Inside the Minds of Sexual Predators - Hardcover
by Katherine Ramsland (Author), Patrick McGrain (Author)
This revealing look inside the minds of sexual predators, from cyber-stalkers to rapists to teachers who exploit underage children, explains why they commit their heinous crimes.
They are among the most frightening of all criminals, yet few have attempted to document the complex mindset of the sexual predator through intimate case details. Inside the Minds of Sexual Predators reexamines this intentional criminal behavior, describing the different types of sexual predators and explaining why they choose to commit their specific type of predatory acts. Each chapter of the book addresses a different category of predator or a specific, complex issue related to predatory behavior. Distinctions are drawn between types of offenders, from the casual offender to the depraved rapist and serial lust killer, and the variables that play a part in an individual's sexual predation are explored. Like Ramsland's Inside the Minds of Mass Murderers, this book is essential reading for professionals in law enforcement and psychology, as well as for everyone seeking to go beyond the headlines to understand this difficult and controversial topic.Katherine Ramsland is associate professor of forensic psychology and chair of the Department of Social Sciences at DeSales University, Center Valley, PA. She has written 900 articles and 37 books, including Praeger's Inside the Minds of Serial Killers: Why they Kill .
