Sons of Cain - A History of Serial Killers from the Stone Age to the Present

In Sons of Cain 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 back into human history and deep into the human psyche, 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.
