What Criminal Profiling Tells Us About Ourselves

from All Of It with Alison Stewart · host WNYC

Criminal profiling is one of the most famous tools in our crime-fighting arsenal, and probably our least understood. In her new book, The Monsters We Make: Murder, Obsession, and the Rise of Criminal Profiling author Rachel Corbett writes about how it got its start in Victorian England, the first attempts by profilers to codify psychological patterns, and what profiling reveals, and what it obscures. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
