Inhaltsangabe

Little is known about Sexual Murderers - those who kill in a sexual context. Recent studies have compared their backgrounds and characteristics with that of rapists and/or violent (non-sexual) offenders. This translation of a French original by the renowned Jean Proulx challenges existing knowledge on sexual murders, offers new tools for profiling and interrogation, and helps to establish a new research base. Current theories of sexual murder, its prevalence, reasons including attachment theories, profiling and interrogation techniques are all addressed in Proulx's distinctive, thought-provoking style.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Sexual Murderers successfully takes on the challenge of expanding upon the little that is known about the developmental and psychological profile of sexual murderers, with a range of startling empirical results that subsume and challenge traditional perspectives.

This English translation of the definitive, evidence-based book profiling sexual murderers, Les Meurtriers Sexuels, proves an invaluable tool for criminologists, forensic psychologists and psychiatrists world-wide. It features material from a range of international contributors including chapters that delve into new case studies and broaden the reach of the research topic.

The text is divided into three parts. The first part presents the results of the Montreal Study of Sexual Murderers, covering theories of developmental psychology, identification of psychopathologies, plus statistics and case studies. the second part uncovers the results of the Birmingham Study of Sexual Murderers, including research on the typology of sexual murderers. The third part covers a range of practical issues such as the role of profiling in investigation, and psychotherapeutic issues.

This resource is integral reading for academics and researchers in criminology, psychiatry and psychology, as well as professionals directly involved in criminal justice - police, lawyers and psychologists.
