Summary

Network analysis is often taught with tiny or toy data sets, leaving you with a limited scope of learning and practical usage. Network Science with Python helps you extract relevant data, draw conclusions and build networks using industry-standard – practical data sets. You’ll begin by learning the basics of natural language processing, network science, and social network analysis, then move on to programmatically building and analyzing networks. You’ll get a hands-on understanding of the data source, data extraction, interaction with it, and drawing insights from it. This is a hands-on book with theory grounding, specific technical, and mathematical details for future reference. As you progress, you’ll learn to construct and clean networks, conduct network analysis, egocentric network analysis, community detection, and use network data with machine learning. You’ll also explore network analysis concepts, from basics to an advanced level. 
By the end of the book, you’ll be able to identify network data and use it to extract unconventional insights to comprehend the complex world around you.

    Inbox Between Us An - AI is not...

    Every organization has two versions of itself. There's the documented one — the processes, org charts, and values that make up the official story. Then there's the way things actually work: the workarounds people build because the real process doesn't fit, the spreadsheets no one asked for but everyone depends on, the conversations where someone finally says what they actually need. That second version has always been there. It's how businesses actually run. And AI just walked into the middle of it. An Inbox Between Us is not a framework, a productivity system, or a technology roadmap. David Dean draws on nearly 20 years inside complex organizations — close to the real decisions, workarounds, and human behavior that determine how work gets done — to examine what AI makes visible when it enters that environment. AI doesn't understand context, politics, or consequence. It processes what it's given — and in doing so, it surfaces patterns that were scattered, rationalized, or buried. What becomes visible is often uncomfortable. It's also an opportunity to self-realize — as a person and as an organization.  
 
In this audiobook, you'll hear: 
 
• Why organizations misunderstand how their own work gets done — and what AI reveals about the gap 
• How people creatively adapt around broken processes, and why those adaptations matter more than leaders realize 
• What it means to build trust with AI the way you'd build trust with a new team member — gradually, with guardrails you control 
• Why the people doing the undocumented work are the most important part of the equation 
 
Narrated by Zachary Locklear, this nine-hour audiobook is designed for the way working professionals often absorb ideas: during commutes, workouts, and the spaces between meetings. 
 
Independent Book Review calls it “a thoughtful and perceptive study of how people actually make decisions.” 
 
For leaders—and for anyone who has ever been handed AI and told to figure out what comes next.

    The mission of the CIA has always been intelligence. Seventy-five years ago, in the year of its creation, the National Security Act gave the agency, uniquely in world history up to that point, a democratic mandate to pursue that mission of intelligence. It gave the CIA a special standing in the conduct of United States foreign relations. That standing diminished when successive American presidents ordered the CIA to exceed its original mission. When they tasked the agency secretly to overthrow democratic governments, the United States lost its international standing, and its command of a majority in the United Nations General Assembly. Such dubious operations, even the government's embrace of assassination and torture, did not diminish the standing of the CIA in United States public opinion. However, domestic interventions did. CIA spying on domestic protesters led to tighter congressional oversight from the 1970s on. 
 
 
 
A Question of Standing offers a balanced narrative and perspective on recognizable episodes in the CIA's history. Famous incidents include the Bay of Pigs invasion, the War on Terror, 9/11, the weapons of mass destruction deception, the Iran estimate of 2007, the assassination of Osama bin Laden, and Fake News. The book also defends the CIA's exposure of foreign meddling in United States elections.

Imagine having all of you needs reduced to the things you can't live without; food, water, and shelter. 
In Footprint of a Heart, Shayla Paradeis, whose trail name is Kiddo, ventures off the path of musical theater at age 21 and moves from Manhattan to Montana. Trading tap shoes for hiking boots, she sculpts a life outdoors as a long-distance hiker. By age 34, she hiked the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide Trails, the Haute Route in the Alps, and the Te Araroa across New Zealand. As well as thousands of joyful miles running across the land of her dreams, Glacier National Park. All without a smart phone. 
Kiddo shares the trailside moments of five long journeys, including barren deserts, windy ridges above tree line, ocean tides in estuaries, narrow spaces between the painted lines of highways and guardrails, and countless peaks, passes, meadows, and valleys. Her ventures take her through swarms of bugs, knee-deep mud, every kind of precipitation imaginable, and the threat of rattlesnakes, bears, charging bulls, and one angry mama turkey. 
Journeys are often more internal than external. As she walks, she learns that counting miles can be a self-measurement as dangerous as body-image or money. The need to connect is the true north. With an openness taught through the trees, she experiences a fulfillment she never dreamed possible. Trails are no longer a thing to do, they're a place to be.
