Crime: Its Causes And Remedies is a book written by Cesare Lombroso, an Italian criminologist and physician, originally published in 1899. The book is a comprehensive study of the causes of crime and the possible remedies for it. Lombroso's work is considered one of the most influential in the field of criminology and has had a significant impact on the development of modern criminal psychology.In the book, Lombroso argues that criminal behavior is not solely a matter of free will, but rather a result of biological and social factors. He suggests that criminals are born with certain physical and psychological traits that predispose them to criminal behavior. Lombroso also examines the role of social and environmental factors in the development of criminal behavior, such as poverty, family dysfunction, and lack of education.The book proposes various remedies for crime, including the improvement of social and economic conditions, the implementation of educational programs, and the use of scientific methods to identify and treat potential criminals. Lombroso also advocates for the use of rehabilitation and reintegration programs for convicted criminals, rather than punishment and imprisonment.Overall, Crime: Its Causes And Remedies is a seminal work in the field of criminology, offering a groundbreaking perspective on the causes of crime and the potential solutions to it. Lombroso's ideas have influenced generations of criminologists and continue to be studied and debated today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
