Meer over het boek

The book explores the historical roots of biological determinism in criminology, tracing its origins to Cesare Lombroso's 1876 work, "Criminal Man." Lombroso's theories, influenced by Darwin, suggested that criminals are evolutionary throwbacks, identifiable by specific physical traits. This perspective posits that these individuals are unable to change their criminal tendencies due to their biological makeup, challenging modern views on the nature of crime and its causes.
