Serial Killer Psychology
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I purchased this book out of morbid curiosity. After reading it through I decided it to be a great read and a very insightful book. It lists and explains many of the reasoning behind the murders. I think it is a must have for any psychology especially criminal psychology students. It is a very easy to read book and it does make you think about the possible motivations and thoughts of the killers themselves. This is perhaps one of the best books I have ever read. I would recommend it to anyone I know.
A Facinating Book For Anyone Interested in Serial Killers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
If you are interested in serial killers, I highly reccommend reading this book. It covers more than just serial killers though. It covers anything and everything having to do with serial killers. It doesn't just cover the most famous serial killers, it covers other ones you probably have never heard of and gives chilling details of some of their vicious crimes.
Comperhensive, graphic, and deeply unsettling

This book is one of my favorites of all time. As sick and graphic as it is, it's a very good, easy to read, book. I've become a big fan of Harold Schechter, check this one out you won't regret it.
A very exillirating and suspenseful look at dangerous people
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is full of intensity and suspense as you read more into the book. It helps you to see what all these people put into their hunt for a victim. It is very hard to put down because everyone you read about did somethiung different to their victims. It is very well detailed and informational. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading about true crime.
A book you can't put down!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I bought this book a year ago and I still love reading it. If you are interested in serial killers this is the book for you. I'm afraid to get another serial killer book, because it may not be as good as this one! This book educated me to the extreme. I also suggest the TV show "American Justice" on A & E if you like listening to serial killers and their crimes. I love this show and this book! -- Rosebud
