L'uomo Delinquente
(The Criminal Man) is Cesare Lombroso's foundational work in criminology, exploring the relationship between anthropology, jurisprudence, and penology. This influential study examines various types of criminals, including the epileptic, those driven by impulse, the insane, and the 'criminaloid'.
Lombroso's theories, though controversial, marked a turning point in the scientific study of crime, advocating for a biological understanding of criminal behavior. This edition offers insights into 19th-century Italian thought on crime, justice, and the nature of deviance. A valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history of criminology and forensic science.
