Is There A Criminal Underclass In American Society
1,270 wordsThe notion of a criminal underclass within society is a complex matter. With the simple phrase comes a barrage of uncertainties and possibilities with much being written in recent decades on the subject. In fact the concept of an underclass has been around in a form since at least as far back as 1810 when Malthus explained it in terms of the over-production and over-population of the lower classes and saw the solution as encouraging the lower classes not to breed.

Book Review Of Michael Crichton The Andromeda Strain
380 wordsThe Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton is the book I have chose to read for my second book. The book is based on the idea that an extraterrestrial life form would likely not be in the form of a complex multi-celled organism like humans, but more in the form of single celled organisms. A single celled organism could be ten times more deadly then any complex structure; a single celled organism would be a bacterium or a virus. And if bacteria or a virus can live and flourish in the darkness of sp...
