and testimony, the credibility of statements in court, the psychological mechanisms of confession including false confessions and evidence-based investigative interviewing techniques. With a strong emphasis on professional practice, the book describes methodologies of forensic psychological assessment, psychometric instruments used in judicial contexts, models for analysing the risk of violence, and procedures for preparing expert reports. It further explores the psychology of victimisation, the impact of psychological trauma, and the technical criteria for assessing psychological harm. Beyond the analysis of the offender, the text addresses the functioning of the judicial system from a psychological perspective, discussing the role of the expert witness in court, the limits of psychological evidence, and the ethical challenges of forensic intervention. The work highlights the importance of scientific objectivity, professional responsibility, and the integration of psychological knowledge into legal decision-making. Intended for students, psychologists, criminologists, professionals within the justice system, and researchers, this work combines solid theoretical grounding with practical application, offering conceptual and methodological tools for understanding and assessing criminal behaviour in real-world contexts. More than a study of crime, this book is an in-depth exploration of the human processes that make it possible from invisible motivations to observable consequences, from the individual mind to social impact. In a world where understanding human behaviour is essential for justice, prevention, and intervention, this work proposes a scientific, critical, and integrative approach to the psychology of criminal behaviour. It stands as an essential reference for those seeking to understand not only what crime.

Study Methodology in Higher Education - Manual No. 1

Entering higher education is not merely a change in academic level; it represents a profound shift in the way one studies, organises time, and assumes responsibility for one’s own learning.

Be a Bitch!

This powerful and provocative work stands as a bold literary challenge to the double standards that continue to shape society’s judgement of women. Through sharp irony, uncompromising honesty, and deliberate repetition, the author exposes the structural contradictions that celebrate freedom in men whilst condemning the same freedom in women. Each statement serves as a striking reminder of the prejudice, scrutiny, and symbolic violence that countless women endure simply for existing on their own terms. More than a collection of ironic declarations, this book is both manifesto and testimony—an unflinching reflection on inherited sexism, social hypocrisy, and the silent endurance of generations of women. Its concise, piercing style leaves no room for comfort, compelling readers to confront uncomfortable truths about morality, power, and gender. Challenging, thought-provoking, and deeply liberating, this is a work that invites reflection, unsettles certainty, and transforms irony into a forceful act of resistance and awakening.

Beyond Silence

Beyond Silence – Life After Physical Death is a thought-provoking exploration of one of humanity’s greatest mysteries: does consciousness continue beyond physical death? Blending scientific inquiry, Clinical Psychoanalysis, and spiritual reflection, this work invites readers to consider death not as an ending, but as a threshold into a deeper dimension of existence. Through compelling accounts of Near-Death Experiences, contemporary perspectives on consciousness, and sensitive reflections on grief, love, and human connection, the book examines the possibility that identity and awareness may transcend the body. Written with academic depth yet accessible clarity, it avoids dogma and sensationalism, instead offering a balanced and introspective journey between evidence, emotion, and mystery. At its heart, Beyond Silence is a book about meaning—about what remains when the physical body falls silent, and whether love, memory, and the essence of being continue beyond what we call death.
