Through an Unlocked Door] is a unique look (I don't know of another book quite like it) at the crime of murder occurring in the homes of those who, through a matter of conscious decision or simply not paying attention, failed to secure their homes and to lock their doors, and because of this, were easily slaughtered. It is both an in-depth look at those killers who went out of their way to find the unlocked doors, and those who suffered because of it. Indeed, the issue of the unlocked home crosses all societal, economic, and cultural lines; and can be found in abundance throughout all 50 U.S states. And this book is an attempt to bring this ""hidden"" problem to light, so that those who have had an issue with securing their dwellings, will make the proper changes, and in doing so, will greatly reduce their chances of becoming a homicide victim.
In this revised, updated and expanded edition, the author explores the life of Theodore Bundy, one of the more infamous-and flamboyant-American serial killers on record. Bundy's story is a complex mix of psychopathology, criminal investigation, and the U.S. legal system. This in-depth examination of Bundy's life and his killing spree that totaled dozens of victims is drawn from legal transcripts, correspondence and interviews with detectives and prosecutors. Using these sources, new information about several murders is unveiled. The biography follows Bundy from his broken family background to his execution in the electric chair.
This Companion Textbook supplements the ActivEpi CD-ROM, sold separately. The ActivEpi CD-ROM provides a multimedia presentation of concepts, commonly taught in an introductory epidemiology course. ActivEpi mixes a full array of media to motivate, explain, visualize and apply epidemiological concepts. Virtually all of the material on the ActivEpi CD-ROM is included in the Companion Textbook. Because individuals differ in their learning skills, the ActivEpi CD-ROM and the ActivEpi Companion Textbook offer readers different but related options on how to learn epidemiology. The Textbook can be used as a hardcopy reference of the textual materials contained on the CD-ROM, as a resource for the practice exercises, as a general reference, or even a self-contained textbook. ActivEpi includes 15 lessons and over 50 hours of content via more than 250 launchable activities and homework exercises. It can be used in a variety of teaching formats: distance learning, self-paced learning, on-campus courses, and short courses. For the latest additions to ActivEpi, visit David Kleinbaum's website.
In the nearly three years since the publication of the ActivEpi CD-ROM and its companion text, the authors received several suggestions to produce an abbreviated version that narrows the discussion to the most essential principals and methods. A Pocket Guide to Epidemiology contains less than half as many pages as the ActivEpi Companion Text and is a stand-alone introductory text on the basic principals and concepts of epidemiology.
