The Criminal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162938578)

The Criminal is a book written by Havelock Ellis, which delves into the psychology of criminal behavior. The author explores the various factors that contribute to criminal activity, such as social, biological, and psychological influences. Ellis examines the different types of criminals, including those who commit crimes out of desperation, those who are driven by greed or revenge, and those who suffer from mental illness.The book also discusses the ways in which society responds to criminal behavior, including punishment and rehabilitation. Ellis argues that punishment alone is not enough to deter criminal behavior and that rehabilitation programs are necessary to address the underlying causes of criminal activity.Throughout the book, Ellis uses case studies and real-life examples to illustrate his points, and he draws on his extensive knowledge of psychology and criminology to provide a comprehensive analysis of criminal behavior. The Criminal is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on crime and its causes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
