Excerpt from The Criminal Classes, Causes and Cures In the preparation of this work, it has been the design of the author, and the expressed purpose of the publisher, to make a popular book - a book in language, style, and compass within the grasp of the common reader. The aim has also been to present a book full of interest and information for the more careful student of sociology, psychology, and criminology. In a book, however, of the size presented, it must not be expected that exhaustive treatises be given on any or all of the several types of criminal life, or upon the causes and cures thereof. Much important matter, therefore, for the complete study of the subject must be omitted here. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Crime and the Treatment of the Criminal The object sought to be accomplished by the reformatory system of punishment is the same as that in the system of deterrence, in so far as the latter kept any object in view. In theory, at least, both have in view the protection of society. The difference in the two systems, then, is not in the object sought to be accomplished, but in the methods and instruments used. Deterrence seeks to eliminate the criminal by wholes-ale executions, and to frighten others into obedience to law. The reformatory system would also eliminate the criminal, not by putting him to death, but by assist ing him to remove his anti-social instincts and tendencies, and re storing him to society an honorable and useful citizen.

Excerpt from The Criminal Classes, Causes and Cures Over a score of years have recorded themselves in Time's book since the author of this volume first became identified officially with the criminally delinquent classes. Since then, by observation, association, and diligent research, he has carefully studied the various types of criminal life. Inside opportunities have enabled him to gather many facts and note many incidents which furnish material for interesting and instructive narratives, and form opinions regarding the origin and nature of, and remedies for the several classes of crime, obtainable in no other way. With the material gathered and the information obtained, I have consented to put them in book form, in response to many requests and encouragements from those having knowledge of the same, among which is the following prompting from Prof. W. 0. Krohn, of the University of Illinois : My Dear Friend: It makes me very happy to know that you are going to work over into book form the immense amount of material that you have acquired on the criminal classes... Do not give up the work because of the arduous nature of the task before you. You owe it to the sociological world to give it the benefit of your immense fund of material and experience. I shall look forward to the book with great pleasure.

Excerpt from Prisons, Police and Punishment: An Inquiry Into the Causes and Treatment of Crime and Criminals Changes no doubt are coming, and better social conditions. Meanwhile, however, it is necessary that our treatment of the Criminal should be an aid to progress, and not an obstruction - as it so often is to-day. Mr. Charlton T. Lewis, President of the National Prison Association of the United States, has said that to consign a man to prison is commonly to enrol him in the criminal class (see Appendix C). But surely, if we are to have prisons at all, their action and result ought to be just the opposite. I have ventured to indicate in the first few chapters of this little book some of the reforms in Prison management and Criminal procedure which are most needed, and which might at once be pressed forward; and in the Note at the end of Chapter IV I have made a list of these. Coincident changes must no doubt also take place in our Police-system, and to these I have alluded in Chapter V. Finally, since there is a growing feeling on all hands, especially among advanced officials and criminologists, that prisons and pun ishment are in their present form outworn, and productive of as much harm as good, I have endeavoured (in Chapter VI) to sketch a state of affairs in which the whole system of government by violence will lapse and become antiquated, leaving society free to shape itself by voluntary methods according to its own good sense: feeling assured that if society has good sense it will be able to shape itself in this way, and if it has not there does not appear much likelihood at present of its rulers being able to supply the deficiency.

Excerpt from The Treatment of Crime It requires no philosopher to inform us that the punish ment of the crime rarely cures the criminal. It would seem to be a self-evident proposition that what is needed is not so much punishment of the crime, though this be necessary, as the reformation of the criminal.

Excerpt from The Cause and Cure of Crime HE invitation to publish this book fur nishes an occasion for urging afresh the improvement of our city police stations and county jails, which were so severely condemned by the last International Prison Congress. The nation which originated the Reforinatory and the Juvenile Court, and which has devel oped the parole system and probation of adults, has yet to learn and feel how its honor is sullied by our local prisons. Recent discus sions and experience require new emphasis on psychological laboratories in schools, courts, reformatories, and prisons; on work colonies for alcoholics and degraded misdemeanants; on a better legal basis for prison regulations; on reform of the police to save them from corruption in unholy alliance with the social evil, and to train them for the fine calling of prevention of crime; and on the readjustment of the criminal law and procedure to make them conform to the requirements of modern knowledge of the criminal character.

Crime, Its Causes and Remedies is a work of criminology by author and Professor of Criminal Anthropology, Cesare Lombroso. Lombroso was a professor at the Italian University of Turin, and thus all of his works were written in Italian. This book, translated by Henry P. Horton, was not released in English until after Lombroso's death. It was selected by the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology for translation and deemed vitally important in the understanding of crime and criminals. Part one examines the factors that contribute to crime, paying more attention to the individual than to environmental factors. Part two looks at ways in which crime can be reduced and avoided, highlighting both effective and ineffective measures that have been used. Part three applies the lessons of the first two parts to propose a detailed system for dealing with crime and criminals, from the penalties that criminals should face to the appropriate institutions they should be held in. If nothing else, Crime, Its Causes and Remedies is a case study on how far a field of science can progress in 100 years. Much of the content of this book is hopelessly out of date and many of the theories forwarded in this book would be highly controversial if presented today, including equating epileptics and criminals, and the heavy reliance on racial profiling. This book is valuable mostly for the historical insights it provides into criminology and moral attitudes rather than as a source of textbook knowledge about the subject.

Excerpt from Rationale of Crime, and Its Appropriate Treatment: Being a Treatise on Criminal Jurisprudence Considered in Relation to Cerebral Organization The Trustees having perused Letters upon 'crimi nal Jurisprudence in relation to Mental Organization, ' by M. B. Sampson, Esq., are of opinion that their ex tensive circulation, in a cheap form, would tend to pro mote 'the Advancement and Diffusion of the Science of Phrenology, and the Practical Application thereof in particular, ' (the objects of Mr. Henderson's Trust be quest, ) and therefore resolve to print and publish an edition of them, in double columns, at a price which may bring them within the reach of all classes of the community. The edition thus published, which, from its low price, was necessarily in a close and pamphlet-like shape, is now exhausted; and its reception from the public and the press has been such as to lead to the publication of the work in a more complete and perma nent form.
