“Rafter is well known for her provocative and thoughtful work on the history of crime and criminal justice. In The Criminal Brain she tackles one of the most significant yet complex topics in the field today. As we witness new discoveries regarding the brain, genetics, consciousness, and human behavior, Rafter makes a persuasive case that we need to understand our past in order to chart our future course. I highly recommended Rafter’s book for criminological theorists and researchers alike.”
-John H. Laub,co-author of Shared Beginnings, Divergent Lives: Delinquent Boys to Age 70
“The book takes readers on a fascinating journey through the history of criminology and details where the field stands today.“
-Scientific American
“Rafter impressively documents the genealogy of biological ideas in criminology. She shows that criminology must take new biological ideas seriously and contextualize sociologically both the ideas and the phenomena in which biologists engage. The Criminal Brain warrants thorough and broad discussion.”
-Joachim J. Savelsberg,co-author of Constructing White-Collar Crime: Rationalities, Communication, Power
“Recommended.”
-Choice
“The Criminal Brain will have an important impact on social, political, and moral debates as biological criminology becomes increasingly prominent in coming years.”
-Simon A. Cole,author of Suspect Identities: A History of Fingerprinting and Criminal Identification
