Children Who Kill: Profiles of Pre-Teen and Teenage Killers by Carol Anne Davis
2.0
this book was okay. definitely dated. would love to see an updated version with more cases and examples. seems like it was written with no experience - i am under the impression she has no background as a psychologist but i may be wrong. despite her saying ‘not an excuse but a reason’ it comes across as she is almost giving an excuse. it is hard though as they were children and it was terrible what happened to all. would like to have seen more evidence behind what she was saying and the use of references. the formatting was also a little strange? at first it’s a bunch of cases then groups them into categories. then changes to categories with cases for each one.
