review 1: This short tract is a very good, succinct introduction to the minds of psychopaths, specifically concentrating on the criminal exploits of a particularly remorseless serial killer, H. H. Holmes. The tests and findings, tools and equipment used to evaluate the criminal mind to find out what makes incorrigible criminals do what they do were mentioned briefly, enough to whet the reader's appetite to do more research/readings if he wants to. I just wish this book was longer and went into more detail about the criminal psychopathic mind.
review 2: This article espouses a theory that uses the case of HH Holmes as evidence. I use the term article because this reads like it comes out of a scientific journal and the author is a forensic and clinical psychologist. Psych... moreopaths know the difference between right and wrong, they just don't care, and HH Holmes is the classic example of a Psychopath. Holmes has a silver tongue which enables him to take advantage of others who trust his position as a doctor and thus it cost them their lives. Holmes murders for no other reason than enjoyment. If you don't know this story than read this article for that reason. less
