Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nelson Algren sought humanity in the urban wilderness of postwar America, where his powerful voice rose from behind the billboards and down tin-can alleys, from among the marginalized and ignored, the outcasts and scapegoats, the punks and junkies, the whores and down-on-their luck gamblers, the punch-drunk boxers and skid-row drunkies and kids who knew they'd never reach the age of twenty-one: all of them admirable in Algren’s eyes for their vitality and no-bullshit forthrightness, their insistence on living and their ability to find a laugh and a dream in the unlikeliest places. In Entrapment and Other Writings—containing his unfinished novel and previously unpublished or uncollected stories, poems, and essays—Algren speaks to our time as few of his fellow great American writers of the 1940s and ’50s do, in part because he hasn’t yet been accepted and assimilated into the American literary canon despite that he is held up as a talismanic figure. "You should not read [Algren] if you can’t take a punch," Ernest Hemingway declared. "Mr. Algren can hit with both hands and move around and he will kill you if you are not awfully careful."

This book was released on 2006-07-19 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coerced confessions have long been a staple of TV crime dramas, and have also been the subject of recent news stories. The complexity of such situations, however, is rarely explored even in the scientific literature. Now in softcover, Interrogations, Confessions, and Entrapment remains one of the best syntheses of the scientific, legal, and ethical findings in this area, uncovering subtle yet powerful forces that often compromise the integrity of the criminal justice system. Editor G. Daniel Lassiter identifies the exposure of psychological coercion as an emerging frontier in legal psychology, citing its roots in the "third degree" approach of former times, and noting that its techniques carry little scientific validity. A team of psychologists, criminologists, and legal scholars asks—and goes a long way toward answering—important questions such as: - What forms of psychological coercion are involved in interrogation? - Are some people more susceptible to falsely confessing than others? - What are the effects of psychological manipulation on innocent suspects? - Are coercive tactics ever justified with minors? - Can jurors recognize psychological coercion and unreliable confessions? - Can entrapment techniques encourage people to commit crimes? - What steps can law enforcement take to minimize coercion? Throughout this progressive volume, readers will find important research-based ideas for educating the courts, changing policy, and implementing reform, from improving police interrogation skills to better methods of evaluating confession evidence. For the expert witness, legal consultant, or student of forensic psychology, this is material whose relevance will only increase with time.

Book excerpt: Blazing with scandal, deception, temptation, and revenge, this third installment in the Twisted series blurs the lines of infidelity and tests the true meaning of love. Sabrina and Luke’s marriage was shattered years ago after the devastating loss of their son. Now homeless and bankrupt, the couple develops a twisted obsession that will either repair their broken vows—or wreck their lives forever. Juggling different women is no simple feat for a bachelor like Jeff Jackson. Yet there’s something extraordinary about Sabrina Montgomery that has him breaking his own cardinal rule. Is he truly over Nadine, or has he walked right into another carefully laid trap? Nadine Collins finds herself torn between her child’s father and a new man in her life. After losing everything in an apartment fire, she moves in with Leonard Dupree, who unexpectedly proposes. It isn’t until their honeymoon night that Nadine and Leonard learn that not all secrets are meant to be kept... Denise Adams, formerly known as Naomi Brooks, has a new lease on life. But before she can get too comfortable, she takes a trip back to Texas to see her terminally ill mother. The scandalous past she left behind greets her with open arms, and some unfinished business turns into an almost fatal reunion with her old flame, Greg Adams. A racy, emotionally charged soap-drama that brings back the characters you both love and hate, Twisted Entrapment will captivate you through the very last page.

Book excerpt: The struggle to write with deep emotion is the subject of this extraordinary book, the previously unpublished credo of one of America's greatest 20th-century writers. "You don't write a novel out of sheer pity any more than you blow a safe out of a vague longing to be rich," writes Nelson Algren in his only longer work of nonfiction, adding: "A certain ruthlessness and a sense of alienation from society is as essential to creative writing as it is to armed robbery." Nonconformity is about 20th-century America: "Never on the earth of man has he lived so tidily as here amidst such psychological disorder." And it is about the trouble writers ask for when they try to describe America: "Our myths are so many, our vision so dim, our self-deception so deep and our smugness so gross that scarcely any way now remains of reporting the American Century except from behind the billboards . . . [where there] are still . . . defeats in which everything is lost [and] victories that fall close enough to the heart to afford living hope." In Nonconformity, Algren identifies the essential nature of the writer's relation to society, drawing examples from Dostoyevsky, Chekhov, Twain, and Fitzgerald, as well as utility infielder Leo Durocher and legendary barkeep Martin Dooley. He shares his deepest beliefs about the state of literature and its role in society, along the way painting a chilling portrait of the early 1950s, Joe McCarthy's heyday, when many American writers were blacklisted and ruined for saying similar things to what Algren is saying here.

Book excerpt: Exciting new book by Ivan S Tuttle, depicting the journey between Heaven & Hell after he died and then came back to life. Never has a book been written quite like this one before, it takes you through the journey of his life up until his death, then it takes you through his death experience and back to life. Maybe one in five-hundred billion can every say they have been to both places after dying. He takes you into the pit of hell where people spoke to him. He will describe the sights and smells of hell, why he was there and why hell couldn't keep him. One of the most interesting part of the book is when he goes to heaven and is greeted by an angel of the Lord, what that angel showed him about the future and what he was supposed to do when he was sent back to earth. There were gifts that God bestowed upon him before leaving heaven. He was ordered not to talk about the experience until the Holy Spirit spoke to him to tell him to start telling people about it. All in all you will find this book to be intriguing with some of the twists and turns in his life and what happened after he died. Very few if any can speak about this subject with authority like he has. Sit back and enjoy reading this unique perspective of heaven and hell, once you start, you won't want to put it down!

Book excerpt: Intertwining the details of Abbie Hoffman's intense personal life with the movement politics of the sixties, seventies, and eighties, Dan Simon writes Abbie's story from the point of view of his younger brother Jack, creating a full and poignant portrait of one of the geniuses of the 1960s counterculture. From the creation of the Yippies! in 1967 and the tumult of the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests, to the humor and agony of the Chicago conspiracy trial, the scandal of Abbie's 1973 cocaine bust, and his six and a half years as a fugitive, to his reemergence as environmentalist "Barrie Freed' and his final struggle with manic-depressive illness, this biography offers a compelling examination of the contradictions that make Abbie Hoffman such a compelling figure. With the information and affection only a brother could bring to the complexities of Abbie's life, Hoffman and Simon portray Abbie's public persona alongside his private aspirations and fears, romances, and enduring family relationships.
