A World-Famous Psychiatrist Tells Why People Kill. ** Goodreads: Preceded by the Original Hardcover edition Published in 1949; Psychiatrist, it contains a series of cases Wertham worked on determining the legal sanity of a number of accused murderers during the 1930's in New York. Each case is more ambiguous and difficult to decide than the last and Wertham is opinionated and intolerant of what he sees as the corrupt and ignorant lawyers and police around him. Wertham's style is solemn and thoughtful while being eminently readable and peppered with literary quotes and references to Kafka and Shakespeare among others. ** Chat: The Show of Violence is Wertham's deep dive into the psychology of violent crime. Long before Seduction of the Innocent made him infamous in comic-book circles, this book established him as a prominent forensic psychiatrist. * Case studies of real offenders; * Wertham examines several individuals who committed extreme acts of violence, exploring their childhoods, traumas, social environments, and mental states. * Violence as a social and psychological phenomenon; He argues that violent behavior rarely emerges from "evil" or innate criminality.

1st US Edition (Cordasco 70-1590). 49, [5] pp. Full page advert, at rear, for the "American Journal of Syphilography and Drematology", edited by Henry. 8vo. 9" x 6" From Henry's preface, "To the practitioner the minute details of treatment will be of especial interest and value; whie the numerous formulae (including about two hundred) afford a liberal choice in the management of these afflictions." Of interest in this particular copy is the light green printed bookseller label [1-1/2" x 1-11/16"] for "F. R. Wetmore & Co., / Booksellers / and / Stationers. / Yokohama, Japan" giving rise to the speculation that this English bookseller in Japan [Yokohama was not opened to foreign trade until 1859] would stock this title for visiting Western naval personnel, who battled the spread of venereal disease amongst their crew.
