Reviews
A Yankee Book Peddler UK Core Title for 2012 'This book presents extremely interesting and valuable information about the importance of neurobiology in the understanding of criminal behavior. It throws new light on many important issues such as the age-crime curve, gender differences in crime, low intelligence and crime, violence, psychopathy, hyperactivity, and the effects of substance abuse. It should be essential reading for all criminologists.' David P. Farrington, University of Cambridge, UK 'For biosocial criminologists, a small but growing group, this book will be a handy resource on very familiar material. For criminologists who are brand new to a neurobiological approach to understanding crime, the book is a fun, handy and relevant overview of material that will get even the most novice of readers up to speed. For the lay person who simply enjoys learning about criminal behavior, The Neurobiology of Criminal Behavior is a great place to start. I strongly recommend this book.'
