Excerpt from The Psychology of the Criminal
My main object has been to demonstrate how im portant is the thorough examination of the individual offender, especially in regard to his mentality. It is only by a great extension of this line of investigation that we can hope to solve the problems which criminality presents.
A considerable part of the book is devoted to that new development of psychology which is known as psycho-analysis, and to the possible applications thereof to the investigation and treatment of offenders. I have included a brief description of the theory and technique of psycho-analysis, so that the reader may not have to look elsewhere for an explanation of technical terms.

Excerpt from The Psychology of the Criminal
This book is based upon twenty-three years experience in local and convict prisons, and more particularly upon the work which I have done, during the past three years, with offenders from Courts in Birmingham and the adjacent districts.

There is much in psycho-analysis which is still highly controversial. And it would be quite impossible to write a book on this subject with which all would agree. But I have endeavoured to state fairly and dispassionately the views which I hold. And I do not think that I have made any dogmatic statements which would not be accepted by some eminent exponents of psycho-analysis.
