More about the book
Focusing on the act of murder, this work examines how interpretations of human behavior have evolved since 1830 through the lens of over a hundred novels, including classics like Crime and Punishment and Lolita. Each chapter explores a specific causal factor or motive—such as ancestry, childhood, and sexuality—while integrating insights from various scientific disciplines and philosophical systems. By intertwining literature with scientific thought, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the changing landscape of causality in human behavior.
