DOWNLOAD EBOOKProvides multidisciplinary coverage of stalking behavior worldwide from both academic and practical approaches Psycho-Criminological Approaches to Stalking Behavior: The International Perspective is a thorough, up-to-date overview of stalking perpetration and victimization in different regions of the world. This authoritative book brings together contributions from a team of leading scholars and practitioners that discuss a diverse range of interrelated topics and issues relevant to stalking and intrusive behavior from both theoretical and practical contexts. Whereas most of the literature on the subject is written from a Western viewpoint, this unique volume examines empirical research, policies, and practices from Asian and African countries, as well as those from Europe, the Americas, and Australia, to provide a truly global perspective. Divided into three parts, the book first examines theories and research on cross-national differences in stalking among college students, ex-partner stalking in Finland, cyberstalking victimization in Singapore, the heterogeneity of stalking and stalkers in Australia, public familiarity and understanding of stalking/harassing legislation in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and more. The book’s second part focuses on national portraits of stalking in a number of understudied populations, including Lithuania, Spain, Denmark, Portugal, and South Africa. Finally in the third section of the book, the chapters largely emphasize policy and best practice, including the Dutch model of policing stalking, risk assessment and management of stalking in Sweden, psycho-legal responses to online interpersonal harm, the German approach to stopping stalking, the United Kingdom response to assessing and managing stalking, and the work of the Danish Stalking Centre. This important contribution to the field: Offers insights from international professionals applicable in other geographical contexts Discusses the factors that influence social awareness and responses to stalking Explores the importance of victim vulnerability factors when managing risk of stalking Presents real-world case studies of stalking behavior, intimate partner violence, stalking victimization, and statutory and law enforcement efforts Reviews the intervention practices of the support institutions and justice systems of different countries Psycho-Criminological Approaches to Stalking Behavior: The International Perspective is an ideal primary or supplementary text for courses in criminology, criminal justice, forensic psychology, and social and behavioral science, as well as a valuable source of reference for those who deal with offenders or victims of stalking, including law enforcement agents, mental health professionals, legal practitioners, social services personnel, and policy makers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK'A voice that must be heard' Patti Smith 'Remarkable' Guardian 'Seductive, invigorating' Sunday Times 'An existential travel guide and an experiment in gonzo psychogeography... mesmerising' Telegraph An exhilarating, immersive journey into the Exclusion Zone of Chornobyl with the disaffected adventurers who illegally stalk its ruins, from one of Ukraine's foremost young writers The 1,000-square-mile Chornobyl Exclusion Zone is, for many, a symbol of total disaster: a reminder of shattered ideals and lost lives, now a toxic, dangerous no-man's-land. For Markiyan Kamysh, it became a site of pilgrimage. He and dozens like him call themselves 'stalkers': wild adventurers who sneak past border patrols to spend days getting lost in this apocalyptic environment of dense swampland and desolate villages. Kamysh, the son of a Chornobyl disaster liquidator, takes us with him into this alien world. In electric prose that captures the spectral beauty of the Zone and the reckless spirit of the stalkers, Kamysh tells of hallucinatory journeys alone amid the rusted ruins, of frantic brushes with police and moments of ecstatic oblivion in the wasteland. Written with gonzo energy and brash lyricism, Stalking the Atomic City is a vital, singular document of this dystopian reality.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSTALKING A DIVA(TM)is a real life cyber-thriller-the first of its genre-- and a page-turner from start to finish. Leandra's story is featured as an episode on the Investigation Discovery series "Obsession: Dark Desires" airing February 2014. "DIVA" tells the story of Leandra Ramm, an up-and-coming opera singer, model and musical theater actress with a fascinating past, whose burgeoning career is cut short by her relentless Singaporean cyber-stalker-a man whom she has never even met. Already a convicted arms dealer, her stalker turns cyber-terrorist, determined to destroy Ramm's reputation and relationships, by threatening to kill or maim her and those she loves if she fails to capitulate to his various ranting demands for love, attention and apologies. Leandra's six-year international nightmare comes alive through actual excerpts from thousands of emails, chat logs and blogs posted by her predator, creating an extremely disturbing portrait of a serial stalker, who law enforcement is powerless (or simply uninterested) in stopping. Her Stalker was arrested in Singapore, but Leandra is still waiting on Justice. Singapore authorities have convicted and sentenced Mak for his crimes against Leandra. The most frightening aspect of STALKING A DIVA(TM) is the very real possibility that, without warning, Ramm's story could happen to any one of us.
