A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Professor Lombroso was able before his death to give his personal attention to the volume prepared by his daughter and collaborator, Gina Lombroso Ferrero (wife of the distinguished historian), in which is presented a summary of the conclusions reached in the great treatise by Lombroso on the causes of criminality and the treatment of criminals. The preparation of the introduction to this volume was the last literary work which the distinguished author found it possible to complete during his finnl illness.] IT will, perhaps, be of interest to American readers of this book, in which the ideas of theM odern Penal School, set forth in my work. Criminal Man, have been so pithily summed up by my daughter, to learn how the first outlines of this science arose in my mind and gradually took shape in a definite work- how, that is, combated by some, the object of almost fanatical adherence on the part of others, especially in A merica, where tradition has little hold, theM odern Penal School came into being.
