    Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. First American Edition. Hardcover. 8vo., xxvi, 313 pages, 26 photographic plates & numerous text tables. Bound in contemporary three-quarter brown Morocco over marbled boards. A beautiful copy, with a bit of mottling to the spine keeping it from being graded very fine. This comprehensive work defines the different genres of criminals, focusing on physical and psychological characteristics and other anomalies specific to female criminals. Lombroso was rare in that he systematically studied female offenders, which for many years before and after were ignored by criminological researchers. However, much of the outrageous pronouncements that typify his views of (male) offenders are also levied towards women who engage in antisocial conduct.
