Expanded and updated, this is the definitive history of British serial killing 1888-2020 - by the UK's leading expert, David Wilson

Every human requires shelter from the elements, whether they live under the intense African sun or by the frigid Arctic Ocean. Our need to build has produced countless styles of architecture, from ancient temples to modern skyscrapers, some soaring into the air and some containing just one room for an entire family. Architecture is a complex endeavor, encompassing a variety of artistic and technical fields to create the spaces where we live, work, play, eat, relax, pray, and enjoy ourselves. Some buildings are meant to be works of art while others need only shelter a family temporarily before they move on. The past and the future are ever present in the architecture around us. At the same time that we build taller and taller towers of glass and steel, we work to restore the structures that have survived through the centuries in the hopes that the next generation can look up at them with the same sense of awe. A wide range of traditions, from those of ancient Greece and Rome to the Renaissance and Art Deco, inform modern architecture. By contrast, some cultures have perfected simple buildings that have remained virtually unchanged over the course of centuries. Join us on this world tour of architecture as we explore some of the greatest structures around the globe.

We express our taste and personality through the clothes we wear, how we style our hair, and how we groom ourselves. Style is individual, and it can be eternal, appealing to people throughout centuries. Fashion today means the international industry of clothing designers, manufacturers, retailers and influencers who present styles of clothing we can choose to wear--or not. From simple loincloths, which are still worn by indigenous people in the Amazon in South America and highlands of tropical Papua New Guinea, to the latest fashions on the runway at Fashion Weeks in Paris, London, Milan and New York, clothing represents personal taste and practical needs--and the way we see ourselves. Clothing can conceal and it can reveal. This book explores fashion as an art form that combines technology, artistry and imagination. It can tell stories that we want to hear or show us new visions that stir our imagination.

China has become a global leader in the 21st century, relying on its military, economy, and diplomacy to project influence and become a superpower. With a billion and a half people, China's population is the largest in the world today and one of the most advanced, enjoying the fruits of a technology industry that has grown to become second to none. But progress has not been universal, as many ethnic groups throughout China suffer repression, and the Communist Party maintains its iron grip on authority and information. At a time when the economy is booming and prosperity is growing, China has nevertheless come under scrutiny for its appalling human rights record and its persistent bullying of neighbors. The question of whether China will surpass the United States to become the world's greatest power appears open, as does the question of whether the Communist Party will maintain its grip on power. For most Chinese, however, global dominance and politics are secondary to the stresses of modern life. A wildly imbalanced sex ratio leads to a deficit of women; the One-Child Policy drastically changes traditional family dynamics; and poverty remains endemic throughout a rural population that more closely resembles the developing world than it does the modern. This book will help you explore the fascinating paradoxes, accomplishments, and problematic aspects of contemporary China.

The war in Syria has attracted the attention of the entire world, sucking many nations into the fighting and creating millions of refugees who have fled their country in search of a better life. Many different rebel groups, some united and some unaligned, have fought to overthrow the government of dictator Bashar Al-Assad. The war has created numerous horrors, including the rise of the ultra-fundamentalist group ISIS, and has devastated the Syrian nation, people, and economy. As millions of refugees flee the violence, many nations are forced to decide what support they will give to these people--some opening borders and doors, others firmly shutting out refugees in the belief that they must preserve their own people, culture, and economy. What are the roots of this conflict and how did it come to involve so many regional and global powers? The war in Syria has produced a tangled web of alliances and enemies, supporters and detractors, which have turned a simple struggle against tyranny into a war of opposing ideologies. There will be more fighting before peace comes to Syria. Meanwhile the Syrian people must decide for themselves whether they will stay under the rule of Assad or flee the country as millions of their countrymen have, looking for a new future outside the borders of this war-torn region.

"India is a nation both ancient and modern. Founded in 1947, its history dates back 4,000 years. The majority of India's workforce is comprised of farmers; yet its overall economic growth stands among the world's greatest. While its traditionalist society disenfranchises parts of the population, it has successfully carried out the largest free elections in the world. Seven hundred active languages and over one billion people characterize the Republic of India, a growing global power. By every measure, India has changed so much since its founding, boasting far better wealth and health, that it may as well be another country. For many Indians, however, little has poverty remains endemic throughout much of society as the gains of a roaring economy go into the pockets of the wealthy. Hundreds of millions of Indians have no access to electricity, running water, or toilets, and earn as little as the equivalent of two dollars a day. The sheer size of India means that every problem is a big problem, requiring a big solution."--
