The Encyclopedia of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List - Over Fifty Years of Convicts Robbers Terrorists and Other Rogues

Duane Swierczynski

Sinopse

In 1949, a crime reporter looking for a way to fill a column published the nation’s ten worst criminals as classified by the FBI: two accused murderers, four escaped convicts, a bank robber, and three confidence men.” In addition to the stark black and white photos that accompanied the article, the public was most moved by the idea that law enforcement was asking them for help. Fired up by the gesture of confidence, Americans banded together to wholeheartedly support the motion, leading to tips that helped facilitate the capture of the advertised criminals. Some of those on the list even surrendered voluntarily due to the increased publicity. The rogues’ gallery showcases fugitives such as: William Raymond Nesbit, first on the list to be captured James Earl Ray, assassin of Martin Luther King Jr. Ted Bundy, ruthless serial killer Ruth Eisemann-Schier, kidnapper and first woman to make the Top Ten Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, 1993 World Trade Center bomberThis encyclopedia includes criminals’ photographs, crime details, and interesting fugitive facts” as well as a brief history of the list and what it has accomplished in more than fifty years.

Cammy Hollows, Erica Showdown,...

You are about to get a combo deal of 21 different books! These are the topics the books are all about:
Topic 1: There is no doubt about the fact that introverts are different than extroverts.

Topic 2: There is an entire psychological premise defended by theorists, therapists, and philosophers who are either for or against relying on intuitive senses to make decisions in life. Those two contradictions will be laid out here as well.
Topic 3: In this book, we will go over the essence of self-love, what it means, what it can mean to you in your personal life, your relationships, and so many other areas.
Topic 4: When you know what you are like – and believe me, many people don’t know themselves very well – you are more likely to be content in life, find success, discover hidden talents, avoid pitfalls, and become happier in general.
Topic 5: Some people have developed a knack for feeling compassion or empathy for other people. To others, it comes naturally.
Topic 6: This book has the intention to open your eyes to the world of possibilities if you can feel the positive energy flow through your body and spirit.
Topic 7: The contents of this book will guide you along to a variety of topics related to high sensitivity. They range from the simple basics of what makes someone a highly sensitive person to the connection between high sensitivity and autism, the attraction of narcissists, tips to stop worrying, and how to face rejection without getting hurt.

The Unreality of Memory - And...

Elisa Gabbert

We stare at our phones. We keep multiple tabs open. Our chats and conversations are full of the phrase "Did you see?" The feeling that we're living in the worst of times seems to be intensifying, alongside a desire to know precisely how bad things have gotten—and each new catastrophe distracts us from the last.The Unreality of Memory collects provocative, searching essays on disaster culture, climate anxiety, and our mounting collective sense of doom. In this new collection, acclaimed poet and essayist Elisa Gabbert explores our obsessions with disasters past and future, from the sinking of the Titanic to Chernobyl, from witch hunts to the plague. These deeply researched, prophetic meditations question how the world will end—if indeed it will—and why we can't stop fantasizing about it.Can we avoid repeating history? Can we understand our moment from inside the moment? With The Unreality of Memory, Gabbert offers a hauntingly perceptive analysis of our new ways of being and a means of reconciling ourselves to this unreal new world.
