Professor David Canter, the internationally renowned applied social researcher and world-leading crime psychologist, is perhaps most widely known as one of the pioneers of ‘Offender Profiling’ being the first to introduce its use to the UK. Professor Canter’s conviction that any contributions made by psychologists and other social scientists to the police investigation or the legal process must have an empirical, scientific basis has led him to create the discipline of Investigative Psychology.
