  Now a sprawling video game franchise, Resident Evil has kept us on the edge of our seats for decades with its tried-and-true brand of jump scares, zombie action, and biological horror. But even decades after its release, we can't stop revisiting the original's thrills, chills, and sometimes unintentional spills. 
   
    
   
  Pop culture writer and horror cinephile Philip J Reed takes dead aim at 1996's Resident Evil, the game that named and defined the genre we now call "survival horror." While examining Resident Evil's influences from the worlds of film, literature, and video games alike, Reed's love letter to horror examines how the game's groundbreaking design and its atmospheric fixed-cam cinematography work to thrill and terrify players—and why that terror may even be good for you. 
   
   
   
  Featuring a foreword from Troma Entertainment legend Lloyd Kaufman and new interviews with the game's voice actors and its live-action cast, the book serves as the master of unlocking the behind-the-scenes secrets of Resident Evil, and shows how even a game filled with the most laughable dialogue can still scare the pants off of you.

  The Phantom Universe – A Glimpse into Hidden Dimensions pulls back the veil on the strangest theories and most daring ideas in modern physics and cosmology. This 3-in-1 volume takes readers on a thrilling intellectual journey through realities that may exist beyond the visible and measurable, challenging everything we thought we knew about the cosmos. 
  In The Phantom Cosmos, you'll explore the possibility of unseen structures influencing our universe—from shadow matter and mirror worlds to exotic particles that slip through our detectors unnoticed. Could the cosmos be home to entities or forces that never interact with light but still shape the fabric of space? 
  The Hidden Cosmos pushes even further, diving into theories of extra dimensions, parallel universes, and multiverse models. Drawing on ideas from string theory, M-theory, and cutting-edge astrophysics, this section unpacks how the universe might be far bigger, stranger, and more complex than our three-dimensional perception allows. 
  Finally, The Secret Universe explores the philosophical and scientific implications of a cosmos filled with secrets—hidden realms of energy, folded dimensions, and quantum anomalies. Could consciousness itself be linked to these unseen realities? Is our universe just one of countless others drifting in a higher-dimensional space? 
  Perfect for fans of speculative science and big questions, The Phantom Universe invites you to journey past the limits of ordinary thought and consider realities that may be hidden just beyond our reach. Blending science, imagination, and logic, this book reveals a universe far more mysterious—and magical—than we ever dreamed.

  The cryptocurrency world has transformed in a few short years from a niche subculture to a parallel economic universe. How do tens of thousands of financial actors make these new monies? What forces give cryptocurrencies their value—or take it away? And what does crypto's spectacular ascent reveal about the nature of money? 
   
   
   
  In this groundbreaking ethnographic analysis of crypto economies and their global markets and communities, Koray Caliskan offers an inside view of how cryptocurrencies are made and traded. He argues that cryptocurrency should be understood as "data money," a historically novel money type, created as the right to send data privately over an accounting infrastructure called blockchain. Drawing on two years of fieldwork among global cryptocurrency communities and in crypto markets, Caliskan makes visible the production principles of cryptocurrencies and explores how crypto exchanges work from within. He explains why and how we have been misunderstanding, underregulating, and improperly taxing crypto exchanges and actors. He also proposes a radically new way to make sense of new finance and its actors. An invaluable book for all listeners seeking to understand cryptocurrency, Data Money sheds new light on a profound transformation of finance and its possible future trajectories.
