Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 20, 1999, was an ordinary school day for students at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado. Classrooms were full of students finishing their last assignments before final exams. When the bell rang for the first lunch period, some went outside to enjoy the warm weather, but minutes later, the sound of gunfire pierced the peaceful spring day. At 11:19 A.M., two students, Eric Harris and Dyland Klebold, unleashed a long-planned murderous assault on their fellow classmates at Columbine, leaving twelve students and one teacher dead before taking their own lives. Author Judy L. Hasday carefully examines one of the worst incidents of school violence in American history, including accounts from witnesses and survivors.

Download or read book Free Market Madness written by Peter A. Ubel and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2009-01-20 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans just aren't entirely rational creatures. We decide to roll over and hit the snooze button instead of going to the gym. We take out home loans we can't possibly afford. And did you know that people named Paul are more likely to move to St. Paul than other cities? All too often, our subconscious causes us to act against our own self-interest. But our free-market economy is based on the assumption that we always do act in our own self-interest. In this provocative book, physician Peter Ubel uses his understanding of psychology and behavior to show that in some cases government must regulate markets for our own health and well-being. And by understanding and controlling the factors that go into our decisions, big and small, we can all begin to stop the damage we do to our bodies, our finances, and our economy as a whole. Ubel's vivid stories bring his message home for anyone interested in improving the way our society works.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh welcomes you to a remote town on the edge of the world where even the blinding brightness of the sun can’t mask the darkness that lies deep within a killer.… On the rugged West Coast of New Zealand, Golden Cove is more than just a town where people live. The adults are more than neighbors; the children, more than schoolmates. That is until one fateful summer—and several vanished bodies—shatters the trust holding Golden Cove together. All that’s left are whispers behind closed doors, broken friendships, and a silent agreement to not look back. But they can’t run from the past forever. Eight years later, a beautiful young woman disappears without a trace, and the residents of Golden Cove wonder if their home shelters something far more dangerous than an unforgiving landscape. It’s not long before the dark past collides with the haunting present and deadly secrets come to light.

Download or read book A Curious Madness written by Eric Jaffe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond 'all vestiges of doubt,' concluded a classified American intelligence report, 'Okawa moved in the best circles of nationalist intrigue.' Okawa's guilt as a conspirator appeared straightforward. But on the first day of the Tokyo trial, he made headlines around the world by slapping star defendant and wartime prime minister Tojo Hideki on the head. Had Okawa lost his sanity? Or was he faking madness to avoid a grim punishment? A U.S. Army psychiatrist stationed in occupied Japan, Major Daniel Jaffe--the author's grandfather--was assigned to determine Okawa's ability to stand trial, and thus his fate. Jaffe was no stranger to madness. He had seen it his whole life: in his mother, as a boy in Brooklyn; in soldiers, on the battlefields of Europe. Now his seasoned eye faced the ultimate test. If Jaffe deemed Okawa sane, the war crimes suspect might be hanged.
Download or read book The Axis of Madness written by Roger Jackstone and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 1295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is not like anything that’s ever been written. Hopefully, it’s not too disturbing that it drives those who need to read it away. Its subject is sex and abortion, which have become politically divisive since Roe, and the Right and Left fighting over the solution to problems caused by sexual repression are portrayed as wings of the beast, working together like the ratchet and cogs of a medieval rack. Also the thread is compressed; it covers a wide range of topics and branches from the story line to make points in many places. The book’s intention is to warn people the path the elite have us on leads to disaster. It does it in four parts; the first establishes the framework, and the others are a dream sequence by the central character Thomas Warden, an attorney who prosecutes sex criminals and has political ambitions. In the beginning, his intentions are pure. The evil he fights against is real, and it needs to be stopped, but he, like most people, doesn’t realize that Satan has found a way into the world, that Satan is smarter than him, and that he’s being used.
