Who are the men committing the rising number of serial homicides in the U.S. -- and why do they kill? The increase in these violent crimes over the past decade has created an urgent need for more and better information about these men: their crime scene patterns, violent acts, and above all, their motivations for committing these shocking and repetitive murders.This authoritative book represents the data, findings, and implications of a long-term F.B.I.-sponsored study of serial sex killers. Specially trained F.B.I. agents examined thirty-six convicted, incarcerated sexual murderers to build a valuable new bank of information which reveals the world of the serial sexual killer in both quantitative and qualitative detail. Data was obtained from official psychiatric and criminal records, court transcripts, and prison reports, as well as from extensive interviews with the offenders themselves.Featured in this book is detailed information on the F.B.I.'s recently developed Violent Criminal

Macroeconomics offers a modern and comprehensive introduction to the tools and methods that define contemporary graduate training in the field. Written for first-year PhD students and advanced MA/MS students, the book provides a rigorous yet accessible foundation in dynamic optimization, recursive methods, competitive equilibrium, stochastic modelling, and welfare analysis. It emphasizes clarity and intuition, guiding readers through the logic of intertemporal decision-making that underlies modern macro theory. A key feature of the text is its explicit connection to data. Throughout the book, theory is used to interpret empirical patterns, illustrating how macroeconomic models help us understand real-world behavior and policy-relevant facts. Quantitative and computational tools are integrated throughout to show how models are taken to the data. The book develops frameworks with heterogeneity and frictions, including incomplete markets, borrowing constraints, labor-market search frictio

How is AI transforming the ways society decides what is true? Algorithms now go beyond detecting misinformation. They operate with agentic reasoning, identifying patterns, evaluating credibility, and shaping how truth is defined. Algorithmic Fact-Verification: Methods and Ethics explains how human judgment and machine intelligence intertwine in the creation of trust and credibility. It examines the social and moral consequences of giving AI an active role in verification, offering an accessible and thought-provoking account of how AI fact-checking is reshaping journalism, knowledge, and democracy in the digital age. Moving beyond the technicalities of misinformation detection, Shin analyzes how truth is produced, governed, and contested in the algorithmic age. Through a synthesis of communication theory, cognitive epistemology, and science and technology studies, we trace fact-checking's evolution from a reactive journalistic practice into an automated, infrastructural system endowed w

How Western nutrition science defined difference as disease in modern China. For more than a century, Western observers have treated Chinese foodways as evidence of deficiency, danger, or backwardness. In Nutritional Imperialism, Hilary A.Smith shows how these assumptions entered the heart of modern nutrition science and reshaped understandings of health, diet, and difference. Nutrition scientists, physicians, and policymakers presented Western dietary patterns as universal benchmarks of health and transformed ordinary physiological variation into signs of pathology. Beginning in the late nineteenth century, Western researchers compared Chinese diets to Euro-American norms and framed rice-based, low-dairy, and low-meat eating patterns as evidence of weakness.Over time, these judgments hardened into scientific claims about vitamin deficiency, protein insufficiency, lactose intolerance, and alcohol metabolism—each treated as a disorder requiring intervention. The book follows these ideas
