 Название: Сыны Каина: история серийных убийц от каменного века до наших дней Автор: Питер Вронский Издательство: АСТ Год: 2022 Формат: fb2, rtf Размер: 10 Мб Качество: Хорошее Язык: Русский
«Сыны Каина» – глобальная история серийных убийц как явления, охватывающая огромный временной период, от каменного века до наших дней, изложенная профессиональным историком-криминалистом, доктором исторических наук. Это подробное исследование феномена серийных убийц на протяжении всей истории человечества, их эволюции и того, почему их ужасающие преступления так занимают наши умы. До того как этот термин начал широко использоваться (с 1981 года), не было «серийных убийц». Были только «монстры» – убийцы, которых общество сначала воспринимало как оборотней, вампиров, упырей и ведьм, а позже – как хичкоковских психов. В «Сынах Каина» – книге, которая заполняет пробел между сухими академическими исследованиями и сенсационными преступлениями, – Питер Вронский исследует наше понимание того, что такое серийные убийства, охватывая период от доисторической эпохи (ок. 15 000 г. до н. э.) до наших дней. Углубляясь в историю и человеческую психику, автор фокусируется исключительно на сексуальных серийных убийцах, которые отличаются от всех других серийных убийц своими мотивами. Они среди нас. Их невозможно отличить от обычных людей… |

Название: All of the Marvels: A Journey to the Ends of the Biggest Story Ever Told Автор: Douglas Wolk Издательство: Penguin Press Год: 2021 Формат: EPUB Размер: 40 Мб Язык: английский / English
Winner of the 2022 Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Book. The first-ever full reckoning with Marvel Comics’ interconnected, half-million-page story, a revelatory guide to the “epic of epics”—and to the past sixty years of American culture—from a beloved authority on the subject who read all 27,000+ Marvel superhero comics and lived to tell the tale. The superhero comic books that Marvel Comics has published since 1961 are, as Douglas Wolk notes, the longest continuous, self-contained work of fiction ever created: over half a million pages to date, and still growing. The Marvel story is a gigantic mountain smack in the middle of contemporary culture. |

Название: The Spider: Inside the Criminal Web of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell Автор: Barry Levine Издательство: Crown Год: 2020 Формат: EPUB Размер: 47 Мб Язык: английский / English
Who was Jeffrey Epstein? A Pulitzer Prize–nominated journalist unearths never-before-reported details in the most comprehensive account yet of the disgraced financier’s life, death, and criminal web, including the role of Ghislaine Maxwell. By now, the basic contours of Jeffrey Epstein’s horrendous crimes—his decades-long serial abuse of young women and underage girls—are familiar. But for all that has been written about Epstein since his shocking death in a lower Manhattan jail cell, an astonishing amount remains unknown. A shy Brooklyn kid turned renegade financier, Jeffrey Epstein never wanted to play by the rules of polite society. He was elusive in life and he has remained just as elusive in death. What is known is that he had amassed nearly $600 million by the time of his death. That fortune allowed Epstein to pursue a privileged, secretive life, jetting between his fortress-like homes in Manhattan, New Mexico, and Little St. James, his private island. Behind these closed doors, Epstein socialized with scientists and world leaders and preyed on powerless young women. |
