Beyond Ethnic Loneliness - The...

Prasanta Verma

"So what are you? Go back where you belong!" 
 
 
 
Majority white American culture has historically marginalized people of color, who at times feel invisible and alienated and at other times are traumatized by oppression and public discrimination. This reality leads to a particular kind of aloneness: ethnic and racial loneliness. 
 
 
 
An Indian American immigrant who grew up in white Southern culture, Prasanta Verma names and sheds light on the realities of ethnic loneliness. She unpacks the exhausting effects of cultural isolation, the dynamics of marginalization, and the weight of being other. In the midst of disconnection and erasure, she points to the longing to belong, the need to share our stories, and the hope of finding safe friendships and community. Our places of exile can become places where we find belonging—to ourselves, to others, and to God.

Forgotten By Design - The Silent...

Hardik Goel

Ever opened a tab and forgotten why? 
Mid-scroll, mid-thought… and poof—it’s gone? 
No, it’s not just you. And no, it’s not early-onset anything, 
You’ve simply been Forgotten. By. Design. 
In Forgotten by Design: The Silent Epidemic of Digital Dementia, tech meets soul in this genre-bending, mind-bending manifesto on how your memory, focus, and very sense of time are being subtly stolen—and sold back to you. 
This isn’t another “digital detox” guilt trip. 
This is a call to remember who you were before 
the algorithm got your number. 
◆ Neuroscience meets Vedic rituals. 
◆ Ancient myths collide with dopamine loops. 
◆ Real-life stories, surreal insights, and soul-searching questions. 
Meet the yogi hidden in your nervous system, 
Decode the ghost data shaping your identity. 
And answer the only question that matters now: 
If your mind’s been outsourced to machines… 
what’s left of you? 
This is not self-help. This is self-awakening. 
(Warning: Once remembered, you can’t go back.)

Charles D. Freilich, Gabi...

In Israel and the Cyber Threat, Charles D. ("Chuck") Freilich, Matthew S. Cohen, and Gabi Siboni provide a detailed and comprehensive study of Israel's cyber strategy, tracing it from its origins to the present. They analyze Israel's highly advanced civil and military cyber capabilities and organizational structures to offer insights into what other countries can learn from Israel's experience. To achieve this, they explore how and why Israel has been able to build a remarkable cyber ecosystem and turn itself, despite its small size, into a global cyber power. The book further examines the major cyber threats facing Israel, including the most in-depth look at Iranian cyber policies and attacks; Israel's defensive and offensive capabilities and the primary attacks it has conducted; capacity building; international cooperation; and the impact of Israel's strategic culture on its cyber prowess. By placing Israel's actions in the realm of international relations theory, the book sheds light on many of the major questions in the field regarding cyber policies. 
 
 
 
The most authoritative work to date on Israeli cyber strategy, this book provides a comprehensive look at the major actions Israel has taken in cyberspace. It also places them in the broader context of global cyber developments to help listeners understand state behavior in cyberspace.
