The general audience has learned about profiling relatively recently, and with the easy hand of writers and filmmakers today it is associated with a lot of myths, speculations and tall tales. The book by professional profiler Anna Kulik gives a glimpse into this exciting world of nerves and imagination. She tells about the history of profiling and how its methods are used in modern conditions, including in business, allows you to learn how psychopaths differ from sociopaths and what factors influence the formation of a serial killer. In addition, Anna reveals the details of the profiler's work, illustrating the narrative with examples and interesting stories from her own practice. Before you is not just a portrait gallery of the worst maniacs and psychopaths and not a dry criminological study, but an interesting psychological and documentary essay. At the same time, the author, delving deeply into the biographies of famous criminals: "Bittsevsky maniac" Pichushkin, "Angarsk maniac" Popkov, Chikatilo, Mikhasevich, Spesivtsev, Tkach, Golovkin, Mokhov, Iskhakov, Kabanov, Sokolov and others - does not at all justify them. On the contrary, in the book they appear neither as heroes nor as mysterious villains with deep philosophy and great ideas. We see them as they really are - weak, narcissistic, incapable of compassion.
