Acerca de esta escucha

From the author of Serial Killers: The Method and Madness of Monsters comes an in-depth examination of sexual serial killers throughout human history, how they evolved, and why we are drawn to their horrifying crimes.

Before the term was coined in 1981, there were no "serial killers." There were only "monsters" - killers society first understood as werewolves, vampires, ghouls and witches or, later, Hitchcockian psychos.

In Sons of Cain - a book that fills the gap between dry academic studies and sensationalized true crime - investigative historian Peter Vronsky examines our understanding of serial killing from its prehistoric anthropological evolutionary dimensions in the pre-civilization era (c. 15,000 BC) to today. Delving further back into human history and deeper into the human psyche than Serial Killers - Vronsky's 2004 book, which has been called "the definitive history of the phenomenon of serial murder" - he focuses strictly on sexual serial killers: thrill killers who engage in murder, rape, torture, cannibalism and necrophilia, as opposed to for-profit serial killers, including hit men, or "political" serial killers, like terrorists or genocidal murderers.

These sexual serial killers differ from all other serial killers in their motives and their foundations. They are uniquely human and - as popular culture has demonstrated - uniquely fascinating.

Not bad

there's a lot of information going on in this book, but unfortunately for the length of this book not everything can be dived into deeply. it's really unfortunate that the author didn't go too deep with certain serial killers let alone not mention some of the more infamous killers in American history. I was actually surprised that he did not discuss Carl panzram. overall I was pleased with the book

Obvious political biases aside, still a good book

Obvious political biases aside, still a good book. No need to allow political affiliation to enter into the book in the final chapters, otherwise this was a well compiled, and presented account of the subject matter.

Interesting but questionable research

The author has some seriously fascinating theories and I was fascinated by the cases laid out. but in the last chapter he referenced a case that was local to me and his info was so basically wrong it made me question the authenticity of everything else he wrote. Hint: there's no such place as "West Mesa, NM". Anyway, it's also extremely graphic. This book seems almost like one of the pulp men's crime magazines he blames so much of the serial killer phenomenon on. I recommend it for critical thinkers who can listen to the authors general theories while not taking it as factual science.

Interesting?

Lists, lists, and more lists! Vronsky really has an affinity for list making, he also seems to have a real love of deep dives into different "philias"-- such as necrophilia, a big one covered at great length through this book. Rape is also another subject to be aware of being included in this book, its talked about quite a bit, and in an uncomfortable
way in my opinion.

This one wont be for everyone. I honestly don't think it was even for me, but I bought it and have had it on the shelf so was determined to give it a chance.

Entertaining and informative

I loved this fascinating look at the main sexual psycopathic serial killers from the stone age through to the 70's/80's.
The author gives us fascinating insights into the individual, as well as the historical, social, political and cultural context which may have influenced them at the time. I found the theories on how WW2 may have helped to form the prolific number of killers in the 70s and 80s, thought provoking and astute. If the account sounds weighty and inaccessible, it certainly is not. I enjoyed this book thoroughly.The narrator deftly delivered just the right tone at the right time throughout.
