1.0 out of 5 stars
Just plain bad,
This review is from: Profile of a Criminal Mind (Hardcover)
I was excited to get this book for I hoped it would further my understanding into a subject I had increasingly grown interested in...The criminal mind. When flipping through it, it seems like a great read, complete with case studies and forensic psychologyLittle did I know that this was a huge step backwards and to the side from other books I had read on the subject. Not only was it not interesting AT ALL, I was horrified to realize that this even begins going into other subjects that are not even close to being scientific in nature. If you want to read about Freud or Graphology (which is a joke--about as scientific as phrenology) thats fine. But don't expect those scientifically invalid interpretations of the mind to help you better understand the fast moving pace of research and experimentation that is forensic science. Instead stick with Mindhunter, the Crime Classification Manual, or anything that has a research bibliography in the back. |
