  Nature isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. But today the majority of the world’s population lives in some form of urban environment. And by 2050, two-thirds of humanity will live in towns and cities. 
  Studies have shown that a daily walk in the woods can improve our health and happiness, that those who can observe a natural scene through a hospital window will recover faster. The sound of birds, the smell of tree oils, the presence of free-flowing water – these are all vital to our wellbeing. So as the human footprint of brick, concrete and metal expands, how do we protect our connection to the natural world? 
  In Wild Cities, Chris Fitch leads us around the world in search of answers, visiting pioneering cities and meeting the people working at the forefront of this issue. From the tiny urban forests in Tokyo and the star-rich skies of Flagstaff, to the meandering river of Munich and lions prowling through gardens in Nairobi, this is a globe-spanning look at how to bring nature into the places we live – and how to create the wild cities of the future. 
  In Wild Cities, Chris Fitch takes us on a journey through the latest advancements in architecture and planning, focusing on the integration of natural habitats into our urban landscapes. This non-fiction book is a must-read for those with an interest in ecotourism and community gardening, offering a unique perspective on how we can use land to create ecosystems within our cities. 
  For fans of Travis Elborough (The Writer's Journey), Alastair Bonnett (Off the Map), Edward Brooke-Hitching (The Devil's Atlas), Ian Mortimer (Medieval Horizons), and Merlin Sheldrake (Entangled Life).

  Burp Suite is an integrated platform/graphical tool for performing security testing of web applications. Burp suite is a java application that can be used to secure or crack web applications. The suite consists of different tools, like a proxy server, a web spider an intruder and a so-called repeater, with which requests can be automated. You can use Burp's automated and manual tools to obtain detailed information about your target applications.
  Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) is a PHP/MySQL web application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goals are to be an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools in a legal environment, help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications and aid teachers/students to teach/learn web application security in a class room environment.
  In this report I am using a combination of Burp tools to detect and exploit vulnerabilities in Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) with low security. By default, Burp Scanner scans all requests and responses that pass through the proxy. Burp lists any issues that it identifies under Issue activity on the Dashboard. You can also use Burp Scanner to actively audit for vulnerabilities. Scanner sends additional requests and analyzes the application's traffic and behavior to identify issues.
  Various examples are outlined in this report for different types of vulnerabilities such as: SQL injection, Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Cross-site scripting, File upload, Local and Remote File Inclusion. I tested various types of penetration testing tools in order to exploit different types of vulnerabilities. The report consists from the following parts:
  1. Installing and Configuring BurpSuite
  2. BurpSuite Intruder.
  3. Installing XMAPP and DVWA App in Windows System.
  4. Installing PHP, MySQL, Apache2, Python and DVWA App in Kali Linux.
  5. Scanning Kali-Linux and Windows Using .
  6. Understanding Netcat, Reverse Shells and Bind Shells.
  7. Adding Burps Certificate to Browser.
  8. Setting up Target Scope in BurpSuite.
  9. Scanning Using BurpSuite.
  10. Scan results for SQL Injection Vulnerability with BurpSuite and Using SQLMAP to Exploit the SQL injection.
  11. Scan Results for Operating System Command Injection Vulnerability with BurpSuite and Using Commix to Exploit the OS Command Injection.
  12. Scan Results for Cross Side Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability with BurpSuite, Using Xserve to exploit XSS Injection and Stealing Web Login Session Cookies through the XSS Injection.
  13. Exploiting File Upload Vulnerability.
  14: Exploiting Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Vulnerability.
  15. Exploiting File Inclusion Vulnerability.
  16. References.

  Monkey to Man - The Evolution of...

  The first book to examine the iconic depiction of evolution, the "march of progress," and its role in shaping our understanding of how humans evolved 
   
   
    
  We are all familiar with the "march of progress," the representation of evolution that depicts a series of apelike creatures becoming progressively taller and more erect before finally reaching the upright human form. Its emphasis on linear progress has had a decisive impact on public understanding of evolution, yet the image contradicts modern scientific conceptions of evolution as complex and branching. 
   
   
    
  This book is the first to examine the origins and history of this ubiquitous and hugely consequential illustration. In a story spanning more than a century, from Victorian Britain to America in the Space Age, Gowan Dawson traces the interconnected histories of the two most important versions of the image: the frontispiece to Thomas Henry Huxley's Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature (1863) and "The Road to Homo Sapiens," a fold-out illustration in the bestselling book Early Man (1965). Dawson explores how the recurring appearances of this image pointed to shifting scientific and public perspectives on human evolution, as well as indicated novel artistic approaches, and advancements in technology.

  Drawing Out Leviathan -...

  " . . . are dinosaurs social constructs? Might not all of our beliefs about dinosaurs merely be figments of the paleontological imagination? A few years ago such questions would have seemed preposterous, even nonsensical. Now they must have a serious answer." 
   
   
   
  At stake in the "Science Wars" that have raged in academe and in the media is nothing less than the standing of science in our culture. One side argues that science is a "social construct," that it does not discover facts about the world, but rather constructs artifacts disguised as objective truths. This view threatens the authority of science and rejects science's claims to objectivity, rationality, and disinterested inquiry. Drawing Out Leviathan examines this argument in the light of some major debates about dinosaurs: the case of the wrong-headed dinosaur, the dinosaur "heresies" of the 1970s, and the debate over the extinction of dinosaurs. 
   
   
   
  Keith Parsons claims that these debates show that evidence and logic remained vitally important. They show science to be a complex set of activities, pervaded by social influences, and not easily reducible to any stereotype. Parsons acknowledges that there are lessons to be learned by scientists from their would-be adversaries, and the book concludes with some recommendations for ending the Science Wars.
