This book explores the development of criminology from its philosophical roots in the 18th century through to the "Positive School" founded in 1872 and the modern era of scientific criminology. The author traces the evolution of theories on crime and punishment, from the Classical School's emphasis on deterrence to the modern focus on understanding the criminal's motivations and circumstances. The book discusses various biological, sociological, and psychological theories of crime, including the work of Lombroso, Ferri, and Garofalo. It also examines the role of factors such as mental illness, substance abuse, and environmental conditions in criminal behavior. By providing a comprehensive overview of criminology's historical and theoretical foundations, this book offers valuable insights for anyone interested in understanding the complex causes of crime and developing effective prevention and rehabilitation strategies.
