The Anatomy of Motive: The FBI's Legendary Mindhunter Explores the Key to Understanding and Catching Violent Criminals

The Anatomy of Motive: The FBI’s Legendary Mindhunter Explores the Key to Understanding and Catching Violent Criminals

No Is Not Enough: Resisting Trump’s Shock Politics and Winning the World We Need

really liked it

Where are the actionable solutions? Where are step by step plans…
