Ten years after the school massacre at Columbine High School in Colorado, school shootings are a new and alarming epidemic. While sociologists have attributed the trigger of violence to peer pressure, such as bullying and social isolation, prominent psychologist Peter Langman, argues here that psychological causes are responsible.
Drawing on 20 years of clinical experience, Langman offers surprising reasons for why some teens become violent. Langman divides shooters into three categories, and he discusses the role of personality, trauma, and psychosis among school shooters.
From examining the material evidence of notorious school shooters at Columbine and Virginia Tech to addressing the mental states of the violent youths he treats, Langman shows how to identify early signs of homicide-prone youth and what preventive measures educators, parents, and communities can take to protect themselves from the tragedy.
Contains mature themes.

it is my opinion, that even with the most intelligent insightful mind, and the best psychological degree, all the experience of interviewing and dissecting murders (child or not), you may never get to the truth of why someone does what they do. not just because of your own ability to understand and perceive but also because the individuals themselves may not really comprehend, or be able to bring into consciousness the "WHY" of it. added to that mix, is the ability to deceive, shade truths, or choose not to divulge.
better paired w/nonfiction school shooting book
