Crime: Computer Viruses to Twin Towers
ISBN #1581124899
An overview
of the United States
legal system, with a brief introduction to Islamic
and International law, the book is divided into six parts. Part I
(The Legal System and Crime) introduces the U.S. legal system and
the classification of crime. Part II (White Collar Crime) covers
cybercrime, crime the old fashioned way, and healthcare fraud. Part
III (Homicide) deals with simple murder, serial murder, mass and
spree murder; and assassination. Part IV (Special Groups) covers the
mafia; the family; the medical, legal, and teaching professions; the
religion profession; celebrities; and stupid criminals. Part V (On
the Edge) deals with topics I consider to be a bit strange; that is,
quackery, innovative defenses, and dangerous cults. And finally,
Part VI (Residue) discusses what is left ... capital punishment and
crimes against humanity, including terrorism. Throughout the book,
to illustrate points, I have used over 300 cases of actual crimes.
The names of the people and the facts of the cases used in the
discussions of these crimes are taken directly from referenced news
reports. |
