This book, the book of criminal minds is no way related to the show. A strict clarification for the many who adore the show,this is unfortunately not like it. It's a nonfiction book with many informative passages about crimes and criminals backstories as well. It tells us in explicit detail about each of the crimes and how they have committed it. It also demonstrates many of the questions that are posed today about different types of criminal industries or masterminds, for example-the origins of the mafia. Furthermore, it includes many humourous occasions in the book and will not bore you. My personal opinion is that this book is informative yet entertaining to me as I do want to see how all these forgeries and robberies were pulled off it helps me visualize many moments in history about historic criminals. There is also information on how to break out of prisons and other tips many iconic felons have left. I personally do not see non-fiction as a type of genre I'd like to read but this book has pulled me in and im deep into the world of crimes. If you'd like to delve deeper as well reading this book will most certainly put you at an advanatge.

A tome.
This covers crimes from the 20th century all the way back in history. If you name a criminal, they are probably in this book. It covers all kinds of crimes from art theft to bizarre murder rituals.

For a book claiming to be about criminal minds, it was not about criminal minds. Instead, it’s just informative on some cases and what happened.

fun, but a bit sloppy on facts and details.
