  Examples of leader actions and decisions—some humorous, some tragic—that will help guide you whether you are a military officer or a civilian in an office.   John Chapman is a longstanding observer and chronicler of leadership events. In Muddy Boots Leadership, he describes 285 military leadership situations and the actions leaders have taken to meet the issue at hand. The leadership lessons learned and relearned by military leaders are applicable to a wide variety of organizations, both civil and military. Many are truly surprising; all are written with a certain “spark” that those in leadership positions will immediately understand. The text is augmented with some truly classic sidebars.  “When officers are being asked to ‘do everything with nothing,’ it costs a leader nothing but muddy boots to walk with them—and it can inspire extraordinary effort . . . It doesn’t take money to get your boots muddy and lead by example. It does take courage and effort.” —Officer.com

  The Fourth History of Man

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Fourth History of Man continues with virus infections where The Third History of Man left off hashing-out those specks of genetic schmutz, covering the R-naught of those naughty infectious scoundrels. Some big hitters will be considered, from polio and the famous celebrities that had it, through fifty shades of hepatitis, rabies and the hair of the dog, and the monkey business of HIV and AIDS. Leaving viruses, we’ll delve into a study of parasites, including the parasite of all parasites, Sigourney Weaver’s alien. Opening up a can-of-worms we’ll launch a nerd rumble: who would win between Weaver’s Alien and Schwarzenegger’s Predator. Other topics include the sociology of a social death preceding the actual death, the sociology of sexual cannibalism, and the sociology of colors, not just of yellow fever, but of other emotions under the rainbow, hopefully not making you feel positively blue. On the science side we’ll flip the script on the infamous Krebs cycle fleeced of the boring jargon that usually flows from the lecture hall and our road will scrutinize nuclear bombs, nuclear footballs and weapons of mass destruction, the secret of Ondine’s curse, and lessons in global warming.

The book will help you implement data asset management, identity and access management, network security, vulnerability management, incident response, and compliance in your cloud environment. 
  This book helps cybersecurity teams strengthen their security posture by mitigating cyber risk when "targets" shift to the cloud. The book will assist you in identifying security issues and show you how to achieve best-in-class cloud security. It also includes new cybersecurity best practices for daily, weekly, and monthly processes that you can combine with your other daily IT and security operations to meet NIST criteria. 
  This book teaches how to leverage cloud computing by addressing the shared responsibility paradigm required to meet PCI-DSS, ISO 27001/2, and other standards. It will help you choose the right cloud security stack for your ecosystem. Moving forward, we will discuss the architecture and framework, building blocks of native cloud security controls, adoption of required security compliance, and the right culture to adopt this new paradigm shift in the ecosystem.

  25% of the royalties of this book will be donated to Dr. Seyfrieds research (See KetoforCancer.net)! This research will actually make a real impact, as it studies the real causes and treatment opportunities of cancer. 
  This book is an overview of Dr. Thomas Seyfrieds scientific work, regarding that Cancer is a metabolic disease. It comprisesTranscripts of his talks and interviews that summarize all his most important points, as well asA Presentation by his collegue Dr. Dominic D'Agostiono about the "Press Pulse Strategy" andA possible way of eating, that would prevent cancer from the get go: The RockSolid Diet (by J.Rockermeier) 
  Here the description of his scientific work: 
  "Cancer as a metabolic disease" addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited.This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. 
  Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate. 
  This book comprises the opinion of Dr. Thomas Seyfried regarding the metabolic nature of cancer. He states, that it is not genetic, but a mitochondrial disease. 
  This book is NOT a summary of his original, scientific book. It's rather a collection of video transcripts, that summarize his point. With official permission, because we donate 25% of the royalties directly to his research!
