Opis

This lauded bestseller, now available in paperback, takes an uncompromising look at how we define psychopathology and makes the argument that criminal behavior can and perhaps should be considered a disorder. Presenting sociological, genetic, neurochemical, brain-imaging, and psychophysiological evidence, it discusses the basis for criminal behavior and suggests, contrary to popular belief, that such behavior may be more biologically determined than previously thought. It presents a new conceptual approach to understanding crime as a disorder and provides the most extensive review of biological predispositions to criminal behavior to date. It presents the practical implications of viewing crime as a psychopathology in the contexts of free will, punishment, treatment, and future biosocial research and includes numerous tables and figures throughout. It contains an extensive reference list and analyzes the familiar and extra-familiar causes of crime. This book reviews the predispositions to crime including evolution and genetics, and the neuropsychological, psychophysiological, brain-imaging, neurochemical, and cognitive factors.
