Human psychological and physical well-being is damaged and destroyed when people are deliberately killed by other people. There are millions of primary and secondary victims of murder throughout the world, and human society as a whole is a tertiary victim of murder. Despite this, people are often fascinated and engrossed by stories of homicide and killers. This book provides a fascinating exploration of murder, providing an insight into what leads people to kill and what effect this has on society as a whole. This book is organized into five chapters that each answer a specific question on murder: <ul> <li> What is Murder? <li> Who Commits Murder? <li>Why Commit Murder? <li>Why is Murder Devastating? <li>Why is Murder Fascinating? </ul>
