Infos

In "Crime and Its Causes," William Douglas Morrison delves into the intricate interplay of sociological, psychological, and economic factors that contribute to criminal behavior. Through a rigorous examination of the historical context of crime, he employs a rich literary style that combines empirical analysis with compelling narrative, making complex theories accessible to a broad audience. Morrison's interdisciplinary approach places the book within the framework of early 20th-century criminology, a time marked by significant societal shifts and the burgeoning understanding of human behavior. Morrison, an accomplished sociologist and criminologist, was influenced by the dynamics of his time. His background in the social sciences and a keen interest in the sociopolitical landscape allowed him to critically engage with issues of morality, justice, and societal norms. His firsthand experiences observing urban life and crime in America fueled his desire to explore the root causes behind criminal acts, leading to the insightful treatise presented in this work. This book is essential for anyone interested in criminology, sociology, or psychology. Morrison's ability to bridge theoretical frameworks with real-world implications makes "Crime and Its Causes" not only informative but also urgent in its relevance.
