This book is a useful complement to any criminal behavioral profiling library. Unfortunately, proof reading by the publishers should have been taken much more seriously, and this failure detracts from its use as a scholarly reference source. Solecism is overly conspicuous and disturbing throughout the text and magnifies many passages suffering from sundry abuses of language. The authors' occasional attempts to infuse some humorous remarks, most of which fell short of their mark, would be better omitted.

Hopefully, reprinting of this book will mandate a close scrutiny of grammer. Substitution of such words as "the" and "to", etc. indicates spell checkers are not a substitute for tedious textual proofing: - On rereading this book I downgraded it from a 4 to a 3 based on grammatical error, not lack of useful material.
