More about the book
- What motivates an outwardly normal man to abduct, torture and murder a complete stranger? - Why do particular personality types join a terrorist cell? - What goes through the mind of a father who plans to kill his entire family in cold blood and fake his own disappearance? In The Minds of Murderers explores these questions and more, drawing on the often harrowing real-life experiences of the world's leading criminal profilers and forensic psychologists who have been responsible for tracking down some of the most notorious serial killers, sexual predators, extortionists and terrorists of modern times. While many infamous killers are profiled in these pages, the dark heart of this book explores the nature of evil and what motivates men, women and sometimes even children to commit the most appalling acts imaginable. It also explodes the myth of the motiveless crime and challenges the popular belief that all killers are crazy.
