Criminological theory dating back one hundred years has been aware of
the need to develop a neurobiology of extroversion, impulsivity,
frontal-lobe dysfunction, and aggressive behavior, yet in the twentieth
century criminologists have largely forsaken this psychobiological
legacy.
The Neurobiology of Criminal Behavior looks at this legacy with
reference to a variety of neurobiological methodologies currently in
vogue. The authors are all distinguished researchers who have
contributed considerably to their respective fields of psychiatry,
psychology, psychobiology, and neuroscience.
