Description

Explore a new perspective on human violence with Rethinking Serial Murder, Spree Killing, and Atrocities: Beyond the Usual Distinctions. This Routledge Advances in Sociology volume challenges the traditional view that serial killers, spree killers, and mass violence seen in war crimes belong to entirely separate categories of human behavior. Instead of viewing these acts as the work of inherently evil or born deviants, this book examines these violent events through the lens of broader questions regarding human violence. By moving away from the idea that certain individuals are naturally gifted with sadism or a lack of empathy, the text offers a more comprehensive sociological framework. Through the description of life histories from a sample of individual serial and spree murderers, the book provides a deep look into the patterns of violence. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in anthropology, sociology, and the study of criminal behavior.
