Book Synopsis Violent Death in the City by : Roger Lane
Download or read book Violent Death in the City written by Roger Lane and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Lane uses the statistics on violent death in Philadelphia from 1839 to 1901 to study the behavior of the living. His extensive research into murder, suicide, and accident rates in Philadelphia provides an excellent factual foundation for his theories. A computerized study of every homicide indictment during the sixty-two years covered is the source of the most detailed information. Analysis of suicide and accident statistics reveals differences in behavior patterns between the sexes, the races, young and old, professional and laborer, native and immigrant, and how these patterns changed overtime. Using both these group differences and the changing overall incidence of the three forms of death, Lane synthesizes a comprehensive theory of the influences of industrial urbanization on social behavior. He believes that the demands of the rising industrial system, as transmitted through factory, school, and bureaucracy, combined to socialize city dwellers in new ways, to raise the rate of suicide, and to lower rates of simple accident and murder. Finally, Lane suggests a relation between these developments and the violent disorder in the postindustrial city, which has lost the older mechanisms of socialization without finding any effective new ones. Original and probing, Lane's combination of statistics and theory makes this a significant new work in social, urban, and medical history.

Download or read book Murder Suicide Or Accident written by Faye B. Ball and published by . This book was released on 2004-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a fictional book based on actual events that took place in our lives and the lives of our families. It is a story of two people who had completely drifted apart, virtually overnight. Roger's wife Sandra turning into someone none of us knew. She was throwing her life away, a life her and her husband had invested twenty-five years in. Only she knew for what. The lies she told about her husband always had a motive. She wanted everything, and if it took cheating and lying, so be it. Sandra wanted people to believe Roger was abusing her, so people would feel sorry for her. It also would pave the way for her to even try and kill Roger and have an alibi. But as she told her daughter it had all backfired on her. Abuse is a word most times relating to women and children, but sometimes it's just a word nothing more. It was used a lot in the lives of our friends, but most of it was lies. People change, not always for the good. They say and do horrible things to each other. Even by accident, I hope you can understand the love one man had for his wife and the price they both paid. The changes Sandra went through; made no sense until we realized there was another man in her life. A lot of lives would have been changed and a lot of hearts would not have been broken. In the end we were all left with empty hearts and bitterness. No matter how much we uncovered it still didn't help us when we needed answers. That is why Only God Knew
Book Synopsis Murder, Suicide Or Accident by : Bernard Knight
Download or read book Murder, Suicide Or Accident written by Bernard Knight and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What exactly does a forensic pathologist do? Written under a pseudonym by a practising full-time forensic pathologist and ex-Home Office consultant, the "inside story" is given for the first time of this macabre, yet vital profession which contributes to keeping Britain a country with one of the lowest murder rates in the world. However, murder, although the topic which attracts all the publicity, is the smallest part of the function of a forensic pathologist. The major part of his work concerns the investigation of other causes of sudden death - accidents, suicides and natural disease. These pages show how the community is best served by the careful reconstruction of traffic, domestic and industrial accidents and the documentation of natural diseases which adds to the sum total of preventive medical knowledge. In spite of the relative rarity of murder investigations, a large part of the book is devoted to details of how the pathologist goes about his examination of the scene of a crime, the identification of the victim and the interpretation of the common methods of homicide. The author shows how specialised medical experience assists in the reconstruction of deaths, whether it be by bullet, knife or rope, and he describes the salient features of death associated with sexual crimes, abortion and infant deaths. Praise for Murder, Suicide or Accident: 'A host of incredible stories' - The Evening News 'The information is accurate... and readable.' - The Pathology Review Professor Bernard Henry Knight (born 1931) is a celebrated pathologist and author of over more than 30 novels and television scripts. After becoming a Home Office pathologist he remained in his role for 43 years, conducting over 25,000 autopsies and assisting with some of Britain's most notorious murder cases, including the Fred and Rosemary West murders and the first cases to use DNA for evidence of identity. In 1980 he was appointed as Professor of Forensic Pathology at the University of Wales College of Medicine.

Download or read book 50 Ways to Die written by Jerry L. West and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 50 Ways To Die is a compendium of death and sometimes violent crimes occurring in the county, and the social trends that surround them. West’s research centered on records of Coroner’s Inquest and microfilm of the newspaper, Yorkville Enquirer, both of which are archived at the History Center in York. The inquests records had not been studied until West began his research which coincided with members of the staff and volunteers were indexing. A great deal of appreciation is extended to Archivist Nancy Sanbet, her staff and the several volunteers who assisted. And a special thank you to Miles Gardner who gave the idea for this book by his Murder and Mayhem in Old Kershaw. This book gives accounts of murders, suicides, accidental deaths and gruesome infanticides, ending in 1929. West has randomly extracted more than twenty murders, some of which are still retold in local kitchens and living rooms. The list includes the 1929 chilling murder of Faye Wilson King by her husband, Rafe. This murder brought national publicity to the small western York County town of Sharon. Also included is the 1922 murder of playing children by a man angry over water in Clover, and the brutal murder of Johnny Lee Good in 1888. People of York County have murdered over women, food, liquor, money, slander and unpaid bills and they did it with planks, bare hands, guns, knives and even ironing boards. Sometimes these occurred on the spur of the moment with overheated blood and sometimes with cold calculation. While most crimes were white on white or black on black, the subject of race has been excluded expect in cases where mentioning it was for clarification. One thing is clear in many of these cases, justice came to some, and the times were certainly not safe for minorities, the poor, and children.

Book Synopsis Suicide and Mental Health by : Rudy Nydegger
Download or read book Suicide and Mental Health written by Rudy Nydegger and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delving into a topic of perennial interest and concern, particularly among teenagers, this important volume addresses the full range of issues related to suicide and suggests ways to help those who struggle. While the risk of suicide is increasing across age groups, the good news is that with timely intervention, most suicides are preventable. Written primarily for high school and college students as well as for their teachers and parents, this guide combines relevant research and theories about suicide with current clinical thinking and approaches to diagnosis and treatment. Going beyond the clinical, the volume also explores suicide in history and in popular culture and examines relevant cultural, religious, moral, and ethical viewpoints. It looks at suicide among various demographic groups, probes psychological motivations and methods used, and discusses the controversy surrounding a person's right to die. What differentiates this work from others is that it covers the breadth of the subject but also considers issues in enough depth to make their importance and complexity clear. Readers will better understand the problem of suicide, its impact, and the approaches that can be used to prevent suicide and deal more effectively with at-risk individuals.

Download or read book Fatal Freedom written by Thomas Szasz and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2002-08-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatal Freedom is an eloquent defense of every individual’s right to choose F a voluntary death. By maintaining statutes that determine that voluntary death is not legal, Thomas Szasz believes that our society is forfeiting one of its basic freedoms and causing the psychiatric medical establishment to treat individuals in a manner that is disturbingly inhumane. Society’s penchant for defining behavior it terms objectionable as a disease has created a psychiatric establishment that exerts far too much influence over how and when we choose to die. In a compelling argument that clearly and intelligently addresses one of the most significant ethical issues of our time, Szasz compares suicide to other practices that historically began as sins, became crimes, and now arc seen as mental illnesses.
