Through their work, readers are granted a unique view of criminology and a better understanding of the criminal mind. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book opens with the earliest professional observations of criminals in the late 19th century and goes on to explore the rudimentary behavioral profiling and case analysis of the early 20th century. It shows how, by the 1960s and 1970s, behavioral professionals recognized the need for intense study of extreme offenders and got close to the likes of Richard Speck, John Wayne Gacy, and Ted Bundy to gain a fuller picture of their psychological development. Finally, readers learn how today's behavioral professionals rely on neurobiological correlates to assess predatory, impulsive, and addictive behavior.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKatherine Ramsland\u003c\/b\u003e, PhD, is associate professor of forensic psychology at DeSales University, Center Valley, PA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.3 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 02, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44905937502310,"sku":"9780313386725","price":115.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/U2V1VitsVUJ2NC9YWXM4SjJIbU16QT09.webp?v=1773043518","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-mind-of-a-murderer-privileged-access-to-the-demons-that-drive-extreme-violence-hardcover","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
