The Anatomy Of Evil by Michael H Stone
The crimes of Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, Dennis Rader, and other high-profile killers are so breathtakingly awful that most people would not hesitate to label them 'evil'. This title uses this common emotional reaction to horrifying acts to explore the concept and reality of evil from a fresh perspective.
