The most important part of a CSI‘s (crime scene investigator) job is accurate documentation of properly collected evidence. Documentation tells the story of the crime and can ultimately prove a suspect guilty. Through an array of specific exercises and actual document templates used in practice, Crime Scene Processing and Laboratory Workbook teaches students the proper physical evidence collection and processing techniques which will enable them to master the skills necessary to become a proficient CSI.Building on prior knowledge and facilitating hands-on experience, this laboratory manual allows students to practice the methods, procedures, and techniques associated with forensic science, crime scene investigation, documentation, and evidence handling. What makes this lab manual unique is that it follows a single hypothetical case to show each of the investigative techniques in the context of a real crime. Highlighting the skills and equipment needed for each assignment, the text presents over twenty separate exercises that alternate between investigating physical evidence specific to the crime scene and evidence specific to the laboratory. The book also provides useful forms, including the laboratory submission request, that duplicate real-world experience and demonstrate how to properly collect, record, and submit evidence.This volume is a useful companion to Gardner‘s Practical Crime Scene Processing and Investigation and Fisher‘s Techniques of Crime Scene Investigation. The exercises are designed to be completed with or without the help of a partner or as a member of a team. The appendices contain supplemental forms and numbered tent cards that can be used during the exercises along with other additional material such as a glossary and instructions on how to accurately write reports.

Patrick, Meg and their family had built a happy, sustainable life in regional Victoria. But in late 2013 they found themselves craving an adventure: a road trip.But theirs was a road trip with a difference. With Zephyr (10), Woody (1) and Zero their Jack Russell, they set off on an epic 6,000km year-long cycling journey along Australia’s east coast, from Daylesford to Cape York and back.Their aim was to live as cheaply as possible – guerrilla camping, hunting, foraging and bartering their permaculture skills, and living on a diet of free food, bush tucker, and the occasional fresh roadkill. They spent time in Aboriginal communities, joined an anti-fracking blockade, documented edible plants, and dodged speeding cars and trucks on the country’s most dangerous highways. The Art of Free Travel is the remarkable story of a rule-breaking year of ethical living.

After visiting the Occupied West Bank in 2023, Patrick Jones felt helpless. Useless. A voyeur. Could poetry make a difference? The brave, beautiful, resilient people he met asked him to go back and tell their stories. So, that's what he did. Antidotes to Dissolution's opening section offers glimpses of his first-hand experience of the people and the place and documents the genocide in Gaza livestreamed into our homes since October 2023. 'The Heart is a Security Risk' is a love letter to Palestine; a small act of resistance, of solidarity with the Palestinian people who have been subjected to so much death, destruction, pain and oppression.After a very difficult few years of loss, grief, toxic relationships, major surgery and world desolation, every day Patrick is grateful if words arrive and grateful for those who read them. In part two, 'Hold This Dust', he addresses our wellbeing and environment, asking how we can live in a world that allows such huge atrocities to happen? And how can we be kind to each other... and to ourselves? Using poetry as a tool for navigating the sometimes crushing world we are living in, Patrick explores sea swimming, breathwork, meditation, yoga, walking and gratitude practices in his own psychological journey through loss and grief to survival/thrival.

A bold reinterpretation of Henry James’s fictional universe that shows how characters who desire to “live” but struggle to translate that desire into reality actually have much to teach us about the activity of leading a life. Henry James and the Question of Living demonstrates that characters like Lambert Strether and John Marcher – whom readers often pity and pathologize as squeamish about sex and stuck in their heads – function as vectors for rich philosophical questions. Specifically, the idea that we must experience life as fully and intensely as possible, an injunction that is as omnipresent and affectively charged in our era as it was in James’s own. In their unsuccessful attempts to live up to this injunction, James’s characters reveal that the picture of subjectivity underpinning it has limited purchase on our practical, day-to-day experience of ourselves as agents.Arguing that James’s novels and stories are exemplary of what Robert B. Pippin describes as "philosophy by other means," Jones suggests that James’s style – and particularly his use of free indirect discourse – models a way of thinking about the activity of leading a life that is remarkable in its phenomenological subtlety and sophistication. Henry James and the Question of Living ultimately shows that paying close attention to James’s innovative techniques for representing lived experience allows us to place him in a mutually-enriching dialogue with philosophers like Martin Heidegger, Georges Canguilhem, and Béatrice Han-Pile.
