----
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.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The harrowing memoir of forensic psychiatrist Dr Duncan HardingAs a forensic psychiatrist, Duncan Harding has worked on some of the most harrowing cases one can imagine. spending time in the prison service, the Old Bailey and at Broadmoor psychiatric hospital. His is a life spent working with serial killers, psychopaths, children who kill their family and friends. From notorious cases of gang violence and repeated domestic abuse, to a twelve year old boy who set fire to his classmate's face, Harding reckons daily with humankind's unspeakable capacity for sadistic violence.Yet it is the humanity of these perpetrators that is the most shocking - how, with the wrong push at the wrong time, so many people are mere inches away from similar brutality. The people Harding has met and the stories they tell paint a chilling picture of modern Britain, and the paths our society leads people down towards the most horrific of acts.In his attempts to make sense of these unimaginable crimes, Harding confronts agonizing questions - of when to call for justice, when to argue for mercy, when to break confidentiality, when to look closer, when to believe, when to forgive.Broken Lives reveals the hard decisions we all must make when we come face to face with the unspeakable.
