Описание: In Chemical Crimes: Science and Poison in Victorian Crime Fiction, Cheryl Blake Price delves into the dark world of Victorian criminality to examine how poison allowed authors to disrupt gender boundaries, genre, and the professionalization of science. Tracing the role of the chemical crime through the works of Letitia Elizabeth Landon, Ellen Wood, Edward Bulwer Lytton, L. T. Meade, Charles Warren Adams, and Wilkie Collins, Price argues that poison this intervention not only provided a useful tool for authors to challenge the growing power of science but also that its fluid nature and ability to mix, mingle, and transcend boundaries made it ideal for generic experimentation.
From the Newgate and Silver Fork novels of the 1830s to the emergent genres of science and detective fiction of the 1890s, Price advocates for the classification of a new type of poisoner, one who combined crime with methodical scientific know-how: the chemical criminal. Chemical Crimes shows how authors used the subversiveness of chemical crimes to challenge the supposed disciplinary force of forensic detection and suggests that generic developments were inspired as much by criminal scientific innovation as they were by the rise of the detective-scientist. By focusing on chemical crimes appearance at significant moments, this book traces how reactions to Victorian science inspired change in nineteenth-century crime fiction.

Описание:

This book is the story of Whistleblower Blake Percival. In 2011 Blake blew the whistle on the background investigation process of the United States government. Blake's revelations brought to light serious problems that might have allowed Edward Snowden and Aaron Alexis to slip through the cracks rather than be investigated properly and cleared or denied access as found appropriate. Blake's decision to do the right thing was easy for him to make but came at a high price.

In this book, you'll hear firsthand who this man is that exposed all this. You'll learn in detail what he did and how he did it as he shares intimate details about why someone would go through such a struggle. You'll hear the inside story of what it took, why he would do it, and what it was like to win in the end. His story just goes to show that you can do the right thing and win.
