"This book is a timely contribution towards infusing Afrocentric perspectives in African scholarship by indigenous scholars. I highly recommend it." - Emmanuel Onyeozili, Professor, Department of Criminal Justice, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, USA "This edited volume has given a refreshing voice to psycho-criminological narratives in the continent. It is recommended for its breadth of coverage and the multi-disciplinary outlook of its authors." - Adegboyega Ogunwale, Consultant Psychiatrist, Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Aro, Nigeria "This collection represents a significant step in the study of mental health, crime and criminal justice in Africa. The breadth of topics covered is impressive." - Justice Tankebe, Lecturer, Institute of Criminology, University of Cambridge, UK "The editors did well to coordinate the efforts of the contributors. I highly recommend it for all who are interested in the nexus between crime, mental health, and criminal justice systems." - Francis D. Boateng, Assistant Professor, Department of Criminal Justice and Legal Studies, University of Mississippi, USA This book aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for a myriad of crime and mental health topics and issues in the African criminal justice system from a psycho-criminological perspective. Crime, Mental Health and the Criminal Justice System in Africa: A Psycho-Criminological Perspective is an ideal primary text for courses in criminology, criminal justice, and forensic psychology, as well as a source of reference for practitioners who deal with offenders or victims. Heng Choon (Oliver) Chan is Associate Professor of Criminology at City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, SAR. His research focuses on psycho-criminology of crimes and criminal behaviour, violent sexual offending, stalking behaviour, and Asian criminology. He is the author of several books and more than 90 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters. Samuel Adjorlolo is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mental Health Nursing, University of Ghana, Ghana. His research interests centre on forensic mental health, child and adolescent mental health and maternal mental health. He has published over 30 articles in peer-reviewed journals.
