Challenging the assumption that serial killing is a part of and reaction to modern society, Ramsland (forensic psychology, DeSales U., Pennsylvania) presents evidence that the phenomenon has been around since the beginning of human history. She examines the evolving social attitudes that have affected serial murderers' motives, methods, and criminal careers in the context of their specific historical periods.
