Reviews
"[H]ighly recommended for large public and university libraries, given the tremendous interest in the psychology of killers." - Library Journal, "Ramsland provides fascinating, provocative insights into why some people kill, or attempt to kill, multiple victims at one time. This riveting work comprises tales of mass murders and murderers that include such famous cases as Richard Speck, the Texas clock tower massacre, the Manson murders, the Buddhist temple murders, the Columbine High School murders, and the post office murders. They read like a series of horror stories, but at the same time Ramsland demonstrates the nuances among the different types of mass murderers--victims of mental illness, children, family members, disgruntled employees, and those who murder for religious or political reasons. As Ramsland skillfully demonstrates, the psychological motivation behind these different types of mass murders varies….This is a vital resource for those interested in psychology, criminal justice, legal studies, or forensics. Essential. All collections; all levels." -, "[H]ighly recommended for large public and university libraries, given the tremendous interest in the psychology of killers." -- Library Journal, "[H]ighly recommended for large public and university libraries, given the tremendous interest in the psychology of killers."- Library Journal, "[H]ighly recommended for large public and university libraries, given the tremendous interest in the psychology of killers."

Synopsis
From Waco to Columbine High School, Ramsdale examines the phenomenon of mass murder and reveals the distinct psychological dynamics of perpetrators of this crime. Arguing that mass killers can be identified before they strike, the author provides common red flags that may identify these criminals before they embark on their missions of violence., The idea that a person might suddenly snap and slaughter large numbers of people has become part of our cultural understanding through events such as the Columbine High School massacre and the D.C. Sniper case. But this image of the sudden turn from ordinary citizen, quiet neighbor, or non-descript teenager to mass murderer is generally false. People who go out one day and kill innocent people or supposed enemies have typically thought about it, planned it, and even mentioned it to others before they actually do it--and the act is usually the result of a buildup of stress and frustration. Here, Katherine Ramsland, a seasoned crime writer, examines true stories of mass murder and reveals the complexity behind the development of a mass killer. She provides common signals, based on actual cases, that will help readers identify warning signs and understand the various psychological factors that may lead a person to kill. Since the first recorded U.S. case of mass murder in 1949, massacres have been increasing each decade, with workplace violence taking the lead as the most common form. The psychology of the killers, however, differs from that of spree, serial, or situational murderers. The red flags of a developing mass killer are obvious and predictable, Ramsland argues, and people who learn to recognize them may be able to defuse a potentially violent situation before it occurs. Using details from various cases, the author examines the different kinds of mass murders, from visionary to family to workplace, and the distinct psychological dynamics of the different types of murders. This essential book exposes the inner world of mass murderers and dismantles the stereotypes we hold about them.
