The Criminal Imbecile: An Analysis of Three Remarkable Murder Cases

by Henry H. Goddard

Overview

Although the title isn't exactly politically correct in this day and age, Henry Goddard's in-depth study of low-intelligence and developmentally disabled murderers certainly stands up to the test of time. In three detailed case studies, Goddard classifies the characteristics of different types of developmentally disabled criminals and posits theories about how these types of mental impairments can lead to criminal behavior in some situations.
