Book Synopsis A Criminal History of Mankind by : Colin Wilson
Download or read book A Criminal History of Mankind written by Colin Wilson and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2015-05-17 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “immensely stimulating story of true crime down the ages” tells the history of human violence, from Peking Man to the Mafia (The Times, London). This landmark work offers a completely new approach to the history and psychology of human violence. Its sweep is broad, its research meticulous and detailed. Colin Wilson explores the bloodthirsty sadism of the ancient Assyrians and the mass slaughter by the armies led by Genghis Khan, Tamerlane, Ivan the Terrible, and Vlad the Impaler. He delves into modern history, exploring the genocides practiced by Stalin and Hitler. He then takes a chilling look into the sex crimes and mass murders that have become symbols of the neuroses and intensity of modern life. With breathtaking audacity and stunning insight, Wilson puts criminality firmly in a wide, illuminating historical context. “A work of massive energy, compulsively readable, splendidly informative . . . it establishes Wilson in a European tradition of thought that includes H. G. Wells, Sartre and Shaw.” —Time Out London “A tremendous resource for crime buffs as well as a challenging exposition for some of the more subtle criminological thinking of our time.” —Kirkus Reviews
Book Synopsis A Plague of Murder by : Colin Wilson
Download or read book A Plague of Murder written by Colin Wilson and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2015-08-23 with total page 741 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned criminologist and author of The Outsider delivers a penetrating study of serial killers as a uniquely modern phenomenon. In this fascinating study, Colin Wilson explores the roots of the serial killer mindset, and the origins of this terrifying modern personality. The term "serial killer" is still relatively new, coined by the FBI to describe those who murder repeatedly and obsessively, usually with a sexual motive. Who are these killers? What social and psychological pressures drive them to their crimes? Can we understand and learn to predict their behavior? Wilson offers revealing profiles of some of the most infamous killers in modern history: from Jack the Ripper to Jeffrey Dahmer, the monster of Milwaukee; Reginald Christie to Dennis Nilsen, who killed for company; the Boston Strangler to Donald Gaskins, who murdered more than 100 victims; as well as Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker and many more.

Book Synopsis Discerning Crime: Psychological, Forensic & Legal Aspects by : Arun Kumar
Download or read book Discerning Crime: Psychological, Forensic & Legal Aspects written by Arun Kumar and published by Asian Press Books. This book was released on 2023-01-30 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is gradually disintegrating as crime is at an unprecedented high. Crime is rampant in today's society and appears in all civilizations and cultures. Crime has austere costs and detrimental effects on the physical, social and psychological affluence of people globally. The biggest contributor to crime in the world is individuals who participate in frivolous and trivial acts in order to sustain themselves. In the contemporary world of crime, forensic science has advanced to the point where it can positively identify offenders. Since justice plays a significant part in crimes and punishment, it is bewildering and has transcendental value. Additionally, legal provisions compel criminals to be jittery, tumid, and contemptible and also oblige criminals to anticipate consequences beforehand. In this book, a multidisciplinary approach to identifying crime and comprehending the psychological, forensic, and legal components of the crime is taken into consideration. It gives insights of crime in the contemporary era and furthermore provides knowledge of modern tools and techniques involved in solving crime of discrete types. This book holistically explores the different approaches to understanding crime and its impact on the modern world. This book investigates the societal structures and processes affected by crime in a comprehensive way.
Download or read book Daughter of Ashes written by Ilaria Tuti and published by Soho Press. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the idyllic mountains of Northern Italy, the latest volume in Ilaria Tuti’s gripping series is a tour de force, a poignant and irresistible story about the relentless pull of the past on the present. Superintendent Teresa Battaglia, a trail-blazing criminal detective on the Italian police force, is on sick leave, recovering from her recent brush with death in pursuit of a killer. But none of her colleagues, not even her partner, know that her Alzheimer’s is getting worse, and that Teresa is unsure she will ever return to work. Teresa’s plans for retirement are shelved, however, when she is urgently summoned to meet with menacing serial killer Giacomo Mainardi. Refusing to speak with anyone but Teresa, whose investigative work twenty-seven years prior landed him in maximum security prison, Mainardi has disconcerting news: somebody is after him, and only Teresa holds the key to keeping everyone, including herself, safe. To solve the case, Teresa must come face to face with a history she thought she’d buried, back to when Giacomo first began to kill, and Teresa—newly pregnant and married to an abusive man—did everything she could to catch him.

Download or read book Lethal Repetition written by Richard Dyer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serial killing is an extremely rare phenomenon in reality that is none-theless remarkably widespread in the cultural imagination. Moreover, despite its rarity, it is also taken to be an expression of characteristic aspects of humanity, masculinity, or our times. Richard Dyer investigates this paradox, focusing on the notion at its heart: seriality. He considers the aesthetics of the repetition of nastiness and how this relates to the perceptions and anxieties that images of serial killing highlight in the societies that produce them. Shifting the focus away from the US, which is often seen as the home of the serial killer, Lethal Repetition instead examines serial killing in European culture and cinema – ranging from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean and from Britain to Romania. Spanning all brows of cinema – including avant-garde, art, mainstream and trash – Dyer provides case studies on Jack the Ripper, the equation of Nazism with serial killing, and the Italian giallo film to explore what this marginal and uncommon crime is being made to mean on European screens.
