Book Synopsis Mass Murder in the United States by : Grant Duwe
Download or read book Mass Murder in the United States written by Grant Duwe and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is mass murder a historically new phenomenon that emerged in the 1960s? How has it changed over time? And what causes a person to commit multiple murders in a matter of hours or even minutes? This book explores these questions by examining 909 mass murders that took place in the United States between 1900 and 1999. By far the largest study on the topic to date, it begins with a look at the patterns and prevalence of mass murders by presenting rates from 1900-1999 and by describing the characteristics of mass killers. Placing the phenomenon within the broader social, political, and economic context of the twentieth century, the work examines the factors that have influenced trends in the prevalence of mass murder. It also discusses more than 100 case studies within three distinct periods of mass murder activity (1900-1939, 1940-1965, and 1966-1999) to illustrate more clearly the motives of mass murderers and the circumstances surrounding their crimes. The final chapters take a look at media coverage and the role it has played in the social construction of mass murder.

Book Synopsis God and the Little Grey Cells by : Dan W. Clanton, Jr.
Download or read book God and the Little Grey Cells written by Dan W. Clanton, Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-16 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dan W. Clanton, Jr. examines the presence and use of religion and Bible in Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot novels and stories and their later interpretations. Clanton begins by situating Christie in her literary, historical, and religious contexts by discussing “Golden Age” crime fiction and Christianity in England in the late 19th-early 20th centuries. He then explores the ways in which Bible is used in Christie's Poirot novels as well as how Christie constructs a religious identity for her little Belgian sleuth. Clanton concludes by asking how non-majority religious cultures are treated in the Poirot canon, including a heterodox Christian movement, Spiritualism, Judaism, and Islam. Throughout, Clanton acknowledges that many people do not encounter Poirot in his original literary contexts. That is, far more people have been exposed to Poirot via “mediated” renderings and interpretations of the stories and novels in various other genres, including radio, films, and TV. As such, the book engages the reception of the stories in these various genres, since the process of adapting the original narrative plots involves, at times, meaningful changes. Capitalizing on the immense and enduring popularity of Poirot across multiple genres and the absence of research on the role of religion and Bible in those stories, this book is a necessary contribution to the field of Christie studies and will be welcomed by her fans as well as scholars of religion, popular culture, literature, and media.

Book Synopsis Murder of an Irish Song by : William A. Dougherty
Download or read book Murder of an Irish Song written by William A. Dougherty and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007-11-09 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salem, Massachusetts Police Detective Brian Rooney is returning from vacation at his childhood home on Nantucket Island, when he is called to the Salem Hospital to investigate the grizzly homicide of a legendary folksinger. The murder victim, Johnny Dwyer, appears to have lived a life of secrecy, shrouded in fear and addiction, masked by charm, wit and talent. He also leaves behind a twisted history that closely touches two of Vermonts leading citizens -- a dedicated female state senator who is a strident advocate for the mentally ill, and an iron-willed entrepreneur, whose control of Vermonts economic development for decades has left him cautiously admired, but with few friends. The ensuing investigation becomes an intriguing web of curious and colorful people who were touched by Dwyer and had reasons to wish him dead an arrogant and foulmouthed real estate developer, an angry woodcutter, and a not so scrupulous business partner. Rooney enlists the help of Dwyers sister, a world-class athlete with whom he later becomes romantically linked. He also befriends Peter Wilson, a former Vermont state trooper, who is haunted by his painful memories as a cop which he attempts to erase daily with alcohol and pills. Wilson leads Rooney through the details of an unsolved bank robbery committed three decades ago. Wilson is called to reopen the investigation and has a growing suspicion that the 1963 robbery is linked to Dwyers murder. Set primarily in the mountains of Southern Vermont and on the north shore of Massachusetts, the story elements converge with a visit to Vermont of the wife of the Vice President of the United States, leading to an explosive conclusion that cannot be predicted.
