With the collapse of the government after the Second World War, Americans have learned to live without help or interference from police, lawyers and bureaucrats. In this simple and happy world lives an eleven-year-old boy who wants to be a scientist. Having found a plant that makes concentrated uranium, he and his friends build a spaceship out of the strongest substances known to man-spider webs and egg shells. They fly into outer space, but barely make it back alive. Forced to crash land on Mount Saint Helens on Halloween, they encounter the frightening and magical inhabitants of a secret world. The young scientist discovers that the secrets that lie within his own mind can be more astounding than a trip into outer space. They eventually make it home, only to be grounded for going into outer space without asking permission. In the end they learn that there is still much to discover in their own back yard.

A young scientist and his friends are introduced to the frightening array of alternate universes when he creates a device that can open a doorway between dimensions. He learns that very small events can change how the world operates in very powerful and terrifying ways. Lost in a wilderness of parallel worlds and on the verge of despair, he finally discovers the key to finding his way home. When he finally makes it back, he vows to never leave the safety and comfort of his home universe again. He soon discovers, however, that the world of the human brain can be just as scary when he creates a machine that can read minds. After peering into the private thoughts and deepest longings of his close friends, he decides to destroy his creation only to discover how badly he needs it to fight the most horrifying menace of all-the ghost of a dead evil genius alive in cyberspace.

Media has a great influence on the perceptions and opinions of the public throughout varying areas, particularly for crimes, investigations, and trials. People receive information about these key events through some form of media, and the way the facts are represented is crucial to what people will believe.

Cases on Crimes, Investigations, and Media Coverage examines famous crime cases and the media coverage that surrounded them including film, television, and wider media coverage of major crimes, such as murders, the investigations that followed, and the subsequent trials. Covering critical topics such as press coverage, television, biases, news, perceptions, and film, this reference work is ideal for criminal justice professionals, forensics specialists, criminal justice advocates, journalists, media professionals, psychologists, sociologists, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.
