A brisk, lucid portrait of a pivotal mind. A study in ambition, science, and the habits of a century trying to understand itself. Hans Kurella's Cesare Lombroso; A Modern Man Of Science offers more than a biography; it is a rigorous biographical study that reads like a page-turning history of ideas.

Produktbeschreibung
A brisk, lucid portrait of a pivotal mind. A study in ambition, science, and the habits of a century trying to understand itself. Hans Kurella's Cesare Lombroso; A Modern Man Of Science offers more than a biography; it is a rigorous biographical study that reads like a page-turning history of ideas. The book traces Lombroso's methods, questions, and critiques, placing his work within the larger arc of historical science analysis and the wider discourse on crime and heredity. It invites readers to consider how scientific inquiry, evidence, and interpretation intersect in the late nineteenth century, especially within the Italy fin de siecle climate that shaped modern criminology. This edition is not merely a republication; it is a restoration and reintroduction of a landmark in criminal anthropology classics. Alpha Editions recovers a text that for decades lay out of print, making it accessible to today's students, researchers, and curious readers alike. It functions as a vital research resource for scholars while remaining approachable for undergraduate criminology reading and for classical-literature collectors alike. The book also offers a thoughtful critique of the scientific method as it was then practised, including thoughtful comparisons such as the Galton Lombroso discourse that still resonates in debates about evidence and inference. A compelling blend of biography, history, and methodological reflection, this volume remains a cultural treasure for those who value precise, humanistic enquiry into the origins of criminology.
