  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  Nothing can be more terrifying than knowing the streets are being prowled by a twisted serial killer. To be a female of a certain age and profession on the streets of 19th century London, with the knowledge that one of your clients could be Jack the ripper himself. 
   
  There were many more Jack the Rippers in the world. 
   
  Every human has a capacity for good or evil. We are all dark and light. This has been known for thousands of years. It has been written, preached and symbolised across the world. 
   
  Just as there are those in history who have stood out for their compassion and good works, there are also those who have become infamous for their propensity to evil. From serial killers who murder one human after another to dictators who order mass genocide upon their own citizens - evil knows no bounds. 
   
  But what is it that creates these people? Is there an inbuilt genetic lock inside awaiting the turning of a key? Or are these people the result of their life experiences? Does abuse by parents play a key role? Does society itself have to answer for the actions of the murderers that it creates? 
   
  It is time to delve deep into the world and mind of serial killers and discover why they kill.

  Pierre Bourdieu - Fieldwork in...

  “The wide range of subjects . . . provides a glimpse of the extent to which Bourdieu’s theories of culture have gained widespread currency in the humanities.” —David Eick, SubStance   The work of Pierre Bourdieu, one of the most influential French intellectuals of the twentieth century, has had an enormous impact on research in fields as diverse as aesthetics, education, anthropology, and sociology. Pierre Bourdieu: Fieldwork in Culture is the first collection of essays to focus specifically on the contribution of Bourdieu’s thought to the study of cultural production. Though Bourdieu’s own work has illuminated diverse cultural phenomena, the essays in this volume extend to new cultural forms and to national situations outside France. Far from simply applying Bourdieu’s concepts and theoretical tools to these new contexts, the essays in this volume consider both the possibility and limits of Bourdieu’s sociology for the study of culture.  “Worth the attention of those who seek to become familiar with Bourdieu or to engage with a more well-rounded familiarity with the usefulness of his social theory.” —Christopher Lindsay Turner, MFS Modern Fiction Studies  “This sparkling and unusually coherent collection of essays emphasizes the American reception and adaptation of Bourdieu’s work. It shows how Bourdieu has been resisted and embraced and discusses how his terms and methods might be both used and modified by American academics. Theoretical reflections are productively complemented by empirical investigations of non-canonical and popular artistic expressions and by discussions of the position of women in Bourdieu’s thought.” —Marshall Brown, University of Washington
