It’s 1990s New York. Twenty years ago, NYPD officer Robert Mulvey faced corruption charges that threatened to tear his life apart. Now his young nephew, the much-decorated officer Stephen Holt, has been accused executing three men, including one cop. For these two men to save their careers—and redeem their family’s reputation—they will dare to go where few officers have gone before: straight through the NYPD’s fabled “blue wall of silence” to see that justice is served…

Most professional books on the subject of homicide convey a criminological or legal standpoint. Homicide: A Psychiatric Perspective complements those approaches by offering a clinical understanding unique in the literature, considering not merely the crime but the broad spectrum of homicidal behavior. Combining psychiatric knowledge of that behavior with actual case material, this work provides a single-expert point of view, synthesizing current literature while maintaining a focused perspective that not only reviews the macroscopic findings of descriptive nosology but also places the individu

Homicide in the Biblical World analyzes the treatment of homicide in the Hebrew Bible and demonstrates that it is directly linked to the unique social structure and religion of ancient Israel.

This book reconstructs biblical law from both legal texts and narrative texts
