Search and Surveillance

Search and Surveillance

Sybil Sharpe

Routledge
2017
sidottu
This title was first published in 2000: The development of 'search and surveillance' powers are amongst the most controversial issues to confront modern policing and studies of criminal law and criminal justice. This book is the first to challenge the orthodox concept of 'search' in the context of police investigation. Drawing upon extensive international case studies, it provides a fundamental new 'definition' of the highly charged debate surrounding the powers of law enforcers to gather evidence and information for use in criminal proceedings. The book also evaluates the compatibility of these powers of investigation with constitutional and human rights, set in the context of the changing objectives of investigators. Its balance of practical evaluation and in-depth analysis will make it a key text for academics and practitioners alike.

Mother in the Middle: A Biologist's Story of Caring for Parent and Child

Mother in the Middle: A Biologist's Story of Caring for Parent and Child

Sybil Lockhart

Atria Books
2014
nidottu
Called "a poignantly searing fusion of heartbreak and hope" by Kirkus Reviews, this is the story of a woman--and a neurobiologist--forced to come to terms with her mother's mental deterioration, while bringing a new life into the world. Sybil Lockhart, a Berkeley neurobiologist, became a "mother in the middle" when she was pregnant with her second daughter and her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. When her mother begins to show the first subtle signs of the disease that is slowly ravaging her brain, Sybil refuses to consider the possibility of dementia, insisting that all her mother needs is a daughter nearby. She relocates her young family to her beloved San Francisco Bay Area, where her memories of her mother and her childhood are deeply anchored. As Sybil sets about creating new memories against the backdrop of her past, the emerging undeniable truth about her mother's condition threatens to overwhelm her ability to maintain her career, nurture her marriage, raise her young daughter, and care for herself during her second pregnancy. Even though she appreciates the beauty of the dramatic biological processes at work inside the brains of her family members, she also understands their inevitable power, and she bravely describes the complicated emotions--denial, rage, ambivalence, exhaustion--that so many caregivers experience. With a unique combination of science and intimate experience, Mother in the Middle is a story of mothers and daughters, science and creativity, and life's exquisite intertwining of love and loss.

What woman hasn't fantasized about galloping off into the sunset with a cowboy like the Marlboro Man? In Sybil Raney's engaging novel, Waiting for Thunder, Ann MacMann does just that when she gives up the glitter of her life, career, and rich fianc in L.A. to start a dude ranch with Thunder, the cowboy she meets on a fateful trip home to the favorite place of her youth, the Texas Hill Country, where Ann buys the Shooting Star Ranch. But, instead of the blissful ride into the sunset with Thunder that Ann had imagined, she's bucked into a wild ride of unforeseen trials, tribulations, and town secrets. When fantasy meets reality, Ann and Thunder struggle with their differences to keep their love and dream of the ranch alive with the help, and hindrance, of the colorful inhabitants of Dry Creek. Written with wit and authenticity, Waiting for Thunder is a funny, poignant, and original romantic page-turner with heart.
