War and Crime The Education of Exceptional Children Genius in the Making

Abstract

Formerly professor of criminal law in Berlin and a judge in the German Court of Criminal Appeal, later Leon research fellow and lecturer in criminology in the University of London, he is almost uniquely equipped to discuss the problems he has taken up.
