| Summary | "Psychology and Crime" by Thomas Holmes is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work explores the intricate relationship between psychological conditions and criminal behavior, seeking to shed light on the often-overlooked mental and physical afflictions affecting individuals within the prison population. The author, drawing on his extensive experience with London's criminal courts and prisoners, aims to advocate for more humane and understanding treatment of those who are deemed criminals. At the start of the book, Holmes presents a preface that emphasizes the urgent need for the public and authorities to recognize the underlying mental and physical health issues among prisoners. He explains that despite ongoing reports by prison officials noting these afflictions' significant role in criminal behavior, little meaningful action has been taken to reform the treatment methods for affected individuals. He criticizes the existing penal system and expresses his passionate hope for reforms that consider the broader mental health challenges that contribute to criminal behavior, laying the groundwork for the themes that will unfold in the subsequent chapters.
