Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely and significant examination of how Black athletes have used their influence to create meaningful change and reform for Black Americans. In the age of social media, athletes have a powerful influence like never before. Many Black athletes have used that power in positive ways, galvanizing their platforms to create impactful educational opportunities, donate to Black social causes, and raise political awareness on important issues. In The Black Athlete Revolt: The Sport Justice Movement in the Age of #BlackLivesMatter, Shaun M. Anderson examines the Black athlete’s rise in advocating for social justice and how today’s athletes have moved beyond protesting to create substantial change for Black Americans. Anderson reflects on the history and evolution of Black athlete activism, breaking down its importance during the civil rights movement, the commodification of athletes during the 1990s, and how twenty-first century athletes have utilized their wealth and influence to create lasting societal change in the age of #BlackLivesMatter. With fascinating portraits of notable individuals in the history of Black activism, as well as insights from athletes and allies who discuss the future of athlete activism, The Black Athlete Revolt reveals the ever-evolving and crucial role of Black athletes beyond the world of sports.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Award–winning editor Otto Penzler's latest anthology takes its inspiration from the historical enigma whose name has become synonymous with fear: Jack the Ripper. Of the real-life serial killers whose gruesome acts have been splashed across headlines, none has reached the mythical status of Jack the Ripper. In the Ripper's wake, terror swept through the streets of London’s East End in the fall of 1888. As quickly as his nightmarish reign came, Saucy Jack vanished without a trace—leaving future generations to speculate upon his identity and whereabouts. He was diabolical in a way never seen before—a killer who taunted the police, came up with his own legendary monikers, and, ultimately, got away with his heinous crimes. More than a century later, the man “from hell” continues to live on in the imaginations of readers everywhere—and in some of the most spectacularly unnerving stories, both fiction and nonfiction, ever written. The Big Book of Jack the Ripper immerses you in the utterly chilling world of Red Jack’s London, where his unprecedented evil still lurks. Including: · Legendary stories by Marie Belloc Lowndes, Robert Bloch, and Ellery Queen · Captivating essays from George Bernard Shaw, Stephen Hunter, and Peter Underwood · Riveting new stories by contemporary masters Jeffrey Deaver, Loren D. Estleman, Lyndsay Faye, and many more · Astonishing theories from the world’s foremost Ripperologists From the Ripper Vault: · Demonic letters from Jack himself · Gruesome postmortem exams documenting all the bits and pieces of the cases · Harrowing witness statements taken on those hellish nights · Breaking newspaper accounts of the East End hysteria

It contains a wealth of new and previously unpublished material with a detailed look at the possible candidates and probable identity, examinations of the murder sites (then and now), the psyche of the murderer and the murdered, the alleged ghosts and spirit contacts and a survey of all writings on the Ripper and his victims - published and unpublished. This is the definitive book, with a 100 year perspective.

They include the publican who painted his dog, the first woman sentenced to the electric chair, the writer of the Red Flag, the man with a thousand convictions, Britain’s oldest Prime Minister, and many others. People from all walks of nineteenth century life, representing many different nationalities and professions. United by a link, however tenuous, to the most famous murderer in history.

Download or read book The Final Analysis written by Keith McCarthy and published by . This book was released on 2016-08-27 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The convicted serial killer, Melchior Pendred, spent the final years of his life dying in prison for five identical murders. He slit the victims' throats, eviscerated the bodies and scattered the organs at the scene of the crime. But that was buried in local history until a sixth murder is committed. The body of Jenny Muir is discovered in the same fashion but with the supposed killer now dead, panic sets in...Martin Pendred, Melkior's twin, identical in appearance, personality and work life, is propelled into the spotlight. Like his brother he worked first in an abattoir, then as a mortuary assistant and was only discounted of the original murders by an alibi. Did the police convict the wrong brother? Pressure rises in the force as Chief Inspector Homer returns to his original hypothesis that his colleague, Beverley Wharton, caught the wrong man. Martin Pendred is arrested but released on a technicality after the intervention of his solicitor, Helena Flemming. Then Martin disappears and another murder takes place. What's left to do but to call in John Eisenmenger? A former pathologist, Eisenmenger worked on the original murders and his finely honed skills could make all the difference to this nerve-wracking case. Indeed he soon begins to guess what is going on, but it is not until danger threatens Helena Flemming that he is able to find and fit the last terrible piece of the killer's puzzle. Praise For Keith McCarthy "Chilling and challenging, though the pat conspiracy behind Proteus keeps this sequel from rising to the demanding level of Helena and Eisenmenger's grimly brilliant debut." - Kirkus Reviews "I have one word for Keith McCarthy's John Eisenmenger series and that word is 'INTENSE'. Everything, from the murders, the characters, the scenery, and the sex are all incredibly, dark, graphic and intense. However, if you can get past the extremity of the series, the stories are very compelling and incredibly intriguing. The characters are complex and McCarthy does a fantastic job of character development throughout the series." - A Thrill A Week 'Readers who don't get enough strong forensic medicine from the likes of Patricia Cornwell or Kathy Reichs ... will welcome this first book in a new series from a British pathologist ... McCarthy lays on the grisly detail with a practising doctor's detached eye.' Publishers Weekly 'Richly gothic ... uses the classic whodunit format of a closed circle of suspects to good effect. There's a giddy feeling to the story when we lurch from moments of black farce to savage coincidence ... a potent mix.' Tangled Web 'Pathologist McCarthy creates a dark, densely imagined world in the demanding tradition of P. D. James ... he peoples it with characters who truly inspire pity and terror, and provides the most unsparing postmortem ever.' Kirkus Reviews 'A whodunit in the classical mould mixes the story of a man coping with the scars of his past and the wounds of the present ... McCarthy handles his material with real brio.' Crime Time Keith McCarthy is a pathologist and writer of crime fiction, known for his Eisenmenger-Flemming Forensic Mysteries. He also writes under the name Lance Elliot.

Book excerpt: ** SHORTLISTED FOR THE CWA'S ALCS GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION ** In 1985, Peter Everett landed the job as Superintendent of Southwark Mortuary. In just six years he'd gone from lowly assistant to running the UK's busiest murder morgue. He couldn't believe his luck. What he didn't know was that Southwark, operating in near-Victorian conditions, was a hotbed of corruption. Attendants stole from the dead, funeral homes paid bribes, and there was a lively trade in stolen body parts and recycled coffins. Set in the fascinating pre-DNA and psychological profiling years of 1985-87, this memoir tells a gripping and gruesome tale, with a unique insight into a world of death most of us don't ever see. Peter managed pathologists, oversaw post mortems and worked alongside Scotland Yard's Murder Squad - including on the case of the serial killer, the Stockwell Strangler. This is a thrilling tale of murder and corruption in the mid-1980s, told with insight and compassion.

This book was released on 2016-06-05 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Africans care a lot about crime. We think and worry about it, plan and insure against it, develop and share theories about it, read about it, and talk about it... a lot. But how much do we really know? Crime statistics do not belong to the government, academics, specialists, or the press. They are ours: we experience and report crimes and have a right to access and understand their official record. It should not take any particular expertise to get a grasp on what we should make of the figures and graphs that the South African Police Service produces every year. A Citizen's Guide to Crime Trends in South Africa provides a basis on which to understand the statistics in a manner that is accessible to everyone. Each chapter challenges a set of oft-repeated assumptions about how bad crime is, where it occurs, and who its victims are. It also demonstrates how and why crime statistics need to be matched with other forms of research, including criminal justice data, in order to produce a fuller account of what we are faced with.
