Presenting a valuable integration of the latest criminology research, this work uses the analysis of the most controversial topics in the field—bringing together philosophical, legal, sociological, and psychological perspectives to the field of antisocial behavior. The book also proposes that the science of criminology needs to focus its efforts on a way to create a social technology that allows for change to come about in the field. This would achieve a shift from the speculative to the actual path where criminal behavior leads. Ideal for philosophers, criminologists, lawyers, sociologist

Psychopath, sociopath, moral defective - these are some of the labels which have been given to people who suffer from abnormal personalities.

In 1980, psychiatry formally introduced the controversial diagnostic category of antisocial personality disorder.

The rise in sociopathic behavior among adults and children, whether in tense inner cities or in tranquil suburban and rural settings, is masterfully chronicled by Dr Benjamin Wolman, a leading psychologist and noted national expert who has studied these trends fo
