"Excellent text required for a class. This is such a new field of study, however the text is well thought out, organized, and well written. Had I not rented this book, but had to buy it, it'd become a permanent fixture in my professional library."

  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 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.

  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 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 devices, which isn't common in most eTextbooks.

• I actually really enjoyed this book. It is different from most textbooks in a way I can't explain. It's just more fun to read. It's really not a boring book. I am concentrating in clinical, but I enjoyed this book for my forensics class. I actually enjoyed reading it which is rare. It's easier to read than most textbooks.
• Excellent text required for a class. This is such a new field of study, however the text is well thought out, organized, and well written. Had I not rented this book, but had to buy it, it'd become a permanent fixture in my professional library.
• Great deal on a book, fast shipping. Great deal.
• Although I should say "fascinating, if you are interested in the basic theories and foundations of the subject of forensic psychology." I do understand that this is a textbook, and many people have a hard time reading texts; however, if you can get past that, this book is probably the best "intro to" book that I have ever read. I've used it in one class so far and will use it for at least three others.
• Forensic Psychology Research Textbook was exceptionally informative. Very happy with it's educational content. I feel it will help make me a better paramedic instructor.
• Very pleased with book
• I am using this book for a course in school. It is a basic text book, nothing spectacular about it but it is readable. Some texts are dry and can make the course a bore, this does not do that. It contains pretty basic level information about the criminal justice system and forensic psychology.
