New York: Avon Books, 1993. First Avon Books printing [stated]. Mass market paperback. xv, [1], 219, [5] pages. Bibliography. Index. Slightly cocked. With the help of never-before-released Scotland Yard information, a forensic psychiatrist offers an in-depth portrait of the life and crimes of the notorious nineteenth-century criminal. David Abrahamsen (June 23, 1903 – May 20, 2002) was a Norwegian forensic psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and author who wrote analyses of Jack the Ripper, Richard M. Nixon and David Berkowitz. Abrahamsen suspected Prince Albert Victor and James Kenneth Stephen worked as a collaborating team to commit the Jack the Ripper murders. Extracted from a Publishers Weekly article: Forensic psychiatrist Abrahamsen ( Confessions of Son of Sam ) caps a 10-year investigation by `solving'' the 1888 Jack the Ripper murders. The 80-year-old Norwegian American, who has testified in the Leopold and Loeb, Lee Harvey Oswald and Son of Sam cases, methodically pieces together a `documentary theory'' based on evidence `overlooked by previous investigators,'' including previously unreleased files from Scotland Yard. Abrahamsen asserts that Jack the Ripper was actually two men, Prince Albert Victor Edward (Prince Eddy) and James Kenneth Stephen, Prince Eddy's tutor; his theory centers on misogyny, which he claims motivated their killings of five East End prostitutes. The details of a police cover-up of important evidence stirred debate. More
