Summary

Plastic Waste Consequences investigates the global crisis of plastic pollution, examining its far-reaching environmental and economic impacts. The book reveals how our reliance on plastics, despite their utility, has led to alarming consequences, including harm to marine life from microplastics and hidden economic costs linked to resource depletion. A key insight is that current waste management practices are unsustainable, necessitating a shift toward a circular economy.

 
The book is structured to provide a holistic understanding, beginning with an overview of the plastic lifecycle and its impact on various sectors like packaging and textiles. It then analyzes the role of governments and international organizations, assessing current regulations and proposing sustainable management strategies. By integrating environmental economics, public policy, and materials science, Plastic Waste Consequences offers a comprehensive analysis accessible to students, policymakers, and anyone interested in creating a sustainable future. This book distinguishes itself by using a systems-thinking approach. It highlights the interconnectedness of environmental, economic, and social factors within the plastic value chain. It progresses from problem exposition to systemic failure analysis, then to potential solutions.

    CISSP - Simple and Effective...

    This book is the best recipe for becoming an expert on information security. If you aspire to be a security expert by taking the CISSP exam, there is no shortage of books that claim to be the ultimate solution to information security. They dupe students into thinking that they are the only books on the market for this specific subject. 
    Well, they may be dubbed as the ultimate but are they the most reader-friendly books for this dry subject? Will there be any juice to be consumed by the reader and fiber to digest? Are those books written easy to under language? If those book authors have crammed their work with technical jargon, I must plead with you to avoid this confusion. 
    What makes this book different from the other books on the market is the fact that it is written in a lucid and coherent form. You will find all the topics well-connected and written in easy and simple language. The book contains the following topics: 
    •Security Principles 
    •Security Threats and Countermeasures 
    •Business Continuity Planning 
    •Incident Response Planning 
    •Security Models and Controls 
    •Secure Communications 
    •And lots more!

    "An impressive critique of the universal museum as complicit in the damages inflicted by colonial power" —Isaac Julien, artist and filmmaker 
     
     
     
    "Should fascinate anyone interested in social justice, post-colonialism and the arts" —Euronews 
     
     
     
    "Powerful and so relevant" —Diacritik 
     
     
     
    The Western museum is a battleground—a terrain of ideological, political, and economic contestation. Almost everyone today wants to rethink the museum, but how many have the audacity to question the idea of the universal museum itself? 
     
     
     
    In A Programme of Absolute Disorder, Françoise Vergès puts the museum in its place. Exploring the Louvre's history, she uncovers the context in which the universal museum emerged: as a product of colonialism, and of Europe's self-appointed claim to be the guardian of global heritage. 
     
     
     
    Vergès outlines a radical horizon: to truly decolonize the museum is to implement a "programme of absolute disorder", inventing other ways of apprehending the human and non-human world that nourish collective creativity and bring justice and dignity to the dispossessed.
