Introduction to Forensic Psychology: Research and Application

February 6, 2019:After spending nearly four weeks with the textbook, I've added another star for quality. Yes, the formatting isn't the same as the hard- or paperback version of the text. However, as far as an e-textbook format goes, I'm really enjoying this textbook now. It's EXTREMELY customizable, in the effect that you can pretty much do anything with it like you could with your usual kindle books. Text-to-speech is a great feature that's available for this title, and word runner's scrolling mode is great for skimming information. Additionally, the ability to change line spacing, font, and background color on the PC reader is really advantageous for long study sessions.The only reason why this is at, and will remain at, four stars now is the lack of x-ray utility. The other e-texts on Amazon are great about hovering over bold terms and having the definition within quick reference. This textbook lacks that feature, and as a result you'll wind up spending a LOT of time making your own flashcards.--------------------------------------January 16, 2019:It was my mistake for not checking the inside look before purchasing, but the electronic edition of the book is not even remotely formatted like the physical text at all. This is the first eTextbook from Amazon that I've purchased that isn't a carbon copy of the physical version, and for my lecture style course that utilizes the book in class that's going to be an issue. For others looking to purchase this for courses that utilize the book in class, good luck - you'll have to be religious about taking notes and using bookmarks to find your place quickly in class.I'll update later as I progress through the text with my introductory course, but at this moment it feel like the electronic version is going to be more of a hindrance than a great study aid. I think the only saving grace will be the built in text-to-speech accessibility feature on the Kindle devices, which isn't common in most eTextbooks.----

I am not a student or an academic. I read this book just because I am a true crime and crime drama fan. And I read it through, made a lot of notes, and I got to say this book elevated my whole viewing experience!!

This text book is very informative and is an interesting read! I wish that I had purchased the book instead of renting it. An excellent read!

Came right on time and was in great condition!

I was upset that a card with information (code) to use the student portal wasn’t included with my book.

I purchased this for my son's college Psychology class. It was full of great info and easy to understand.

The book was delivered earlier than expected. The only issue I had with the book is that the person who had it before me highlighted the book and wrote notes in the margin. I generally do the same thing, however there was no method to the highlighting. It was random with random colors and it's distracting and frustrating for someone like me who needs everything to be organized perfectly. It's a good book for the price but just know that they are used and will not be in great condition, but they are decent for the price.

Ordered this for my Intro to Forensic Psychology class and got exactly the book i needed in really good condition!
