Killing is above all a drastic way of resolving interpersonal conflicts of interest. To understand why people kill, we need a theory of the nature of individual self-interests that will explain where and why they conflict. In this bold and lively, fact-filled book, Martin Daly and Margo Wilson find such theory in the emerging paradigm of evolutionary psychology, and demonstrate its utility for understanding homicide.

"A child is one hundred times more likely to be abused or killed by a stepparent than by a genetic parent, say two scientists in this startling book. Martin Daly and Margo Wilson show that the mistreatment to stepchildren, long a staple of folktales, has a solid basis in fact. Daly and Wilson apply the perspective of evolutionary psychology to investigate why stepparenthood is different from genetic parenthood and why steprelationships succeed or fail."--BOOK JACKET.

Performance, Reception, Iconography assembles twenty-three papers from an international group of scholars who engage with, and develop, the seminal work of Oliver Taplin.

The studies in this volume centre on three key areas - the performance of Greek literature, the interactions between literature and the visual realm of iconography, and the reception and appropriation of Greek literature, and of Greek culture more widely, in

All the data was out there to warn us of this impending attack, why didn’t we see it?"

In the wake of the attacks, statisticians moved quickly to become part of the national response to the global war on terror. This book is an overview of the emerging research program at the intersection of national security and statistical sciences. A wide range of talented researchers address issues in - Syndromic Surveillance---How do we detect a
