James Holmes killed or wounded seventy people in a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. Only one man was allowed to record extensive interviews with the shooter. This is what he found. On July 20, 2012 in Aurora, Colorado, a man in dark body armor and a gas mask entered a midnight premiere of The Dark Knight Rises with a tactical shotgun, a high-capacity assault rifle, and a sidearm.

"This is a remarkable book: a symposium proceedings volume that will also function as a graduate-level text. Dedicated to the great theorist S. Chandrasekhar, the book consists of ten well-written chapters that cover the essential tools of theoretical astrophysics. The first half of the volume is concerned with the theory of how stars work (structure, stability, rotation, magnetism, dynamics) and the latter half is mainly a survey of relativistic astrophysics. . . . Read it for a broad-brush view of what theorists are up to now and how they solve problems."—Journal of the British Astronomical Association "The book as a whole should be a gift from every research supervisor to every new graduate student in theoretical astronomy."—D. W. Sciama, Science
'This book builds upon and expands the pioneering work of the late Hervey Cleckley in defining, recognizing, and treating the antisocial personality and related syndromes. This clearly written and engaging volume provides a blend of the latest information on epidemiology, psychobiology of aggression, and other research areas from a biopsychosocial perspective. Clinicians will find the case examples and chapters on therapeutic approaches - including the feelings of the therapist - especially useful in working with this difficult and challenging population.' -Carolyn B. Robinowitz, M.D., Director, Office of Education American Psychiatric Association
