520 0 _a"Creativity is typically perceived to be a positive, constructive attribute and, yet, highly effective, novel crimes are committed which illustrate that creativity can also be utilised to serve a darker and more destructive end. But how can these 'creative criminals' be stopped? Adopting a psychological approach, renowned subject experts Cropley and Cropley draw upon concepts such as 'Person', 'Process', 'Press', and 'Product' to explain how existing psychological theories of creativity can be applied to a more subtle subset of ingenuity; that is to say, criminal behaviour and its consequences. Creativity and Crime does not look at felony involving impulsive, reflexive, or merely deviant behaviour, but rather the novel and resourceful measures employed by certain criminals to more effectively achieve their law-breaking goals. The book transcends the link between crime and creativity and proposes a range of preventive measures for law-enforcers. Scholars and graduates alike will find this an invaluable and illuminating read"--
