  True crime with a Midwest twist. The award-winning writer recounts the stories of Ohio's most notorious vixens, viragoes, and villainesses. 
   
   
   
  The Buckeye State produced its share of wicked women. Tenacious madam Clara Palmer contended with constant police raids during the 1880s and '90s. Only her death could shut the doors of her gilded bordello in Cleveland. Failed actress Mildred Gillars left for Europe right before World War II. Because she fell in love with the wrong man, she wound up peddling Nazi propaganda on the radio as "Axis Sally." Volatile Hester Foster was already doing time at the Ohio State Penitentiary when she bashed in the head of a fellow inmate with a shovel. The sinister Anna Marie Hahn dosed at least five elderly Cincinnati men with arsenic and croton oil and then watched them die in agony while pretending to nurse them back to health.

  The Albigensian Crusade - Heresy...

  The Cathars emerged as one of the most distinctive and controversial religious movements of medieval Europe, particularly in the Languedoc region of modern-day southern France. Rooted in dualist beliefs, the Cathars rejected many of the core teachings of the Catholic Church, viewing the material world as the creation of an evil force and striving for spiritual purity. Their growing influence in the 12th and 13th centuries alarmed both the Church and secular rulers, eventually leading to their violent suppression during the Albigensian Crusade. 
  The origins of Catharism can be traced to earlier dualist traditions, particularly those of the Bogomils in the Balkans. These beliefs likely spread into western Europe through trade routes and missionary activity, finding fertile ground in the tolerant and prosperous culture of Languedoc. Cathar teachings were based on a stark division between the material and spiritual realms. They believed that the physical world was ruled by a malevolent force, often associated with Satan, while the true God presided over the spiritual world. This view led them to reject the Catholic Church, which they saw as corrupt and complicit in the worship of the material. Unlike the Church, which emphasized hierarchical structure, the Cathars maintained a simpler, more egalitarian approach to religious life. 
  Cathar society was structured around two primary groups: the Perfects and the Believers. The Perfects, considered the spiritual elite, led austere lives dedicated to prayer, fasting, and celibacy. They followed strict moral codes, renouncing wealth and worldly pleasures in pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. Believers, while not held to the same rigorous standards, supported the Perfects and aspired to receive the consolamentum, a ritual that purified the soul before death. Cathars rejected many Catholic sacraments, including baptism by water, believing instead in a form of spiritual baptism.

  Addiction - A Very Short...

  Addiction is a subject which straddles public and personal interests; societal and criminal justice concerns; and family, social, and medical responses. It is a continuing area of uncertainty and concern for society and professionals trained in the field. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction presents the basic facts about addiction: what it is, how and why it develops, how it is treated, and how society can respond to it. Addictions to both illicit drugs and licit drugs (e.g., alcohol) are covered, as is the possibility that certain behaviors not involving drug use (e.g., compulsive gambling) can qualify as addictions. Keith Humphreys provides a jargon-free account of our present understanding of addiction, from treatment evaluations to studies on the effects of public policies. He also illuminates the personal experience of addiction and recovery. Humphreys considers why some people become addicted and others do not, what treatments exist to help people who are addicted, and how the laws and regulations society establishes about drugs affects the rate and experience of addiction.
