"William Allen White has written a great book....The optimism and belief in the ultimate triumph of good which is shown in Mr. White's story are gratifying to the novel reader....There is complete satisfaction in the downfall of the wicked Bemis, the peaceful ending of the village poet, and the ultimate rescue of John Barclay from his curse of too great wealth....'A Certain Rich Man' is such a book that cannot pass without exceptional consideration. As a study of a Kansas town it is alone worthy of the highest praise; as the medium through which acquaintance is made with many fascinating personages, male and female, it is most welcome, since the characters are very human and real, and, finally, as an exemplification of the spirit." -The Bellman "William Allen White...has drawn a wonderful picture of the beginning of the latest of all the great revolutions of the world's history. And at the focal point he has portrayed with exceptional depth of insight and power of expression, some of the most tremendous character revolutions of individual experience....All this aside, we have in 'A Certain Rich Man' a host of individuals, each distinctly characteristic in every movement, and not one of them superfluous to the story. They are strong and weak, and the weak are sometimes strong and the strong sometimes weak, just as it is in life....It is mellow with humor, and it sparkles with wit - wit that sometimes blisters with a wholesome burn. An extraordinary good novel, simply for its interest as a story, this novel is also, for the reader who has eyes to see and ears to hear, an essay of wonderful grasp and brilliancy and an exalted spiritual poem." -The Public "Has attracted more thoughtful attention than any other novel published this year....The kind of folly which the certain rich man of Luke's parable exemplifies is illustrated in Mr. White's story. It is the craze for accumulation. The certain rich man of Luke's parable may or may not have been an exceptional man in Luke's generation, but he is the typical man of Mr. White's generation. To trace the workings of this abnormal passion in the human heart and in human society is the purpose of this novel - for it is a novel with a purpose. Most novels that are worth much have some purpose behind them. The story, not less than the poem, is an interpretation of life, and he is a poor interpreter who can not show us not only what life is, but what is ought to be....This great story, in its ethical and its social significance, is the most important work of fiction that has lately appeared in America. I do not think that a more trenchant word has been spoken to this nation since 'Uncle Tom's Cabin.' And it is profoundly to be hoped that this book may do for the prevailing Mammonism what 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' did for slavery." -The Christian Educator

The historical study of crime has expanded in criminology during the past few decades, forming an active niche area in social history. Indeed, the history of crime is more relevant than ever as scholars seek to address contemporary issues in criminology and criminal justice. Thus, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice provides a systematic and comprehensive examination of recent developments across both fields. Chapters examine existing research, explain on-going debates and controversies, and point to new areas of interest, covering topics such as criminal law and courts, police and policing, and the rise of criminology as a field. This Handbook also analyzes some of the most pressing criminological issues of our time, including drug trafficking, terrorism, and the intersections of gender, race, and class in the context of crime and punishment. The definitive volume on the history of crime, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Crime and Criminal Justice is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of criminology, criminal justice, and legal history.

Science fiction is a literary genre based on scientific speculation. Works of science fiction use the ideas and the vocabulary of all sciences to create valid narratives that explore the future effects of science on events and human beings. Science Fact and Science Fiction examines in one volume how science has propelled science-fiction and, to a lesser extent, how science fiction has influenced the sciences. Although coverage will discuss the science behind the fiction from the Classical Age to the present, focus is naturally on the 19th century to the present, when the Industrial Revolution and spectacular progress in science and technology triggered an influx of science-fiction works speculating on the future. As scientific developments alter expectations for the future, the literature absorbs, uses, and adapts such contextual visions. The goal of the Encyclopedia is not to present a catalog of sciences and their application in literary fiction, but rather to study the ongoing flow and counterflow of influences, including how fictional representations of science affect how we view its practice and disciplines. Although the main focus is on literature, other forms of science fiction, including film and video games, are explored and, because science is an international matter, works from non-English speaking countries are discussed as needed.

Hapke examines how writers attempted to turn an outcast into a heroine in literature otherwise known for its puritanical attitude toward the fallen woman. She focuses on how these authors (all male) expressed late-Victorian conflicts about female sexuality. Hapke reevaluates Crane's Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, discusses neglected prostitution fiction by authors Joaquin Miller, Edgar Fawcett, and Harold Frederic, and surveys progressive white slave novels.
