Criminal Profiling: An Introduction to Behavioral Evidence Analysis Book

Criminal Profiling: An Introduction to Behavioral Evidence Analysis is a unique work centered on the Deductive Profiling method developed by the author.

It also includes the author's unique analysis of the Whitechapel Murders (Jack the Ripper) of 1888 and the JonBenet Ramsey homicide of 1996.Criminal Profiling is a perfect companion for students and professionals in the law enforcement, mental health, criminological, and legal communities.
