Criminal Minds: Sociopaths, Serial Killers, and Other Deviants

Fast shipping, good quality plus there isn't really anything bad I can say about the best series EVER!

I recommend this book for anyone who has seen the tv show and is interested in learning about how it relates to real life. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and the explanations of how the criminals seen on the show are sometimes based on real criminals. In the end of the book, there is also information about real Fbi agents and jobs for people who are interested in someday working for the Fbi, like me. This is a really great book, but it does contain violent descriptions and this should be considered when purchasing for younger readers.

Great book, and I like the way the TV show, was worked into the stories of these infamous Serial Killers. It is a Who's-Who of this Dark Side of Our Society, and a very scary one at that. Most Serial Killers are either Sociopaths or Psychopaths, and most have an enormous ego. And if average Americans knew just how many Serial Killers, we have running around in our fair streets, it would indeed cause a panic. Do you have a Serial Killer in your city or state? I do..... He kills hookers, and his AO is from Georgia to Maryland, around I 95. He has been adding to his body count since the 1980's. What makes people Serial Killers and why, you ask..... To find that out, the FBI created it's vaunted BAU, and profiling began. The MSM, likes to give these killers Nick Names, something the BAU frowns upon. That ego thing again, do not give the Serial Killer any more press. Serial Killers, cover just about all areas and kinks, and are very good at blending in, for awhile. They can be...... Solo Killers Sexual Killers Famous People Killers Cannibal Killers Traveling Killers Female Killers Family Killers...... Read the book, and get a good look into their Criminal Minds.

If you like criminal minds the show, you will love this book. It's very informative, but not in a dry textbook way. When reading some of the crazy horrible parts I had to read over it more than once, because I just could not believe someone could be so evil or get joy out of what they were doing. I have always been very interested in serial killers because there is something inside that wants to figure out how they think and what drove them to killing. So give this book a try, I think you will enjoy it if its an interesting subject for you.

Excellent. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book doesn't really talk a lot about the actual show, just says how some of the fictional criminals in the show are based off real life serial killers, and then explains the real life serial killer in more detail. So I don't recommend this book if you're wanting to read strictly about the show. It talked about all different kinds of crimes and all types of criminals. Rape, kidnap, torture, cannibalism, arsenals, bombers, taking hostages, etc. It didn't just talk about adult killers either, but also child killers. It gives details of the crimes which are often very sickening, but sometimes when reading about their lives, especially if their childhood is mentioned, its hard not to feel sympathetic. The only thing that disappointed me was that I found out that the BAU team in Criminal Minds is way more badass than real life FBI agents. I guess I should of figured that, though. If you like reading about criminals/serial killers, then you should definitely check out this book.

Good

I really liked this book, except for the very last chapter that describes what real profilers actually do. If you like the show, don't read the very last chapter; it will spoil the show. The writer was great with the details of the killers and very respectful to the reader (there is a chapter about children that are murdered and the author does NOT go into the detail of their deaths. I found that comforting because I didn't want to know what happened to children). I suggest reading it if you like the show OR if you want a non-fiction about serial killers.

brought as a christmas present, daughter loved it

Love it

Arrivato con copertina e alcuni fogli rovinati

An amazing look into the real life serial killers that inspired criminal minds!

Das Buch gibt einen guten Überblick über die verschiedenen GAttungen von Mördern und Serientätern. Die beschriebenen realen Fälle werden kurz zusammenfassend vorgestellt. Für einen ersten Überblick über das Thema sehr gut geeignet, für detailliertere Infromationen ist eine weiterführende Recherche nötig. Leider nur englischsprachig erhältlich, aber wenn man das spezifische Vokabular kennt ist es einfach und flüssig zu lesen.
