Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The story of wine, one of the foundations of Western Civilization, is the story of religion, medicine, science, war, discovery and dream. The essential historical background and the key developments in the history of wine through the ages are outlined in this compact, engaging, easy-to-read and well-illustrated text, with lists of top vintages. For thousands of years wine mixed with water was the safe drink. It was a key ingredient of medications. The antiseptic properties of the alcohol it contains saved lives. Wine was associated with many religious rituals, some of which survive today. The story of wine involves scientists like Hippocrates of Kos, Zaccharia Razi, Isaac Newton (albeit indirectly), Louis Pasteur, and many others. It also involves colorful people such as Gregory of Tours and Eleanor of Aquitaine. Vines made their way to the Americas with the Conquistadores. Then wines almost disappeared in the late 1800s as Phylloxera spread throughout the world. This scourge was followed by World War I, the Great Depression, Prohibition, and World War II. Today, winemaking has enjoyed a renaissance and many excellent and affordable wines are produced throughout the world.Stefan K. Estreicher is Paul Whitfield Horn Professor of Physics at Texas Tech University. His fascination with wine, and the history of wine, dates back to a memorable encounter with a bottle of Richebourg 1949 while working toward his doctorate from the University of Zurich, Switzerland. He has been invited to lecture on the topic at scientific meetings in San Francisco and Santa Clara as well as at Texas Tech and Oxford University (UK). Estreicher has published over 150 scientific papers as well as several articles on various aspects of the history of wine.

Softcover / Paperback. Condizione: Fine. First edition. Softcover. The author is an expert on serial killers. Founder of the Violent Crimes Institute, she holds a PhD in Criminal Justice and Forensic Science. She was the only profiler to have interviewed a large group of female serial killers for a first-ever book on profiling such killers. An in-depth study of females convicted of multiple murder in the United States, offering invaluable insights that have never before been available to law enforcement professionals, counsellors, and others who are concerned with convicted potential offenders. The results provide a profile of the female multiple murderer. Like their male counterparts, female killers endured patterns of extreme emotional, physical, and sexual abuse as children. Due to the familial turmoil the female offender, like the male multiple murderer, turned inward to an introverted fantasy life. Isolation became a way of life, and contact with others became less frequent. It appears that violence emerges from violence, whether the violence is physical, emotional, or sexual. Chapter headings include : Murder; Murder Theories: How Could They Do It?; Female Multiple Murderers: Up Close and Personal; The Process of Maturation; From Fantasy to Reality; The Sadistic Female Multiple Murderer; Behaviour Patterns; Profiling; Tornado Effect; Interviewing Multiple Murderers; Conclusion and Future of Profiling. With Bibliography. 235pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers.

Softcover / Paperback. Condizione: Fine. First edition. Softcover. The unthinkable crimes sketched in this book show that it is just as chancy to accept a ride offered by a couple as it is to hop into a car driven by a single male. Simply stated, couples or groups that kill usually have perverted tendencies as individuals, but it is only when they come together that their combined personality becomes lethal. How does it happen, and what can be done to prevent it? What are the differences between killers who act on their own, and those who prefer to take a partner? What goes through the partners' minds, years later, when they reflect on what they've done? Contents include : Rosemary and Frederick West, Caril Ann Fugate and Charles Starkweather, The Moors Murders (Myra Hindley and Ian Brady), Carol Bundy and Doug Clark, Charlene and Gerald Gallego, Martha Beck and Raymond Fernandez, Gwendolyn Graham and Catherine Wood, Amelia Sach and Annie Waters, The "Angels of Death" (two nurses), Dean Corll and Wayne Henley, The Hillside Stranglers, Charles Ng and Leonard Lake, The Zebra Killings, The Chicago Rippers, The Lainz Hospital, The Manson Family + many, many more.
