Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Caroline Shreeve

This is a thorough and well-written book that delves into the events, causes, and aftermath of the Columbine tragedy. It has been 10 years since the massacre inflicted by Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris, and answers as to why they did it are still murky. There are many misconceptions about that day, and this book does an excellent job of sorting out the truth, and debunking many of the rumors. 13 students died, many were wounded, and Cullen tells their stories. He explores the nature of psychotics and suggests that any thought that this was a revenge killing are completely false. He explores the journals and videos left behind by the killers and gets to an underlying truth, one that is perhaps unsatisfying to those who need a “why?”: they were disturbed, not motivated by the same desires that motivate normal people, and it is quite possible that nothing could have stopped this (save, of course, preventing the easy access to firearms that allowed it to take shape). It is tragedy, but there are tales of hope within. Patrick Ireland, the boy who was seen stumbling out the window, has a story that is downright inspiring. After he was shot, he was unable to walk or speak properly. It looked like he would have permanent brain damage and maybe, if he was lucky, he might be able to walk with a crutch, and the occasional support of a wheelchair. But months and months of hard work and a fierce determination led him to a remarkable recovery and today, he lives a life where his injuries do not define him. Now he walks on his own, and the wheelchair is gone. Reading this, I found myself getting a little pissed at a lot of the people who blamed video games, violent movies, “liberals” and the like for this tragedy. I also got angry at the media for how they picked up and reported the myths, which spread and became like truth. Get past the bullshit. Read this and find out the truth.

As I'm a layperson on the subject matter, (psychology, not Evil- though I hope never to be more than an occasional amateur in that) I'm not able to adequately comment on the scientific or clinical aspects of this topic. My most critical negative comment, however, is that this was what is precisely lacking here. The title presents the subject matter as 'Science of...' but the content was superficial. I appreciated the author's many assertions, and his theory, but I would have liked to see more evidence. I recall that he only cited one original clinical study, and there wasn't enough hard evidence. More investigation is needed, and should be cited. This is not a book for the practitioner. Those caveats behind me I can now go on to my other critical feedback. I largely agree with the framework the author presented for the basis of Evil being the lack of Empathy, in humans, and I believe that Evil is a human construct. I am an atheist who believed that Evil was in some way ignorance, a misdirection that could be carefully remedied through compassionate, persistent care by others. Evil, for me was a ghost, until like millions of others I witnessed the atrocities of the late 20th century. I remain an atheist, but I believe in Evil now, and this is what attracted me to this book. Was there a way to reconcile my ethical judgements and resentments of the actions of many fellow human beings with my humanistic perspective? Was there a solution here for one such as myself, adrift in the universe with only my firm belief in the scientific method to guide me? Perhaps there is, but I want to see more clinical investigation to support this author's theory, this book is a start, and I hope we will see more in a future edition. I genuinely hope he will pursue his interest in this subject and will share his findings. I would like to see some peer reviewed science that is funded by scientific bodies without a biased point of view. There was a lot of social commentary here, and there was a lot of opinion that could have been presented as an appendix. 3 stars, I enjoyed it, but it was television when I wanted a carefully planned and executed documentary.
