Nicholas T. Lappas: Forensic Toxicology

Forensic Toxicology

Principles and Concepts

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

Forensics For Dummies

An original study of the UK's preventive hybrid orders, revealing how civil powers with criminal consequences target people as much as behaviour. A timely critique of how these powers disproportionately affect groups already subject to social disadvantage and intensive policing.

American Association for State and Local History

This book helps community leaders identify the unique personality of a place, design strategies to maintain that place's authentic personality, and promote that personality to tourists and potential residents. Communities worldwide risk losing their soul-the distinctive character expressed through local stories, traditions, food, music, crafts, entertainment, and events. Business closures, homogenization, and imported retail also threaten community character. Since "authentic experiences" are among the primary motivations for traveling, this loss of distinctiveness can also have economic implications. Maintaining the balance between preservation and promotion, between residents and visitors, becomes more critical for community well-being. Some communities explore local characteristics as a branding opportunity and attract new residents, focusing on their authentic historic and cultural assets to provide immersive experiences. Other communities use placemaking and placekeeping to retain their unique character. Drawn from the author's extensive travel and work in the U.S. and around the world, Personality of Place illustrates various solutions to saving and sharing a community's diverse character and explores how communities can enhance their personalities through the often-intangible assets that distinguish them from neighboring places. Using more than 50 case studies from the United States and other countries, this instructive and informative book offers specific strategies for retaining a sense of place and leveraging this distinctive "personality" as the basis for a community's cultural and economic prosperity.

Voices from the Inside traces how incarcerated women and trans and nonbinary individuals in California use writing as a form of organizing, survival, and political analysis. Exploring the dynamics of agency and voice in incarcerated women's communicative lives and their strategies of resistance, survival, and resilience, this account brings an abolition-feminist lens to our understanding of the gendered harms of incarceration. Importantly, it develops a theory of incarcerated women's public sphere as an organized space of critical resistance and advocacy which, in turn, plays a key role in shaping legal doctrine and policy reform debates. Painting a richly textured portrait of incarcerated women as change agents, this powerful account of oppression and resistance behind bars offers a blueprint for activists on the inside and outside alike.

Voices from the Inside

Why Britain's energy path gave rise to an ideology of endless growth Despite the warnings of climate scientists, the world remains dangerously addicted to fossil fuel. Why has it been so difficult to break this habit? In a major new account, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson suggests that the planetary emergency has profound historical roots reaching back to the making of the first fossil fuel economy in eighteenth-century Britain. Rather than look for a single dramatic rupture centered on the steam-powered factory system, in Infinite Coal Albritton Jonsson shows that there was a much more gradual and multidimensional development of the first coal economy, stretching from the deep mine and ironworks to the household and the global food system. Albritton Jonsson explores not only the material forces behind the British energy path but also how ideas about fossil fuel energy reoriented politics and society toward a new ideal of growth. At the same time an environmental and political history of Britain’s energy transformation, Infinite Coal explains why and how coal became so deeply embedded in our way of life. Albritton Jonsson argues that the most important legacy of Britain’s early fossil fuel economy is fossil cornucopianism—the idea of a bountiful, never-ending energy source—which still haunts modern politics and economics.

The Anatomy of Criminal Procedure

Framing the global “Whistleblowers’ Revolution” as a vital response to democratic malaise, this volume examines the socio-legal dynamics surrounding the exposure of illegal or unethical practices in both the public and private sectors. The analysis covers innovative legal frameworks and protective regimes across multiple jurisdictions while also closing the divide between theory and practice. The volume brings together contributions from distinguished scholars and practitioners alongside firsthand accounts from whistleblowers, resulting in a holistic approach that evaluates existing and prospective measures aimed at empowering truth-tellers and confronting entrenched cultures of silence.
The volume is structured to connect theory with lived experience. It moves from a transnational socio-legal analysis of global conditions (Part 1) to critical jurisdiction-based assessments across multiple countries (Part 2). The work then culminates in a series of firsthand narratives (Part 3), offered by insiders whose accounts reveal the significance, personal costs, and institutional consequences tied to speaking truth to power.
