商品簡介
Fox and Levin, professors of criminology at Northeastern University, present this detailed discussion of serial killing and mass murder. The work begins with an overview of the sociological fascination with multiple murders and the way that the media and public report and consume tragedy before delving into the details of serial murder and massacre style killings. Chapters use actual case studies to illustrate key psychological and criminological concepts and to explore both the mechanics and causes of mass murder. This second edition is updated throughout and includes new reference and case study materials drawn from recent crimes. The work includes several black and white photographs, tables and charts.
