Sinopse

Kryptos Cipher explores the captivating mystery of the encrypted sculpture at CIA headquarters, created by artist Jim Sanborn. Since its installation in 1990, this four-part cipher has challenged intelligence experts, mathematicians, and amateur codebreakers alike. The book delves into the intersection of art, technology, and Cold War history, revealing the intricate layers of cryptography and the unwavering determination to unlock the sculpture's final, elusive message. While some sections have been solved, revealing intriguing secrets, the "K4" section remains an enigma, fueling ongoing decryption efforts. This book presents a comprehensive account of the Kryptos puzzle by examining its historical context, the fundamentals of cryptography, and the collaborative attempts to crack the code. Drawing upon interviews with Sanborn, analyses of intelligence agency information, and cryptographic expertise, the book avoids technical jargon. It progresses by dissecting each of the four sections of the cipher, showcasing the evolution of cryptographic techniques.

    In The Silver Women, Joan Flores-Villalobos argues that Black West Indian women made the Panama Canal construction possible by providing the indispensable everyday labor of social reproduction. West Indian women built a provisioning economy that fed, housed, and cared for the segregated Black West Indian labor force, in effect subsidizing the construction effort and the racial calculus that separated pay in silver for Black workers and gold for white Americans. But while also subject to racial discrimination and segregation, West Indian women mostly worked outside the umbrella of US canal authorities. They did not hold contracts, had little access to official services and wages, and received pay in both silver and gold. From this position, they found ways to skirt, and at times subvert, the legal, moral, and economic parameters imperial authorities sought to impose on the migrant workforce. West Indian women developed important strategies of claims-making, kinship, community building, and market adaptation that helped them navigate the contradictions and violence of the US empire. These strategies of social reproduction nurtured further West Indian migrations, linking Panama to places like Harlem and Santiago de Cuba. The Silver Women is thus a history of Black women's labor of social reproduction as integral to US imperial infrastructure, the global Caribbean diaspora, and women's own survival.

    Apologise… Hell, No! The Power of an Apology in an Entitled World is a visceral read that explores the ups and down of the apology in a world that's forgetting how to say sorry and mean it. Combining personal memoir, along with some practical advice this book is rich in its openness and evocative enough to challenge, assist and uplift you as it takes both a light-hearted and serious look at the different uses of the apology spanning stoic philosophers, Stick Man, #MeToo, Black Lives Matter, narcissism, entitlement, slavery and WW1 to name but a few. 
    "A deeply personal yet systematic approach to the delicate art of apologizing." — Kirkus Reviews 
     "Unflinching honesty that has translated into something rich and evocative." — Sara Starbuck

    Gun rights and control are well-trodden subjects, with prior work supporting the right of citizens to own firearms, discussing the failure of gun control efforts, or warning about or exhorting citizen gun ownership, among other things. Although social media in their many forms have only come to dominate modern U.S. life during the past decade, there has been little academic exploration of gun owner communities on the Internet and social media. How do gun owners use social media? How do they meet other gun owners online? What do they talk about as relates to guns? With a massive and well-organized collection of support material, Guns on the Internet faces these questions with an unbiased approach that seeks a foundation for mutual understanding.

    Many people take it for granted: Evangelicals are Republican, Democrats aren't religious, and moderate Christians may as well not exist. But it wasn't always this way. Those who grew up evangelical in the 1980s were just as likely to sit next to a Democrat as a Republican at church. What happened in the decades that followed?Data scientist Ryan Burge demystifies the recent polarization of American pews, helping listeners understand why the religious landscape has changed so much in the last fifty years and how this divide impacts every aspect of society. Burge argues that Americans prioritized their political parties over their denominations amid the culture wars. As many churches embraced conservative politics, moderate and liberal Christians left the church in droves.Yet Burge shows us that returning to church may be just what America needs. Many Americans want to be people of faith and believe deeply in the principles of religion. Churches provide support systems for needy families. And statistically, churchgoers tend to be more tolerant and have better mental health than Americans who don't attend church. Blending personal narrative and carefully presented data, Burge urges listeners to rebuild faith communities that can reach across the aisle.
