Unique features of this book include chapters considering community awareness, strategies, survivors of arson, filicide and suicide by fire, as well as a new treatment model developed on the basis of the latest research in the field. It is divided into four parts: Theories and typologies of firesetting Legal, investigative and preventative issues Assessment and risk assessment of deliberate firesetters Treatment, needs and management of deliberate firesetters The Psychology of Arson provides the first scientist-practitioner model for the treatment of arson offenders.It will be an essential resource for forensic psychiatrists, clinical psychologists and other professionals working with this client group. |
