Reviews

Dr. Aggrawal proceeds as a dispassionate scientist to unearth ! both contemporary and historical cases that will amaze the reader, and also construct for the first time a classification of various kinds of necrophilia. ! Along with his previous textbook, Forensic and Medico-legal Aspects of Sexual Crimes and Unusual Sexual Practices, Dr. Aggrawal has once again made a very important contribution to the criminal forensic literature. Necrophilia is extreme, it is rare, and it is inexplicable to most; but until now, it has also been devoid of a systematic, scientific, and investigative text!. . -- From the Foreword by J. Reid Meloy, Ph.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego
