Sinopse

Fridtjof Nansen's monumental two-volume work, *In Northern Mists*, serves as an intricate exploration of the Arctic and its profound historical, geographical, and cultural significance. The narrative weaves together travelogue, scientific inquiry, and historical analysis, all delivered with Nansen's characteristic eloquence and meticulous detail. Drawing upon rich firsthand experiences from his polar expeditions, he vividly captures the stark beauty and haunting isolation of the North, while simultaneously engaging with the myths and realities that envelop this enigmatic region. Fridtjof Nansen, a pioneering Norwegian explorer and diplomat, blossomed during the late 19th century'Äîa time marked by intense curiosity about the polar regions. His distinguished career, marked by not only exploration but also achievements in oceanography and humanitarian efforts, provided him with a unique lens to examine Northern cultures and geographies. Nansen's breadth of experience through his Arctic voyages shaped his understanding of the complex interplay between nature and human endeavors. *Northern Mists* is highly recommended for anyone interested in the intersection of adventure and scholarship. Nansen's reflective prose and immersive storytelling not only enlighten readers about the Arctic's allure but also establish a dialogue on humanity'Äôs relationship with the environment. This work is an essential read for explorers of both the physical and intellectual landscapes.

    Racoons are not the only bandits wearing masks in the wilderness. Growing up, author Kennie Prince spent most of his time in the woods and creeks near his home in Rankin County, Mississippi. A highly skilled outdoorsman, Prince began his career with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife Conservation in 1983 and dedicated his life to protecting Mississippi's fish and wildlife resources in dangerous undercover work. The Poacher's Nightmare: Stories of an Undercover Game Warden contains dozens of hair-raising accounts of covert wildlife operations, often spanning years, requiring ingenious planning, complicated secrecy, and deft coordination. 
     
     
     
    Prince infiltrated bloody-minded, wary criminal groups, winning their trust. When his traps were fully set, he involved other state and federal law enforcement officials to bring an abrupt halt to abominable thefts of vast fish and wildlife resources from the public trust. Smart, creative, knowledgeable, tenacious, disciplined, passionate, and a natural-born actor, Prince bore a unique skill set that made him an ideal fit for this perilous undertaking. This memoir details how Prince gained the confidence of tightly knit circles of loyal, leery poachers and put an end to their destructive evil.

    The fastest-growing malware in the world
    The core functionality of ransomware is two-fold: to encrypt data and deliver the ransom message. This encryption can be relatively basic or maddeningly complex, and it might affect only a single device or a whole network.
    Ransomware is the fastest-growing malware in the world. In 2015, it cost companies around the world $325 million, which rose to $5 billion by 2017 and is set to hit $20 billion in 2021. The threat of ransomware is not going to disappear, and while the number of ransomware attacks remains steady, the damage they cause is significantly increasing.  
    It is the duty of all business leaders to protect their organisations and the data they rely on by doing whatever is reasonably possible to mitigate the risk posed by ransomware. To do that, though, they first need to understand the threats they are facing.
    The Ransomware Threat Landscape
    This book sets out clearly how ransomware works, to help business leaders better understand the strategic risks, and explores measures that can be put in place to protect the organisation. These measures are structured so that any organisation can approach them. Those with more resources and more complex environments can build them into a comprehensive system to minimise risks, while smaller organisations can secure their profiles with simpler, more straightforward implementation.
    Suitable for senior directors, compliance managers, privacy managers, privacy officers, IT staff, security analysts and admin staff – in fact, all staff who use their organisation's network/online systems to perform their role – The Ransomware Threat Landscape: Prepare for, recognise and survive ransomware attacks will help readers understand the ransomware threat they face.
    From basic cyber hygiene to more advanced controls, the book gives practical guidance on individual activities, introduces implementation steps organisations can take to increase their cyber resilience, and explores why cyber security is imperative. Topics covered include:
    
    - Introduction
    - About ransomware
    
    - Basic measures
    - An anti-ransomware
    
    - The control framework

    Tympanology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study of the eardrum (tympanic membrane) and its role in hearing. It delves into the intricacies of ear health, diagnosing ear-related disorders, and understanding how the ear functions. The term "tympanology" is derived from "tympanum," which is the Latin word for the eardrum. This field of study is essential not only for understanding the anatomy and physiology of the ear but also for managing and treating various ear conditions that can affect a person’s hearing. 
    The ear is a sophisticated organ responsible for converting sound vibrations into electrical signals, which are then interpreted by the brain. The eardrum plays a pivotal role in this process. It is a thin, flexible membrane that vibrates in response to sound waves. These vibrations are transferred to the tiny bones of the middle ear and eventually to the inner ear, where they are converted into nerve signals. Thus, the eardrum acts as the first step in a complex process that allows humans to hear the world around them. 
    Tympanology covers a broad spectrum of topics, from the anatomy of the ear to the various disorders that can affect the ear, including infections, trauma, and diseases that impact the eardrum and overall hearing. By understanding the delicate structure and function of the eardrum, healthcare professionals can diagnose and treat a wide range of ear-related conditions. Diseases or damage to the eardrum can lead to hearing loss, which can profoundly impact an individual’s quality of life.
