520 1 $a"What makes otherwise stable and respected men and women commit crimes? Lee Malvo, one of the D.C. snipers, was known to his friends and family as a smart promising man. "Steven," was a talented, young scientist with no criminal record. No one suspected the was capable of injuring another - until he was arrested for abducting a man, handcutting him, and threatening to blow off his head with a pistol." "Why don't those who know these individuals best see the signs of potential danger? Are there clues one can look for that indicate when a person is about to snap? What in the psychological makeup of offenders results in their committing crimes? In The Myth of the Out of Character Crime, a seasoned forensic psychologist delves into the psyches of these otherwise "normal" people, whom he has treated and researched for many years."--BOOK JACKET.
