The crimes of Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, Dennis Rader, and other high-profile killers are so breathtakingly awful that most people would not hesitate to label them "evil." In this groundbreaking book, renowned psychiatrist Michael H. Stone—host of Discovery Channel’s former series Most Evil—uses this common emotional reaction to horrifying acts as his starting point to explore the concept and reality of evil from a new perspective. In an in-depth discussion of the personality traits and behavior that constitute evil across a wide spectrum, Dr. Stone takes a clarifying scientific approach to a topic that for centuries has been inadequately explained by religious doctrines.Basing his analysis on the detailed biographies of more than 600 violent criminals, Stone has created a 22-level hierarchy of evil behavior, which loosely reflects the structure of Dante’s Inferno. He traces two salient personality traits that run the gamut from those who commit crimes of passion to perpetrators of the worst crimes—sadistic torture and murder. One trait is narcissism, as exhibited in people who are so self-centered that they have little or no ability to care about their victims. The other is aggression, the use of power over another person to inflict humiliation, suffering, and death.Stone then turns to the various factors that, singly or intertwined, contribute to pushing certain people over the edge into committing heinous crimes. They include heredity, adverse environments, violence-prone cultures, mental illness or brain injury, and abuse of mind-altering drugs. All are considered in the search for the root causes of evil behavior.What do psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience tell us about the minds of those whose actions could be described as evil? And what will that mean for the rest of us? Stone discusses how an increased understanding of the causes of evil will affect the justice system. He predicts a day when certain persons can safely be declared salvageable and restored to society and when early signs of violence in children may be corrected before potentially dangerous patterns become entrenched.

This book was much less informative than I had hoped. I am a writer and was hoping to research the psychological complexities of what would cause someone to commit evil acts. I read for hours, took breaks and would come back to it and all the book consisted of, to the point which I read, was rapid fire recitations of evil acts that the author categorized in his own "levels of evil" ranking. This was not helpful to me at all and I can't understand why this content would interest anyone. It's possible that the motivations and drive behind evil acts do make an appearance later in the book but after spending so much time listening to horrific act after horrific act in rapid fire succession ending with the author assigning the crime a number, just wasn't at all what I was looking for. Unfortunately, I gave it enough of a chance that I let the return window close. So I'm stuck with it. I did enjoy the introduction to the chapters with excerpts from Dante's inferno. That is about all that is useful to me from this book. Sincere apologies to the author, who doubtless spent years of research and time categorizing these crimes for this book. Hopefully, it is useful to some others out there. Unfortunately, they were not presented in a way that was interesting or useful to me.
