The Cases That Haunt Us: From Jack the Ripper to Jonbenet Ramsey, the FBI's Legendary Mindhunter Sheds Light on the Mysteries That Won't Go Away
by John E. Douglas, Mark Olshaker
By applying criminal personality profiling techniques he developed while stalking more current killers, Douglas provides a fresh, sage outlook on some disturbing history. He also sheds new light on San Francisco's Zodiac Killer, the Black Dahlia murder, Bambi Bembenek, the Boston Strangler, and the continuing mystery of who killed 6-year-old JonBent Ramsey. Douglas sometimes reveals his chief suspect; other times he simply narrows down who the killer is not. In the JonBent mystery (in which Douglas was hired by the Ramseys to find the killer), he presents a convincing case for why he believes the girl's parents are not guilty of murder. Douglas is founder of the FBI's Serial Killer Profiling Unit.

The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children
by Ross W. Greene
Flexibility and tolerance are learned skills.For reasons that are poorly understood, a few children don't "get" this part of socialization. Medical experts haven't helped much: the flurry of acronyms and labels (Tourette's, ADHD, ADD, etc.), the only new development is alternative vocabulary to describe the effects. Ross Greene, a pediatric psychologist instructor at Harvard Medical School, makes ground with detail, and sympathy. Quoted sessions with parents and children, the origins of "meltdowns" and developing strategies for avoidance.
