She is a glamorous model, actress, filmmaker and investigative journalist who has spent years visiting high-security prison, getting to know sadistic killers like Gary Ray Bowles and Keith Hunter Jesperson, 'The Happy Face Killer'. These hardened killers have opened up to her in a way that they would never do to psychiatrists, prosecutors and other authority figures... and have revealed terrifying chapters of their lives that might otherwise have stayed hidden forever. In this chilling book Victoria Redstall shares every detail and insight, bringing the reader up close and very personal with some of the most dangerous and disturbed serial killers that the world has ever seen. In a similar vein to bestseller Talking with Serial Killers this title will undoubtedly appeal to fans of true crime.
Moving beyond the narrow clinical perspective sometimes applied to viewing the emotional and developmental risks to battered children, this book, offers a view that takes into account the complex ways in which a batterer's abusive and controlling behaviors are woven into the fabric of daily life. This book is a guide for therapists, child protective workers, family and juvenile court personnel, and other human service providers in addressing the complex impact that batterers -- specifically, male batterers of a domestic partner when there are children in the household -- have on family functioning.
ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS A comprehensive text on the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering Engineering Applications presents the fundamental principles and applications of the statics and mechanics of materials in complex mechanical systems design. Using MATLAB to help solve problems with numerical and analytical calculations, authors and noted experts on the topic Mihai Dupac and Dan B. Marghitu offer an understanding of the static behaviour of engineering structures and components while considering the mechanics of materials knowledge as the most important part of their design. The authors explore the concepts, derivations, and interpretations of general principles and discuss t...
Often lost in the shadow of the first group of astronauts for the Mercury missions, the second and third groups included the leading figures for NASA's activities for the following two decades. “Moon Bound” complements the author’s recently published work, “Selecting the Mercury Seven” (2011), extending the story of the men who helped to launch human spaceflight and broaden the American space program. Although the initial 1959 group became known as the legendary pioneering Mercury astronauts, the astronauts of Groups 2 and 3 gave us many household names. Sixteen astronauts from both groups traveled to the Moon in Project Apollo, with several actually walking on the Moon, one of the...
Ebook: Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics
Continuing in the spirit of its successful previous editions, the tenth edition of Beer, Johnston, Mazurek, and Cornwell's Vector Mechanics for Engineers provides conceptually accurate and thorough coverage together with a significant refreshment of the exercise sets and online delivery of homework problems to your students. Nearly forty percent of the problems in the text are changed from the previous edition. The Beer/Johnston textbooks introduced significant pedagogical innovations into engineering mechanics teaching. The consistent, accurate problem-solving methodology gives your students the best opportunity to learn statics and dynamics. At the same time, the careful presentation of content, unmatched levels of accuracy, and attention to detail have made these texts the standard for excellence.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Wayne’s father, Calvin Eugene Gene Ford, was a soldier who was stationed in Germany in 1957 when he met Karen. They began dating, and Karen was just sixteen years old. #2 When Karen and Gene were married, she was two months pregnant with Rodney. The ceremony took place in her grandmother’s town, Höchstadt, presided over by the mayor. Karen wore a midcalf dress with a black-and-white floral print. #3 When they were first married, Karen would want to go out dancing, and this caused some barroom incidents because she flirted with other men. One night, Gene told her he needed to go back to the barracks. She said she would stay, and he threw her over his shoulder and dumped her in the car. #4 Karen’s accusation that she got pregnant that night was true. She never said anything about it to anyone until years later. However, the damage had already been done because according to Wayne’s defense team, Karen told him at some point that he was the product of rape.
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 For the past seven weeks, a group of volunteer cavers had been searching for the remains of a missing 19-year-old girl named Erin Corwin, the wife of a Marine. They had narrowed down the search to a group of abandoned mines just outside of Joshua Tree National Park. #2 The last location on the list was a 140-foot deep hole in the shadows of a sheer cliff. The search team had to rig a climbing rope to drop down the center of the mine and avoid touching the walls. #3 Another volunteer, Justin Wheaton, went down the mine another time to get a closer look at the body. He saw what looked like a head and feet, and when he shone the light from his bucket cam down, he saw Erin’s body. #4 The recovery began at sunrise on Sunday, as sheriff’s detectives, deputies, volunteer rescuers, and five firefighters from the elite San Bernardino County Fire Department’s Urban Search and Rescue team made their way to the Mojave.
