  From TikTok and Fortnite to Grindr and Facebook, Aynne Kokas delivers an urgent look into the technology firms that gather our data, and how the Chinese government is capitalizing on this data flow for political gain. 
   
   
   
  In Trafficking Data, Aynne Kokas looks at how technology firms in the two largest economies in the world, the United States and China, have exploited government policy (and the lack thereof) to gather information on citizens, putting US national security at risk. Kokas argues that US government leadership failures, Silicon Valley's disruption fetish, and Wall Street's addiction to growth have fueled China's technological goldrush. In turn, American complacency yields an unprecedented opportunity for Chinese firms to gather data in the United States and quietly send it back to China, and by extension, to the Chinese government. Drawing on years of fieldwork in the US and China and a large trove of corporate and policy documents, Trafficking Data explains how China is fast becoming the global leader in internet governance and policy, and thus of the data that defines our public and private lives.

  The Covid-19 pandemic has brought forth global anxiety about linkages between the environment and society at a fundamental structural level. Earthly Order: How Natural Laws Define Human Life provides an accessible exposition of the latest foundational knowledge on how natural and social systems science can inform planetary crises. Humanity has either tried to conquer or capitulate to natural order, whereas we should be seeking to understand latent structures and patterns that permeate all systems and develop an "earthly order," that is socially functional and sustainable. 
   
   
   
  Current debates in politics often present what should constitute a "world order" while scientists have wrestled with what are fundamental conditions of "natural order." Author Saleem H. Ali provides a synthesis of these debates with practical guidance for the public with a host of current examples around environmental decision-making by consumers, the government, and industry.

  Crusoe Castaways and Shipwrecks...

  Mike Rendell

  “Fascinating” stories of real-life people and events that inspired the author of the classic adventure novel Robinson Crusoe (Historical Novel Society).   This book looks at some of the stories that inspired Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson Crusoe—stories of bravery, determination, and good fortune, as well as human negligence, sheer stupidity, and bad luck. In addition to an overview of Defoe’s life and his monumentally successful novel, it also considers some of the reasons why people found themselves cast away—as a result of being wrecked, abandoned as a punishment, or marooned by pirates, or even out of deliberate choice.   Major hurricanes in the eighteenth century causing huge damage to shipping and loss of life are also covered, along with catastrophes when ships were lost, and astonishing tales of survival in the face of adversity—down in the Falklands, in the Caribbean, and off the coast of Australia. It looks at how being cast away brings out the best in some—and in others the very worst. And it examines perhaps the most astonishing story of them all—sixty slaves abandoned on a desolate treeless island in the Indian Ocean and left there for fifteen years, some of whom survived against all odds.

  Coding for Beginners - A...

  You've probably read the phrase "anyone can learn how to code" many times before you landed this book. 
  While setting goals high is great, realistically speaking, coding isn't the most beginner-friendly skill to learn. 
  In fact, the resources available online usually make learning how to code sound too easy, but you'll soon find out that the book, tutorial or any other guide assumes you already know the basics and have the semblance of coding skills. By the time you figure this out, you're midway through a book you don't understand and just wasted your precious time. 
  This book was written specifically to: 
  Give beginners a road map to follow, after choosing the type of project they want to do 
  Make the content as straightforward as possible for kids, teens and non-tech adults to understand 
  How to Get the Most out of this Book 
  For starters, don't skip between chapters. You might get your light-bulb moment as you read through the first chapter, but make sure you understand all your options before deciding on one particular coding project.
