Description
"A major revision of the best-selling Murder in America, this Second Edition examines both common and unusual acts of homicide in light of society's changing norms, values, attitudes, and customs. The authors, Ronald and Stephen Holmes, have worked with numerous police departments on more than 300 murder and rape cases. They have authored a variety of books and written many articles addressing topics such as serial killers, sex crimes, profiling, drug testing, probation and parole issues, and violent crime. By using their students as consultants while writing both editions of the book, the authors have ensured that Murder in America offers a fascinating yet practical analysis of homicidal acts."--BOOK JACKET.
