Synopsis

The book ""Necessity Of Popular Education, As A National Object: With Hints On The Treatment Of Criminals, And Observations On Homicidal Insanity"" was written by James Simpson in 1834. The author argues that popular education is essential for the progress and prosperity of a nation. He provides hints on how to treat criminals and suggests that educating them could prevent them from committing crimes in the future. Simpson also discusses homicidal insanity and offers observations on the subject.
