A brilliant, no-nonsense profile of the criminal mind, newly updated in 2022 to include the latest research, effective methods for dealing with hardened criminals, and an urgent call to rethink criminal justice from expert witness Stanton E. Samenow, Ph.D. “Utterly compelling reading, full of raw insight into the dark mind of the criminal.”—John Douglas, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Mind HunterLong-held myths defining the sources of and remedies for crime are shattered in this groundbreaking book—and a chilling profile of today’s criminal emerges. In 1984, Stanton Samenow changed the way we think about the workings of the criminal mind, with a revolutionary approach to “habilitation.” In 2014, armed with thirty years of additional knowledge and insight, Samenow explored the subject afresh, explaining criminals’ thought patterns in the new millennium, such as those that lead to domestic violence, internet victimization, and terrorism.Since then the arenas of criminal behavior have expanded even further, demanding this newly updated version, which includes an exploration of social media as a vehicle for criminal conduct, new pharmaceutical influences and the impact of the opioid crisis, recent genetic and biological research into whether some people are “wired” to become criminals, new findings on the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy, and a fresh take on criminal justice reform. Throughout, we learn from Samenow’s five decades of experience how truly vital it is to know who the criminals are and how they think. If equipped with that crucial understanding, we can reach reasonable, compassionate, and effective solutions.From expert witness Dr. Stanton E. Samenow, a brilliant, no-nonsense profile of the criminal mind, updated to include new influences and effective methods for dealing with hardened criminals

Druhá kniha obsahuje tři samostatné příběhy - Zlou noc, Hříšníky a přelomový díl Poslední z nevinných - v jednom balení spolu s mnoha bonusy, články, kresbami, které vám dají nahlédnout do zákulisí vzniku, a komiksy, které ještě nikdy nebyly otištěny. Jacob Kurtz, kreslíř a bývalý padělatel, muž, který byl kdysi obviněný z vraždy vlastní manželky, a vůbec člověk s problematickou minulostí, se stává zajatcem ve svém vlastním domě - i zajatcem svých vlastních nevysvětlitelných reakcí. Připadá si, jako by se po něm natahovala nejasná, snově průhledná chapadla jeho vlastních dávných činů - a teprve ve chvíli, kdy ho pevně omotají a utáhnou se, Jacob zjistí, jak moc jsou skutečná. Tracy Lawless, válečný veterán a armádní dezertér, se v minulém CRIMINALu dostal do střetu s šéfem místního podsvětí - a kupodivu se mu povedlo při tom nezemřít. Ale happy end se nekoná: Tracy je totiž nucen odpracovávat si u Sebastiana Hydea dluh svého bratra… a jelikož je rozený Lawless, tak dokonce i taková zdánlivě jednoduchá funkce nemyslícího zabijáka se pro něj postupně stane něčím, čím dokáže zkomplikovat život sobě i všem okolo. Riley Richards, rodák z malého městečka Brookview, jemuž se díky šikovnému sňatku podařilo vyšplhat po sociálním žebříku mezi bohaté a mocné, vypadá na první pohled jako typický americký slušňák, který dostal všechno, po čem toužil: krásnou ženu, postavení, peníze… Jenže už druhý pohled odhalí, že to s tou krásnou ženou a penězi není tak horké, jak se zdá - a pokud se dopustíme i třetího, ještě pronikavějšího pohledu a podaří se nám proniknout za Rileyho charismatickou fasádu, spatříme, že se za ní plazí věci, které se k typickému americkému slušňákovi nehodí. Ani trochu.

Dva klasické batmanovské příběhy, jejichž společným jmenovatelem (kromě hvězdného autorského obsazení) je jedna z největších Nemesis temného rytíře: věčně usmívavý Joker. Muž, který se smál – Ed Brubaker (Criminal) a Doug Mahnke (Maska) stvořili příběh prvního Batmanova setkání s Jokerem, přímo navazující na komiks Batman: Rok jedna. V městě Gotham se začínají objevovat mrtvá těla s démonickým úsměvem. Na scénu vstupuje muž s bílou tváří, zelenými vlasy a širokým úsměvem a začne určovat, kdo a kdy zemře. A pokud ho Batman nezastaví, bude jeho další obětí. Kameňák – Co všechno člověk snese, než zešílí? Jak málo stačí, aby se z vás stalo monstrum? To řeší ten nejslavnější příběh s Batmanem v hlavní roli, temné dílo kultovního Alana Moora (Strážci, V jako vendeta) a perfektního kreslíře Briana Bollanda. Kameňák je příběh, který změnil celý batmanovský svět a který se sám stal kánonem – a teď u nás poprvé vychází v barvě!

