Sinopse

"Compact Cities" addresses the pressing issue of urban sprawl by advocating for high-density, sustainable urban environments. It challenges the assumption that sprawling suburbs are the ideal living environment, presenting compact urban design as a pathway to resource optimization and reduced ecological footprint. The book explores how well-planned compact cities can minimize environmental damage and foster vibrant, livable communities.

 
Intriguing facts include how urban sprawl contributes to climate change and the social isolation experienced by car-dependent populations. The book examines the evolution of urban planning, highlighting the environmental and social consequences of low-density development. It emphasizes the need for integrated approaches to urban planning and offers case studies of successful compact cities worldwide.

 
These examples showcase the integration of green spaces, efficient public transportation, and mixed-use developments that promote walkability and social interaction.

Code War - How Nations Hack Spy...

Allie Mellen

Cyberattacks are the ultimate geopolitical weapon of the twenty-first century. They are used to damage presidential campaigns, shut down electric grids, sway public sentiment, and cost businesses and governments alike billions of dollars. 
 
Popular culture portrays cyberattacks as unstoppable and mysterious actions taken by shadowy, unpredictable forces. 
 
They aren't. Code War: How Nations Hack, Spy, and Shape the Digital Battlefield shatters this depiction, revealing nation-state cyberattacks for what they are: calculated, measured actions to achieve state objectives. 
 
World-renowned cybersecurity expert Allie Mellen draws on her extensive experience with nation-state cyberattacks and AI threats to break down how and why nations deploy cyberattacks in their own unique ways, driven by their military doctrine, national history, and, most importantly, geopolitical strategy. 
 
Mellen deconstructs the most infamous cyberattacks of our time to reveal how and why attacks like Stuxnet, WannaCry, and NotPetya happened and how their success altered the international landscape. She juxtaposes these attacks against the brutal reality of how nations surveil, manipulate, and control their own citizens' data. 
 
An essential resource for individuals, business professionals, and government officials, Code War demonstrates how you can use this knowledge to understand and respond to the practical realities of nation-state cyberattacks.

Flatland: A Romance of Many...

Edwin A. Abbott

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by the English schoolmaster and clergyman Edwin Abbott Abbott. The story describes a two-dimensional world occupied by geometric figures, where of women are simple line-segments, while men are polygons with various numbers of sides. Written pseudonymous by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions. This masterpiece of science (and mathematical) fiction is a delightfully unique and highly entertaining satire that has charmed readers for more than 100 years.
