Criminal Psychology: Understanding the Criminal Mind and Its Nature Through Criminal Profiling
Robert Forbes - 2016
There are records of these kinds of people in ancient times, and we all know they are still alive and well today. But what we don’t know is what goes on inside their heads. Why would anyone kill for the sake of it? Why would someone that seemed so nice and so normal do such a terrible thing? What causes this kind of behavior? These and many more questions have flooded the minds of those that study criminal psychology for decades. If there was a way to know why they do what they do, it would be so much easier to counteract it. If there was a way we could prevent this from ever happening in the first place, we would all be a lot better off than we are now, trying to figure out what is causing this behavior. But now, with this book, you can get a glimpse inside the mind of a serial killer, and see why they are the way they are. There is a lot that doesn’t meet the eye, and these things could potentially change the way we deal with violent offenders forever. We could potentially treat the symptoms from the beginning and prevent another serial killer from ever entering the world. This book covers it all, from what is really going on and what caused it to how we can prevent it. This book is going to change the way you view violent offenders, and show you we really can make a difference. Read on to discover how you can be a part of the solution to this problem, and how we can end this kind of behavior forever.

General Chemistry
Linus Pauling - 1970
Those principles included modern theories of atomic and molecular structure, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. In addition, Dr. Pauling attempted to correlate the theories with descriptive chemistry, the observed properties of substances, to introduce the student to the multitude of chemical substances and their properties.In this extensively revised and updated third edition, the Nobel prizewinning author maintains an excellent balance between theoretical and descriptive material, although the amount of descriptive chemistry has been decreased somewhat, and the presentation of the subject, especially in relation to the nonmetals, has been revised in such a way as to permit greater correlation with the electronic structure of atoms, especially electronegativity. The principles of quantum mechanics are discussed on the basis of the de Broglie wavelength of the electron. The quantized energy levels of a particle in a box are derived by means of a simple assumption about the relation of the de Broglie waves to the walls of the box. No attempt is made to solve the Schrödinger wave equation for other systems, but the wave functions of hydrogen-like electrons are presented and discussed in some detail, and the quantum states for other systems are also covered. Statistical mechanics is introduced before thermodynamics, and the discussion of thermodynamics is based on it. This arrangement reflects the author's belief that beginning students can understand statistical mechanics better than chemical thermodynamics. Aimed at first-year college students who plan to major in chemistry or closely related fields, the book is written in a logical, clear and understandable style. In addition, many excellent figures are included, along with numerous problems and 75 pages of appendixes covering such topics as symmetry of molecules and crystals, hybrid bond orbitals, and magnetic properties of substances.
