He discovered that virtually all suffered severe abuse as children, as well as brain damage and mental illness. In these gripping, terrifying stories, Pincus concludes that violent criminal behavior is the catastrophic product of a dysfunctional brain coupled with an abusive environment. Focusing on these critical factors, how can we prevent the development of potentially violent persons from a young age before the damage becomes irrevocable? And how do we evaluate chances of rehabilitation? -- AUTHOR: Jonathan H. Pincus is chief of neurology at the Veteran's Administration Hospital, Washington, D. C. , and professor of neurology at Georgetown University School of Medicine. -- with a bonus offer-- .
