Talking with Psychopaths: Beyond Evil
Autor Christopher Berry-Deeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 aug 2023
In Talking with Psychopaths: Beyond Evil, criminologist Berry-Dee combines sections on killers whom he has known, interviewed, or corresponded with, with studies of psychopathic serial killers from the past, including Peter Kurten, the Dusseldorf Monster; John Christie, a murderer and necrophile; and Neville Heath, a ladykiller in every sense of the word. The result is a chilling narrative that sets the forensic examination of killers and their crimes within the context of murder in the 20th and 21st centuries, and the insoluble problem of identifying these psychopaths.

Notă biografică
in 1948, Christopher Berry-Dee is descended from Dr. John Dee, Court
Astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I, and is the founder and former Director
of the Criminology Research Institute (CRI), and former publisher and
Editor-in-Chief of The Criminologist, a highly respected journal on matters concerning all aspects of criminology from law enforcement to forensic psychology. Christopher
has interviewed and interrogated over thirty of the world's most
notorious killers--serial, mass and one-off--including Peter Sutcliffe,
Ted Bundy, Aileen Wuornos, Dennis Nilsen and Joanne Dennehy. He was
co-producer/interviewer for the acclaimed twelve-part TV documentary
series The Serial Killers, and has appeared on television as a consultant on serial homicide, and, in the series Born to Kill?,
on the cases of Fred and Rose West, the Moors Murderers and Dr. Harold
Shipman. He has also assisted in criminal investigations as far afield
as Russia and the United States. Notable book successes include: Monster (basis for the movie of the same title, about Aileen Wuornos); and the internationally bestselling Talking with Serial Killers and Talking with Psychopaths series. world-renowned investigative criminologist, and the editor of The New Criminologist magazine. He does not shy from visiting prisons to interview some of the most disturbed murderers who are behind bars, gaining their trust and delving into the depths of their minds.
Descriere
Having spent years interviewing imprisoned criminals - including notorious serial killers - he discovered that the lack of remorse these people showed was in many ways even more terrifying than the crimes they had committed. Yet in the course of these conversations, the author also had the chance to interview his subjects' psychiatrists and, in doing so, uncovered a terrible truth: a monster can be hidden behind a friendly face. Some of these experts, he found, proved to have more in common with their patients than he would ever have expected.
This book examines horrific crimes committed by some of the most remorseless and merciless people ever to have lived. If it reveals a mindset wholly alien to most people, it also, shockingly, demonstrates that some of the people who treat these psychopaths have their own demons. Talking with Psychopaths and Savages will inevitably shift the reader's view of psychopaths, and in doing so, reveals that horror can be much closer to us than we think.
