The Mind of the Murderer
نویسنده
چکیده
Cases are cited, some from the author's professional experience, ?f murders committed under the influence of schizophrenia, hysteria, mental deficiency, paranoia, epilepsy, melancholia, and lowering of the blood sugar, and of murder by psychopaths, with reference to the background of the crime, the mental state of the criminal and the legal outcome.
