6.99 €
Broadmoor is a maximum-security hospital that houses some of Britain's most dangerous criminals suffering from mental illness. This institution has at various times housed the Stockwell Strangler Kenneth Erskine, the Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe, cannibal Peter Bryan, London gang leader Rorrie Cray and other serial killers, robbers and rapists. This book, written by TV journalist Jonathan Levy and art historian Emma French, focuses on the history, inhabitants and workers of Broadmoor. The authors have spent years studying archives, talking to doctors, patients, and hospital staff, and their publication is the most comprehensive study about this grim place. For what reason did people commit the terrible acts that brought them to Broadmoor? Could the best specialists cure them? How does the inner life of a hospital that looks more like a ghost town work? This book introduces Broadmoor's past, present and future, revealing the reality behind the myth.
