Sinopsis

Volcano Facts explores the fascinating world of volcanism, highlighting its destructive power and its vital role in shaping our planet. Volcanoes aren't just agents of destruction; they contribute to soil fertility and geothermal energy, and even create new land. The book reveals how these geological phenomena are integral to Earth's processes and influence human history.

 
The book examines volcano formation, eruption science, and the historical impact of volcanic events, such as Vesuvius, Krakatoa and Mount St. Helens. You'll learn about plate tectonics and magma formation in an accessible way. Did you know that volcanic aerosols can affect global temperatures? Or that volcanic ash can preserve ancient sites, linking volcanism to both climatology and archaeology?

 
The book progresses across three main sections, starting with volcano types and their formation, then delves into the science of eruptions and associated hazards, and concludes with analyses of significant historical eruptions. Volcano Facts balances robust scientific explanations with compelling historical narratives, making it a valuable resource for students and anyone interested in understanding these powerful forces of nature.

    This timely book explores the alarming rise of ransomware: malicious software blocking users from their systems or data until they've paid money to regain access or to prevent the release of sensitive information. High-profile British examples of the twenty-first century have targeted national libraries and healthcare organizations; in the US, hackers of Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley Health Network held patient data hostage—when their demands went unmet, they published topless photographs of women with breast cancer. 
     
     
     
    The issue presents formidable challenges and costs for businesses, national security and, as the Pennsylvania case showed, individuals—often society's most vulnerable. But we can watch and learn from cyber extortionists, leaving us better prepared for next time. In 2022, a series of devastating ransomware attacks prompted Costa Rica's president to declare a national emergency, describing a "state of war." This episode had much to tell us about how these networks arise, operate, organize—and collapse. 
     
     
     
    Max Smeets's landmark study demystifies the ransomware playbook, from funding to networking. Through one of the largest ransomware operations on record, he reveals how this challenge has evolved, how it differs in substance and style from traditional cyber/hacking threats, and how to combat it.
