    A concise history of GPS, from its military origins to its commercial applications and ubiquity in everyday life. 
    GPS is ubiquitous in everyday life. GPS mapping is standard equipment in many new cars, and geolocation services are embedded in smart phones. GPS makes Uber and Lyft possible; driverless cars won't be able to drive without it. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Paul Ceruzzi offers a concise history of GPS, explaining how a once-obscure space technology became an invisible piece of our infrastructure, as essential to modern life as electric power or clean water.   
    GPS relays precise time and positioning information from orbiting satellites to receivers on the ground, at sea, and in the air. It operates worldwide, and its basic signals are free, although private companies can commodify the data provided. Ceruzzi recounts the origins of GPS and its predecessor technologies, including early aircraft navigation systems and satellites. He describes the invention of GPS as a space technology in the post-Apollo, pre-Space Shuttle years and its first military and commercial uses. Ceruzzi explains how the convergence of three major technological developments - the microprocessor, the Internet, and cellular telephony - enabled the development and application of GPS technology.

    "Blockchain and crypto currency mining as received a lot of attention in the past few decade, subsequently it is therefore understandable that so many books (Hardcopies and E-books), articles and publishing have been released for public information in the past few years about the subject matter of “blockchain”. A major loophole in recent publications is that they haven’t specifically described the working process of blockchain in ways that a non-specialist can understand; this book, however, breaks down the working process of blockchain to details that anyone can read up on. if you are interested in learning the intricate working processes of blockchain or you’re just looking to gather more general information, then this book is for you. Instead of searching through a plethora of books online without valuable information and getting yourself sunken into the vast abyss of nonsensical books that are sometimes too brief or too advance, this book breaks it down from the ground up. The technicality of crypto books might also cause you to lose interest totally, something which could be avoided if you found yourself a good book that discusses everything in a way that both beginners and experts can understand. 
    The purpose of this book is to build a bridge between the more sophisticated books that are based on too much technicality about and the more novice-based books that only provide very little information. This breakdown also involves reduction of complex words and big terminologies to the minimum, descriptions of terminologies were also defined objectively. 
    In a means to also support your interests in the subject of blockchain, we have provided some fun historical background about blockchain and most of technical aspects are discussed with fun analysis to help you create a great starting point for your presumably long term journey into Blockchain development. Congratulations for getting yourself a copy of this book.
