Strangers on the Street: Serial Homicide in South Africa
Share
Micki Pistorius is an investigative psychologist whose doctoral thesis proposed a theory for the origin of serial homicide. She spent six years as a profiler and was involved in 35 serial killer investigations, which she described in her first successful book, Catch Me A Killer.
Now, in this comprehensive study of serial homicide, she offers vital information about the mind of the serial killer, including behavioural patterns and motives. This serious attempt to understand the serial killer can help stop them. For, as the author points out, a serial killer's prospect of rehabilitation is negative, and he must be removed from society for the remainder of his life. Includes a section of black and white photos of real crime scenes.

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
