Description
"Fox, Levin, and Quinet explore the general theory of power and control as a central and unifying thesis for understanding why people kill." "Each chapter explores a different sub-type of homicide and the circumstances in which people kill each other. Case studies in each chapter use recent well-known examples that are relevant to public policy. The authors discuss how politicians use high-profile cases to change the criminal law or to secure funding for programs and policies to reduce violence, and how these high-profile cases shape public opinion about homicide."--BOOK JACKET.
