More DescriptionThere's nothing elementary about these books Dr. Watson! Investigate the criminal underground in this new Freestyle series. Each title looks at a type of crime, focusing on famous criminal cases and infamous people, examining what happened, why, and how the perpetrators were caught and punished (if they ever were). Film stills are also used to compare real criminals with the film portrayal of them. Examples and facts are used in an engaging way that will appeal to less-able readers. The titles also relate to the lives of the readers. For example, in 'Cyber Crime' there is a checklist on how to protect yourself from Internet crime.
