Passive voice

Hello friends. I've a question about spanish passive voice. My confusion is between use of impersonal se and use of ser + past participle. For example, here is two sentence ;

1) Peter no se ha visto desde el viernes.
2) Este libro fue escrito por mi tía.

I can not understand where to use impersonal se and where not? or use of impersonal se and ser + past participle are interchangeable? Can anyone explain this? THANKS in advance.
