Criminal Psychology and Forensic Technology: A Collaborative Approach to Effective Profiling
ISBN: 9780849323584 / Angielski / Twarda / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Offender profiling has been developing slowly as a possible investigative tool since 1841 and the publication of Edgar Allen Poe's The Murder in the Rue Morgue. In this book, detective C.
