Synopsis "Fitting the Facts of Crime: An Invitation to Biopsychosocial Criminology (in English)"
Biosocial criminology--and biosocial criminologists--focuses on both the environmental and biological factors that contribute to antisocial behavior. Importantly, these two domains are not separate parts of an equation but pieces of the same puzzle that fit together for a complete picture of the causes of crime/antisocial behavior. Fitting the Facts of Crime applies a biopsychosocial lens to the "13 facts of crime" identified by John Braithwaite in his classic book, Crime, Shame and Reintegration. The authors unpack established facts--about gender and sex, age, environment, education, class, social bonds and associations, stress, and other influences--providing both empirical research and evidence from biopsychosocial criminology to address the etiology behind these facts and exactly how they are related to deviant behavior.With their approach, the authors show how biopsychosocial criminology can be a unifying framework to enrich our understanding of the most robust and well-established topics in the field. In so doing, they demonstrate how biological and psychological findings can be responsibly combined with social theories to lend new insight into existing inquiries and solutions. Designed to become a standard text for criminology in general, Fitting the Facts of Crime introduces key concepts and applies them to real-world situations.
