Strangers On The Street - Serial homicide in South Africa
The first comprehensive study of serial homicide in South Africa is intended primarily for psychologists, students, educators and police officers who require background on the behavioural patterns, motives and other details about serial killers. It is a serious attempt to understand the mind of the serial killer so that he may be identified and apprehended as soon as possible. For, as the author points out, serial killers' prospects of rehabilitation are negative - and they need to be removed from society for the remainder of their lives. Detectives need specific training to investigate serial homicide and Pistorius believes that an understanding of the psychodynamics of serial killers should be extended to state prosecutors, judges, parole officers and pathologists. She also believes that those who work with children need to be aware that all documented cases of serial killers reveal either childhood abuse or neglect and that children displaying antisocial behaviour should be identified and receive counselling. Only in being proactive in preserving the mental health and well-being of children can the double tragedy of serial homicide ultimately be prevented.

An Odyssey of Murder
An Odyssey of Murder is both brutal and shocking, and is sure to stun the reader in its gravest moments as it enters into the mind of a serial killer on the loose on a walking holiday in Britain. The magnificent scenery and the splendour of classical music merge in the psychopathic world of the protagonist. The author's descriptions of murder and the images of corpses are not overtly graphic, yet have a profound and lasting effect. The reader is instantly plunged into the story at the outset and finds himself on the Yorkshire moors, watching open-mouthed as the first murder takes place. The concluding stages, as the net tightens around the suspect, are similarly most unexpected and the narrative draws to a highly satisfactory conclusion. The psychological realism recalls the compulsive power of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood.
The State of Copyright
This book seeks to make an intervention into the ongoing debate about the scope and intensity of global copyright laws. While mapping out the primary actors in the context of globalization and the modern political economy of information ownership, the argument is made that alternatives to further expansion of copyright are necessary. By examining the multiple and competing interests in creating the legal regime of copyright law, this books attempts to map the political economy of copyright in the information age, critique the concentration of ownership that is intrinsic in the status quo, and provide an assessment of the state of the contemporary global copyright landscape and its futures.

Hacia una economía ciudadana
Pretende ser un libro útil, un libro orientado a la acción, que sirva de guía y ayuda a gestores públicos -sean técnicos, directivos o políticos- en su esfuerzo cotidiano para humanizar la economía y darle un sentido ciudadano. Sin embargo, no se trata de un mero manual centrado en los aspectos económicos de la gestión ciudadana, ya que posee una intención política muy clara: mostrar cómo la economía debe estar al servicio de las personas y no al revés. A lo largo de sus páginas, el autor reflexiona, traza líneas de acción e incluso se arriesga a formular algunas propuestas concretas. Las pretensiones de objetividad y cientificidad se han dejado al margen para abordar los problemas que atañen a nuestro mundo más inmediato de una manera subjetiva y comprometida, buscando soluciones que permitan a nuestras ciudades evolucionar hacia unas formas de relación económica más humanizadas, en las que todos, en tanto que ciudadanos y ciudadanas, nos convirtamos en protagonistas de su desarrollo.
