Publisher's Synopsis

Psychology of Deception: Analysis of Sexually Psychopathic Serial Crime offers insight into the minds of society's most intriguing predators. Students will discover how the psychology of deception is fully engaged in sexually psychopathic serial crimes as predators appear to be one thing, yet turn out to be another.

The neuropsychology that this text is based upon has considerable evidence that shows biological predispositions to violence when coupled with severe parental mistreatment. Forensic neuropsychologists show how the predator's brain is "marked" for violence in sexually psychopathic crimes.

Psychology of Deception is divided into five units:

  • Deception & Sexuality
  • Readings in Psychology of Deception
  • Brainmarks of Personality
  • Poisonous Parenting
  • Standing on the Shoulders of History
This text also includes Predator Profile sections that present and analyze selected serial killers and their crimes. Your students will explore modern forensic psychology and criminal profiling as they untangle the mystery of our minds.
