Sinopsis

In "Watch and Clock Escapements," the author delves into the intricate mechanics of timekeeping devices, unraveling the complexities of escapement mechanisms that lie at the heart of horological craftsmanship. With a meticulous attention to detail, the text showcases a convergence of engineering precision and artistic flair, providing both historical context and technical analysis. The narrative is enriched by rich illustrations and diagrams, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike, while its structured approach caters to both novice and seasoned horologists, reflecting the evolving nature of mechanical timepieces through the ages. Written by an anonymous authority in the field, the book likely emerges from a tradition of meticulous craftsmanship, possibly influenced by the author's own experiences in watchmaking or repair. The choice to remain anonymous speaks volumes about the communal nature of horological knowledge, where the art and science are often shared amongst craftsmen. This narrative anonymity allows readers to focus on the content rather than the creator, fostering a collective appreciation for the enduring legacy of clock and watch engineering. For anyone intrigued by the art of timekeeping, "Watch and Clock Escapements" is an essential addition to their library. This text not only educates but also inspires a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in the creation of timepieces, making it a must-read for horologists, engineers, and history enthusiasts alike.

    The first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the period "before Tuskegee"—from 1890 to 1940 
     
     
     
    Long before the U.S. government began conducting secret radiation and germ-warfare experiments, and long before the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, medical professionals had introduced—and hotly debated the ethics of—the use of human subjects in medical experiments. In Subjected to Science, Susan Lederer provides the first full-length history of biomedical research with human subjects in the earlier period, from 1890 to 1940. 
     
     
     
    Lederer offers detailed accounts of experiments—benign and otherwise—conducted on both healthy and unhealthy men, women, and children, including the yellow fever experiments (which ultimately became the subject of a Broadway play and Hollywood film), Udo Wile's "dental drill" experiments on insane patients, and Hideyo Noguchi's syphilis experiments, which involved injecting a number of healthy children and adults with the syphilis germ, luetin.

    While some professions—including medicine, law, and engineering—have wholeheartedly embraced wide-ranging codes of ethics and conduct, the field of cybersecurity continues to lack an overarching ethical standard. This vacuum constitutes a significant threat to the safety of consumers and businesses around the world, slows commerce, and delays innovation. 
     
     
     
    The Code of Honor: Embracing Ethics in Cybersecurity delivers a first of its kind comprehensive discussion of the ethical challenges that face contemporary information security workers, managers, and executives. Authors Ed Skoudis, president of the SANS Technology Institute College and founder of the Counter Hack team, and Dr. Paul Maurer, president of Montreat College, explain how timeless ethical wisdom gives birth to the Cybersecurity Code which is currently being adopted by security practitioners and leaders around the world. 
     
     
     
    This practical book tells numerous engaging stories that highlight ethically complex situations many cybersecurity and tech professionals commonly encounter. It also contains compelling real-world case studies—called Critical Applications—at the end of each chapter that help the listener determine how to apply the hands-on skills described in the book.
