The authors offer controversial new assessments of major cases such as the Peterson case, the "Dingo" baby, and O.J. Simpson, together with startling new evidence from unsolved crimes--the deaths of Monroe, Kennedy, and Jimmy Hoffa--and penetrating studies of monstrous killers including Bundy, Dahmer, and Berkowitz. Stark light is also shed on some of crime's biggest enigmas, with entries that answer questions like "What is the best way to crack a safe?" and "How do lethal injections work?"
The Encyclopedia of Crime is appearing for the first time in ten years, now meticulously revised and updated. It is the essential book for dedicated crime enthusiasts, those with a passing interest, and anyone in need of an easy-to-use reference guide to notable crimes and famous criminals.
