Negative Positive
Title: Interesting but has some weaknesses
Review: If you are a student of criminal psychology or work in law enforcement, I wouldn't recommend this book (or Doulgas' "Mindhunter")as a study guide. I'm new to the subject, so it was an interesting read for me. However, Douglas has his flaws as a writer,in many cases jumping from one subject to the next for no apparent reason, and at first I thought his tone was a bit too conversational. However, once I forgave those flaws.. I found this book and "Mindhunter" fun to read (altho the books are very similar, no need to read both).After finishing both I felt as though I had just spent an evening with Douglas at a divy bar somewhere listening to his fascinating war stories. Not a bad night out.
Is the review positive or negative?