Dylan je obyčejný, depresemi sužovaný vysokoškolák – dokud veškeré jeho představy o světě nezmění neúspěšná sebevražda… a nevyšle ho na nedobrovolnou dráhu maskovaného mstitele. Newyorské policii netrvá dlouho, než pochopí, že jim přímo vprostřed metropole maskovaný člověk zabíjí zločince, a sestaví vyšetřovací tým, který ho má chytit. A Dylan se mezitím propadá stále hlouběji do temnoty, do níž ho zavedla zvrácená smlouva uzavřená s démonem… „Zabíjej pro mě, nebo budeš zabit.“Poté, co si komiksoví tvůrci Ed Brubaker a Sean Phillips při svém putování temnými žánry vyzkoušeli noir realisticky špinavý (CRIMINAL) i hollywoodsky klasický (ZATMÍVAČKA), lovecraftovskou variaci (FATALE), špionážní retro (VELVET) i odvrácenou stranu superhrdinského mýtu (SLEEPER, INCOGNITO), upřeli svou pozornost na další způsob archetypálního vyprávění: příběh samozvaného mstitele, násilně bojujícího se zlem zakořeněným v lidské společnosti. Ale nečekejte další variaci na Charlese Bronsona v Přání smrti – Dylan, hlavní hrdina ZABIJ, NEBO BUDEŠ ZABIT, je o něco realističtější, o dost sofistikovanější… a o hodně problematičtější.

'What grammarians say should be has perhaps less influence on what shall be than even the more modest of them realize ...' No book had more influence on twentieth-century attitudes to the English language in Britain than Henry Fowler's Dictionary of Modern English Usage. It rapidly became the standard work of reference for the correct use of English in terms of choice of words, grammar, and style. Much loved for his firm opinions, passion, and dry humour, Fowler has stood the test of time and is still considered the best arbiter of good practice. In this new edition of the original Dictionary, David Crystal goes beyond the popular mythology surrounding Fowler's reputation to retrace his method and arrive at a fresh evaluation of his place in the history of linguistic thought. With a wealth of entertaining examples he looks at Fowler's stated principles and the tensions between his prescriptive and descriptive temperaments. He shows that the Dictionary does a great more than make normative recommendations and expressprivate opinion. In addition he offers a modern perspective on some 300 entries, in which he shows how English has changed since the 1920s. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

It features previously unpublished drawings and photographs from the extraordinary archives of Danzig Baldaev and Sergei Vasiliev. During his lifetime as a guard in St Petersburg's notorious Kresty Prison, Baldaev diligently recorded over 3,000 criminals' tattoos and their coded meanings.His drawings form a unique gallery; a passport into a hidden world of shovel-faced politicians, fornicating devils, messages tangled in barbed wire. Tattoos on hands, feet, legs, torsos, foreheads, eyelids, buttocks and genitals all take their place in this fascinating document of a rapidly disappearing criminal society, where history, status and even sexual preference are indelibly etched on the body.

How a convergence of policy, law, and profit drives the use of criminal background checks in hiringMost employers in the United States routinely conduct criminal background checks on job applicants, weeding out those with criminal convictions—and thus denying opportunities to those who need them most. In this powerful analysis, Melissa Burch sheds light on one of the most significant forces of social and economic marginalization of our time—discrimination on the basis of criminal records. Chronicling the daily interactions of hiring managers, workforce development professionals, and job-seekers with felony convictions in Southern California, Burch shows that this discrimination is not simply a matter of employer bias. Hiring is shaped by a set of institutions, organizations, and industries that promote the erroneous idea that people with criminal records are dangerous to employ. This “criminal record complex,” as Burch names it, encourages exclusion and undermines employers’ common-sense ways of assessing candidates. In vivid and intimate detail, Burch reveals both the futility and devastating human consequences of discriminatory policies. Burch places today’s routine practice of background screening within racialized notions of risk originating in early capitalist development, tracing how, over decades, criminal background checks became a convenient catch-all, leveraged by entities with a direct interest in growing the practice. Despite this reach, however, Burch discovers that small business owners tend to put less value on background checks, trusting their own judgment. Approaching the issue from both personal and policy perspectives, The Criminal Record Complex upends what we thought we knew about the causes of criminal record discrimination. It suggests that our best hope for creating safe workplaces lies not in the false promise of background screening, but in building the kinds of economies and communities that support true safety.

But as the climb unfolded, what began as a daring expedition quickly became a test of survival.Joined by fellow climbers Ben, Beetle, Arron, and their guide Bigraj, Ed faced extreme conditions—treacherous glaciers, near-misses, and snowstorms that prevented the team from summiting.

The astonishing follow-up to 2018''s Kolyma Stories.In 1936, Varlam Shalamov, a journalist and writer, was arrested for counterrevolutionary activities and sent to the Soviet Gulag. He survived fifteen years in the prison camps and returned from the Far North to write one of the masterpieces of twentieth-century literature, an epic array of short fictional tales reflecting the years he spent in the Gulag. Sketches of the Criminal World is the second of two volumes (the first, Kolyma Stories, was published by NYRB Classics in 2018) that together constitute the first complete English translation of Shalamov’s stories and the only one to be based on the authorized Russian text. In this second volume, Shalamov sets out to answer the fundamental moral questions that plagued him in the camps where he encountered firsthand the criminal world as a real place, far more evil than Dostoyevsky’s underground: “How does someone stop being human?” and “How are criminals made?” By 1972, when he was writing his last stories, the camps were being demolished, the guard towers and barracks razed. “Did we exist?” Shalamov asks, then answers without hesitation, “I reply, ‘We did.’”
