In introducing the broad spectrum of different features, aspects and forms of homicide, Brookman examines its patterns and trends, how it may be explained, its investigation and how it may be prevented. Areas covered include: the killing of children multiple homicide (including serial and mass murder, terrorism and corporate homicide) domestic homicide female killers homicide amongst menThe book is unique in its focus, coverage and style and bridges a major gap in criminological literature.
