The Problem Of Cain

The Problem Of Cain: A Study On The Treatment Of Criminals is a book written by William Trumbull and originally published in 1890. The book explores the issue of how society should treat criminals, using the biblical story of Cain and Abel as a starting point. Trumbull argues that punishment alone is not an effective solution to crime, and that rehabilitation and education are necessary to prevent recidivism. He also discusses the importance of social and economic factors in the commission of crimes, and the need for society to address these underlying issues. The book is considered a seminal work in the field of criminology and has influenced criminal justice policy and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
