Sound Advice
If you want to get favorable media coverage, read this book. These two professors describe how to get a wider audience for your ideas. They have the credentials. In the back of the book there's a summary sheet on each one telling the extensive media coverage they're received, locally, regionally, and nationally.

Levin & Fox have produced several serious works on the topic of homicide and all reflect the fact that the authors are ...

Then, other examples are given, so that it becomes easily understandable how to ...

Extreme Killing: Understanding Serial and Mass Murder

Sage Publications, Inc, 2005

Why quote James Dobson as a source?
Fox and Levin are leading authors in the field of criminolgy. Jack Levin's books on hate crimes are among the best academic work on the subject and I assign them to my students. That's why I was surprised at the non-academic tone of this book. It utilizes some research but reads more like a true-crime book, full of all the gory (and super-gory) details. It's too much to ask students to read ...

Randomized Response: A Method for Sensitive Surveys (Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences)
James Alan Fox, Paul E. Tracy

Sage Publications, Inc, 1986

Randomized Response is an approach to survey data collection specifically designed for sensitive inquiries. The logic underlying this approach is that the element of chance sufficiently clouds a response so as to protect the respondent when disclosing personal or sensitive data. This book is the first comprehensive introduction and practical guide to randomized response for researchers wishing to use this technique.

Overkill

Dell, 1996

Garbage In, Garbage Out
This book speculates far more than good authors should do, especially dealing in the mind-boggling world of the serial killer. They are horribly wrong about the extent of Henry Lee Lucas' crimes (the numbers) and seem to know little about Ted Bundy that doesn't come from either Bob Keppel, Hugh Aynesworth or Stephen Michaud. Would love to see some original research.
