Pre-order this edge-of-your-seat journey into the darkest depths of the human mind from forensic psychiatrist Dr Duncan Harding
"Grips you from the start like a bestselling novel then takes you on an extraordinary journey … Riveting” JOHN HUMPHRYS
‘Incisive, informative and occasionally shocking, The Criminal Mind is an engrossing book’ DR RICHARD SHEPHERD, bestselling author of Unnatural Causes
‘A penetrating insight into the darkest corners of the human mind. The most moving, surprising and compelling book you’ll read this year’ M.J. ARLIDGE, bestselling author of Eeny Meeny
- A likeable young girl who’s burnt her family home to the ground
- A man with no memory of the night he killed his wife
- A teenager whose visions and voices have had murderous effect
One question binds these and others from the casebook of Britain’s leading forensic psychiatrist: Why?
What drives a person to commit seemingly inexplicable crimes? Dr Duncan Harding is the person the police and the courts turn to for answers.
An expert witness, he must try to establish a defendant’s mental state and motivation. And their fitness to stand trial.
Growing up in a broken, violent home, Harding became a doctor because he wanted to be good and kind. It led him on a journey that has brought him face to face with psychopaths, taken him to the limits of his compassion and to the darkest corners of his own troubled past.
But he’s never turned away nor given up hope. Mesmerising, insightful and redemptive, The Criminal Mind is his unforgettable story.
'Not just another forensic psychiatrist’s casebook. . . . a moving account of how Harding became a child and adolescent forensic psychiatrist, caring for mentally disordered child and adolescent offenders' KEITH RIX professor of medical jurisprudence and forensic psychiatrist
