It explores the biological bases of emotions such as aggression, anger, and hostility and how they- combined with social psychological influences, such as family history and environmental conditions - may lead to violence. Specific case studies, including serial killings, mass murders, family violence, cannibalism, and hitmen, are referenced throughout, providing real-world examples of these theories in action. Issues of free will and the law are discussed as well as suggestions for curbing violent behavior."-- $c Amazon.com. 505 0 $a Understanding violence -- The brain and emotions -- The origins of violence -- Psychopathy -- Serial killers -- Mass murderers -- Cannibalism -- Mexican hitmen -- Paramilitarism in Colombia -- Conclusions. 650 0 $a Criminology. 650 0 $a Criminal behavior $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Neuropsychology. 700 1 $a Ardila, Alfredo, $e author. 700 1 $a Diaz Colorado, Fernando, $e contributor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217030035.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7039DD40580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
