這是所有立法、執法與司法人員都應該看的書！ 暴力研究專家從大腦中尋找犯罪的可能性，善用生物社會的鑰匙打開犯罪原因的鎖；透過改變大腦改變行為，才能預先防範、對症下藥。 罪惡的種子如何遺傳：追求獎賞的多巴胺就像加速油門，穩定情緒的血清素則是生物剎車，負責調節神經傳導物質的基因不正常，從大腦的基因結構到暴力的化學作用僅有一步之遙。 大腦出錯時有多暴力：反社會行為的大腦是由許多失功能的神經系統湊合而成，在很多暴力犯罪中都看到額葉─邊緣系統的不平衡；或因為缺乏前額葉皮質的調節和抑制衝動情緒，或由於邊緣系統的過度活化以致殘忍殺戮。 更可能因為頭殼壞去：大腦結構的失功能如果來自生命初期的傷害，不管是因為母親懷孕期的不當行為（接觸到酒精、尼古丁、睪固酮、毒品）、分娩併發症、母親拒絕甚至虐待（造成腦傷），都可能造成嬰兒期、童年期和青少年期的神經發展不正常，導致成人暴力犯罪。 環境因素的推波助瀾：缺少鐵、鋅、蛋白質、核黃素和亞米茄三脂肪酸等營養素，卻吃太多甜食，加上過度暴露在鉛、鎘、錳、汞等環境的重金屬中，還有心理健康不良，都是暴力行為的催化劑。 社會生物的交互作用：暴力的生物危險因子??頭部受傷、營養不良及遺傳的反社會基因，如果被其他社會危險因子鼓勵支持??母親的忽略和排斥、遭受虐待與欺凌、極端的貧窮、居住環境惡劣、乏人照顧和缺乏歸屬感，就會釀成嚴重的後果。 解決之道是以治療取代懲罰，透過改變大腦改變行為！ 預防犯罪是防止犯罪的唯一方法，就像維持健康是不生病的唯一方法。善用生物社會的鑰匙打開犯罪原因的鎖，發展出合適的預防、介入方案：比如給予弱勢階層的母親健康常識、教育和支持，提供高風險幼兒充足營養、認知刺激等豐富的生長環境，藉藥物降低罪犯性慾、平息暴力攻擊，甚至從外科手術的去勢法到精神上訓練心智控制大腦。 暴力犯罪是個複雜的行為，每個罪犯背後都有不幸的故事。過去，犯罪學家從社會大環境中尋找犯罪原因，現在，神經學家可以從大腦中尋找犯罪的可能性，知道原因才可以預先防範──融合生物社會學和公共衛生的觀點，也許有一天，我們可以治癒犯罪。名人推薦 這是有關暴力犯罪和神經生物機制之間，最周詳、最直率不誇大的一本書，非常流暢可讀又提供豐富的資訊。作者沒有譁眾取寵說他找到了犯罪的單一原因或單一的解決方法，這是明智之舉，也讓本書成為不可或缺的參考書。──狄馬吉

The National Capital Region of Delhi is a diverse and unequal space. Its more than 30 million people are sharply differentiated by economic class, religion and caste, education, language, and migration status. Its 45,000 square kilometres is a tapestry of spaces - ghettoes, slums, enclaves, institutional areas, planned and unplanned and authorized and unauthorized colonies, forests and agricultural fields. In some ways it is a dynamic society aspiring to global city grandeur; in other ways it is a bastion of tradition, sectarianism and hierarchy. Colossus details these realities and paradoxes under three themes: social change, community and state, and inequality. From the material condition of the metropolis - its housing, services, crime and pollution - to its social organization - of who marries whom, who eats with whom, and who votes for whom - this book unpacks the complex reality of a metropolitan region that is emblematic of India's aspirations and contradictions.
