£10.99
DALRYMPLE, THEODORE
Product Details
ISBN: 9781783341207
Author: DALRYMPLE, THEODORE
From Frederick West to a man who murdered his wife because her ear-rings jiggled provocatively, Theodore Dalrymple has spent decades tending as a doctor to Britain's worst prisoners and their victims in the adjoining NHS hospital. He has also worked as a psychiatrist and an expert witness in murder trials.
Lucid, witty, and compassionate, Dalrymple uncovers a topsy-turvy world where:
- Concrete tower blocks become petri-dishes of knife violence.
- Doctors stand as lone figures of authority, while other officials shine by their absence.
