Summary: Good Research
Comment: This book is good for anyone interested in how serial killers are profiled or come to be. The author correctly points out, too often, that there is little information on female killers. Granted, the number of interviewees is limited, but the author makes that clear but still brings out good detailed information.
There is very little of the actual interviews, primarily because of anonymity agreements between the author and the killers. Still, there are enough tidbits to get the flavor of how the interviews probably went.
The book is not quite as published as other books in the genre. It might have been a polished PhD thesis. Regardless, it is definitely worth a reading. This topic is almost certain to become more significant over the next decade.

Summary: Easy to read and understand
Comment: I'm a psychologist who works with violent girls. I picked this book up because I wanted to see if there were specific behaviors I should be looking for in my practice. Once I read this book, I immediately understood what the doctor was talking about. I am seeing the behaviors discussed in the book in the girls in my practice. I like the way the book was written and would recommend it to other psychologists and social workers who work with violent girls.

Summary: Helped with identifying troubled teens
Comment: I wanted to comment on this book and tell everyone that this is a must read for anyone connected to law enforcement and child guidance. I have worked for 19 years in several facilities for disturbed teenagers. The patterns discussed in this book mirror what I have actually seen and heard from these teens who have committed violent acts with little >or no remorse shown. as you read the New Predators you see as I have seen that some young women can be as fierce and aggressive as young
men when they decide to attack and feel absolutely no remorse for their acts. This book tells it like it is in the real world of the people in the front line, dealing with these increasingly troubled and hostile young people. I fear for what
is coming from these people as they grow older and more adept at covering their tracks.
