19743106Davis CA: Center on Administration of Criminal Justice University of California Davis 1974. Hardcover. Very Good. 87 pp in original wrappers. Some light handling wear middle binding fastener missing; text clean. Organized into five sections: the robbery setting; the handling of robbery arrestees; the geography of robbery the response of the police and other agencies to robbery and the history and concept of robbery. Interestingly the study begins with the assertion that "there can be little doubt that citizens are today less safe in the streets than they were two decades or even one decade ago. The populace on the whole knows this and is concerned about it." They cite a rise in robbery of 250 percent between 1960 and 1972. This study intended to explore the patterns of robbery and criminal justice response to it in the United States used the city of Oakland California as a case study.

18944271London George routledge and Sons 1894 Première édition. Bougran brun avec des planches illustrées avec des dessins et des titres dorés et noirs. La dorure est un peu frottée et il y a quelques bosses sur les bords. La reliure est un peu bosselée et l'une des illustrations (p118) est partiellement détachée (sur la moitié inférieure) mais tient encore en place. Petite réparation sur le bord de l'illustration du frontis avec du ruban adhésif d'archivage. Quelques soulignements au crayon sur des mots difficiles tout au long de l'ouvrage suggèrent que celui-ci a été utilisé comme support pédagogique. Il y a un trou assez important à la page 65/66 (voir photographies). Dans l'ensemble, l'ouvrage est en assez bon état. Il s'agit essentiellement d'une réédition des fables d'Esope avec la morale à la fin de chaque conte. Gravures attrayantes en noir et blanc. Viii, 280 pages. 190 mm x 150 mm

Keller original decorated blue-green cloth front and spine panels stamped in gold t.e.g. fore-edge untrimmed bottom edge rough trimmed. First edition first binding. Collects two stories. The first printing of the novelette version of "The Autobiography of a Quack" first published anonymously in the ATLANTIC MONTHLY in October and November 1867. "It was a realistic account of the devices by which a dishonest and ignorant physician proceeds and it gave a veracious picture of the seamy side of life in Philadelphia and other large cities. Homeopathy spiritualism and other pet aversions of the orthodox physician were treated in a humorous way and the cold-blooded manner in which the quack tells his story made it a successful piece of irony." - Quinn American Fiction p. 311. "The Case of George Dedlow" Mitchell's first published story was published anonymously and without his knowledge in the ATLANTIC MONTHLY in July 1866. It is largely a realistic story of the feelings both physical and mental of an army surgeon who lost both arms and legs in a battle which occurred during the American Civil War. The satire becomes clear at the end when Dedlow is briefly united with his legs during a spiritualistic seance. Some readers missed the point and according to Mitchell "the spiritual incident at the end of the story was received with joy by the spiritualists as a valuable proof of the truth of their beliefs."
