Female Serial Killers: How and Why Women Become MonstersIn this fascinating book, Peter Vronsky exposes and investigates the phenomenon of women who kill and the political, economic, social and sexual implications buried with each victim.

In this fascinating book, Peter Vronsky exposes and investigates the phenomenon of women who kill--and the political, economic, social and sexual implications buried with each victim. How many of us are even remotely prepared to imagine our mothers, daughters, sisters or grandmothers as fiendish killers? For centuries we have been conditioned to think of serial murderers and psychopathic predators as men--with women registering low on our paranoia radar. Perhaps that's why so many trusting husbands, lovers, family friends, and children have fallen prey to "the female monster." From history's earliest recorded cases of homicidal females to Irma Grese, the Nazi Beast of Belsen, from Britain's notorious child-slayer Myra Hindley to 'Honeymoon Killer' Martha Beck to the sensational cult of Aileen Wournos--the first female serial killer-as-celebrity--to cult killers, homicidal missionaries, and our pop-culture fascination with the sexy femme fatale, Vronsky not only challenges our ordinary standards of good and evil but also defies our basic accepted perceptions of gender role and identity.

Beautiful design
Simple, functional and beautifully designed, I'm glad I bought it.
(not a five starts just because I thought it was higher, but again, my fault for not reviewing the specs first)

Not Your Average Laptop Stand
One of the things that I always worry about with stands for my computer is how sturdy they will be. If they aren't sturdy, they aren't really worth having. This is super sturdy -- I don't feel any bounce or flex when I work on it. It's also super well made and looks good sitting on my desk. Both of those things make this one of the best stands that I've used. I just wish it were adjustable.

I’m really impressed with these 12-inch Heavy Duty Floating Shelf Brackets!
Size: 12 Inch, Style: Black 6Pack
I recently installed them in my living room to hold some books and decorative items, and they’ve been fantastic. The brackets feel extremely solid and well-made — the 1/5-inch thick iron gives them a sturdy, industrial look and they hold the shelves without any wobbling or sagging. I also love the sleek black finish; it looks modern and stylish, and it really complements my décor.
Installation was straightforward and stress-free because the set comes with screws, anchors, and a lever — everything I needed to get the shelves up securely. The pack of six brackets is great because it gave me enough for multiple shelves and even an extra in case I need it.
The only minor thing to note is that aligning the brackets perfectly requires a bit of patience, but once leveled, they hold like a dream.
Overall, these brackets are a great combination of strength, style, and value. They’ve made my shelves look clean and professional, and I feel confident they’ll last for years. Highly recommend for anyone looking for heavy-duty, attractive shelf support!

High quality look for office
Size: 10 Inch, Style: Black 4Pack, Size: 10 Inch, Style: Black 4Pack
These brackets were exactly what I was looking for. Very solid construction, clean powder-coated finish, and they gave the shelves a modern industrial look without being bulky. Installation was straightforward, and once mounted into studs they felt extremely sturdy.
I used them for floating wood shelves and was honestly impressed with how much weight they can handle without flexing. The black finish also matched perfectly with the rest of the room hardware.
For the price, these are a great value and look far more expensive than they are. Would definitely buy again for future projects.
