Book excerpt: During the early 1980’s Richard Beech, a Vietnam Veteran, is on the run from mobsters due to a failed drug deal. Beech owes them money and leaves Chicago in a mad rush. He hops on an Amtrak train and hours later, while stretching his legs at a rail station stop, he notices a charismatic, young and beautiful girl. He decides to remain here in this small college town, Bearsville, Illinois and figure out how to raise the money he needs to pay off the mob and return to his life in Chicago. In Bearsville, he meets a variety of people while becoming involved in a Lolita-style soulmate affair with Jasmine. While having lunch, he befriends the town’s newspaper editor and then begins interacting with the Bearsville elite including a local motorcycle gang, college students, restaurant personnel and the town’s gay beauty shop owners. Bearsville is a mythical Illinois college town that should be compared with Carbondale, Illinois (Southern Illinois University) and Woodstock, NY .

Download or read book Larceny in the Heart written by R. J. Rushdoony and published by Chalcedon Foundation. This book was released on 2009-11-19 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are the most successful and advanced members of society often deemed to be the criminals? In a word - Envy. The envious man finds superiority in others intolerable, and he wishes to level and equalize all things. Many sociologists and social scientists turn this hatred and resentment into "virtue" under the guise of "social science" by calling it a demand for fraternity and equality. In this concise volume, Rushdoony uncovers the larceny in the heart of man and its results: class warfare and conflict society in which the rise of hostility and envy are seen as steps towards social progress, when in fact they lead to disaster. The political solutions posited lead to a inflationary economy and an overbearing state. This book is a must-read to gain a biblical understand of the underlying tenets of this codified coveting and the only certain long-term cure.

Download or read book Social Learning Theory and the Explanation of Crime written by Ronald L. Akers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social learning theory has been called the dominant theory of crime and delinquency in the United States, yet it is often misrepresented. This latest volume in the distinguished Advances in Criminological Theory series explores the impact of this theory. Some equate it with differential association theory. Others depict it as little more than a micro-level appendage to cultural deviance theories. There have been earlier attempts to clarify the theory's unique features in comparison to other theories, and others have applied it to broader issues. These efforts are extended in this volume, which focuses on developing, applying, and testing the theory on a variety of criminal and delinquent behavior. It applies the theory to treatment and prevention, moving social learning into a global context for the twenty-first century. This comprehensive volume includes the latest work, tests, and theoretical advances in social learning theory and will be particularly helpful to criminologists, sociologists, and psychologists. It may also be of interest to those concerned with current issues relating to delinquency, drug use/abuse, and drinking/alcohol abuse.
Download or read book Larceny in My Blood written by Matthew J. Parker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully illustrated graphic memoir of a child of the '60s who was raised into a life of crime and addiction —but graduated into freedom. Matthew Parker was in his mid-forties when he started college. He’d been sidetracked: Eleven years were eaten up by serving time in various county jails, state penitentiaries, and federal prison. He’d been arrested more than thirty times, racking up eight felonies in a crime career that began at age thirteen, when he started dealing pot. When he got out of prison for the last time and kicked his heroin addiction, he was determined to spend the next chapter of his life in the classroom. And he did just that, going on to complete a master’s degree from Columbia University’s highly competitive creative writing program. Through captivating black-and-white illustrations drawn in a distinctively primitive style, Larceny in My Blood flashes back on Parker's childhood, with memories of a loving but lawless mother teaching him that breaking the law was the way to survive. From there it moves to an account of Parker’s lost decades, where he resorted to petty crime to support a heroin habit. After years of fighting the system, Parker sees the light and Larceny in My Blood becomes a poignant portrait of a man trying to find his way in the straight and narrow. A unique memoir, Parker’s images and words form a mesmerizing road to redemption.
