    “Takes the reader into the Pacific war and offers a front-row seat to the exploits of the Wright Project and their highly innovative technology.” —War History Network 
     
    In August 1943, a highly classified US Army Air Force unit, code-named the “Wright Project,” departed Langley Field for Guadalcanal in the South Pacific to join the fight against the Empire of Japan. Operating independently, under sealed orders drafted at the highest levels of Army Air Force, the Wright Project was unique, both in terms of the war-fighting capabilities provided by classified systems the ten B-24 Liberators of this small group of airmen brought to the war, and in the success these “crash-built” technologies allowed. The Wright airmen would fly only at night, usually as lone hunters of enemy ships. In so doing they would pave the way for the United States to enter and dominate a new dimension of war in the air for generations to come.  
     
    This is their story, from humble beginnings at MIT’s Radiation Lab and hunting U-boats off America’s eastern shore, through to the campaigns of the war in the Pacific in their two-year march toward Tokyo. The Wright Project would prove itself to be a combat leader many times over and an outstanding technology innovator, evolving to become the 868th Bomb Squadron.  
     
    Comprehensive and highly personal, this story can now be revealed for the very first time, based on official sources, and interviews with the young men who flew into the night.

    Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses the power of hypnosis to bring about positive change in a person's thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. It is a natural, relaxed state of heightened awareness and focus, during which individuals are more open to suggestions and capable of accessing the subconscious mind. While hypnosis is often associated with entertainment or mysticism, hypnotherapy is a well-established and evidence-based practice used by licensed professionals to address a wide variety of issues, from stress and anxiety to chronic pain and bad habits. 
    The origins of hypnotherapy can be traced back thousands of years to ancient cultures, where the use of trance-like states was employed for healing and spiritual rituals. In more modern times, figures such as Franz Anton Mesmer and Milton Erickson helped shape the practice, bringing hypnosis into the medical field. Today, hypnotherapy is recognized as a legitimate treatment in many parts of the world, with practitioners working alongside other healthcare professionals to improve mental and physical well-being. 
    One of the core principles of hypnotherapy is that the subconscious mind plays a significant role in shaping our thoughts, behaviors, and perceptions. While the conscious mind controls our daily decisions and actions, the subconscious mind holds our deeper beliefs, memories, and automatic reactions. It is in this subconscious realm where many issues, such as phobias, unresolved trauma, and limiting beliefs, are stored and continue to influence us in ways we may not be fully aware of. Hypnotherapy works by bypassing the conscious mind and speaking directly to the subconscious, allowing for deep-seated changes to take place.

    In the 1980s, as HIV/AIDS ravaged queer communities and communities of color in the United States and beyond, a straight white teenager named Ryan White emerged as the face of the epidemic. Diagnosed with hemophilia at birth, Ryan contracted HIV through contaminated blood products. In 1985, he became a household name after he was barred from attending his Indiana middle school. As Ryan appeared on nightly news broadcasts and graced the covers of popular magazines, he was embraced by music icons and well-known athletes, achieving a curious kind of stardom. Analyzing his struggle and celebrity, Paul M. Renfro's powerful biography grapples with the contested meanings of Ryan's life, death, and afterlives. 
     
     
     
    As Renfro argues, Ryan's fight to attend school forced the American public to reckon with prevailing misconceptions about the AIDS epidemic. Yet his story also reinforced the hierarchies at the heart of the AIDS crisis. Because the "innocent" Ryan had contracted HIV "through no fault of his own," as many put it, his story was sometimes used to blame presumably "guilty" populations for spreading the virus. Reexamining Ryan's story through this lens, Renfro reveals how the consequences of this stigma continue to pervade policy and cultural understandings of HIV/AIDS today.

    Have you thought about a career in data science? It's where the money is right now, and it's only going to become more widespread as the world evolves. Machine learning is a big part of data science, and for those that already have experience in programming, it's the next logical step. 
    Machine learning is a subsection of AI, or Artificial Intelligence, and computer science, using data and algorithms to imitate human thinking and learning. Through constant learning, machine learning gradually improves its accuracy, eventually providing the optimal results for the problem it has been assigned to. 
    It is one of the most important parts of data science and, as big data continues to expand, so too will the need for machine learning and AI. 
    Here's what you will learn in this quick guide to machine learning with Python for beginners:What machine learning isWhy Python is the best computer programming language for machine learningThe different types of machine learningHow linear regression worksThe different types of classificationHow to use SVMs (Support Vector Machines) with Scikit-LearnHow Decision Trees work with ClassificationHow K-Nearest Neighbors worksHow to find patterns in data with unsupervised learning algorithms 
    You will also find plenty of code examples to help you understand how everything works.
