  You are probably not aware, because of their hidden nature, but artificial intelligence systems are all around you affecting some of the biggest areas of your life—jobs, loans, kids, mental health, relationships, freedoms, and even healthcare decisions that can determine if you live or die. As an executive working in AI at one of the largest, most sophisticated tech companies on the planet, Cortnie Abercrombie saw firsthand how the corporate executives and data science teams of the Fortune 500 think about and develop AI systems. In this book she makes it easy to understand how AI works and unveils what companies are doing with AI that can impact you the most. Most importantly, she offers practical advice on what you can do about it today and the change you should demand for the future. 
   
   
   
  This book addresses the pressing questions that non-insiders want answered, including: how does AI work (in words you don't need a PhD to understand)?; how can AI affect my job, replace me, or prevent my hire?; is AI involved in life-or-death decisions in healthcare?; could my digital accounts or home network be hacked because of my AI-based smart TV, coffeemaker, or robot vacuum?; how does AI know so much about me, what does it know, and can it be used against me?; can it manipulate people to do things they wouldn't normally?; and much more.

  "Hacking and Network Protocols: Strategies for Protection and Penetration in Networking" is an essential guide that bridges the gap between network defense and offensive tactics, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles that drive both protection and penetration in modern networks. 
  This book dives deep into the architecture of network protocols, uncovering the mechanics that govern their operation and how they can be both a target for hackers and a line of defense for network administrators. Readers will learn about the various types of attacks that can be carried out against network protocols, from man-in-the-middle attacks to denial of service (DoS) disruptions, and how such vulnerabilities can be exploited by malicious actors. 
  But more than just understanding attacks, this book focuses heavily on defense mechanisms. It outlines strategic approaches to securing networks, from deploying advanced encryption practices to setting up comprehensive intrusion detection systems. Each chapter presents real-world scenarios and case studies, allowing readers to explore the consequences of both weak and robust network defenses. 
  Expert interviews and commentary provide insights into the evolving landscape of network security, offering foresight into future challenges and the technologies being developed to counter them. Whether you are a cybersecurity professional aiming to enhance your tactical skills or a network administrator seeking to fortify your infrastructure, "Hacking and Network Protocols" offers the knowledge and strategies needed to understand and manipulate the framework of network security effectively.

  The Illusionist Brain - The...

  How do magicians make us see the impossible? The Illusionist Brain takes you on an unforgettable journey through the inner workings of the human mind, revealing how magicians achieve their spectacular and seemingly impossible effects by interfering with your cognitive processes. Along the way, this lively and informative book provides a guided tour of modern neuroscience, using magic as a lens for understanding the unconscious and automatic functioning of our brains. 
   
   
   
  We construct reality from the information stored in our memories and received through our senses, and our brains are remarkably adept at tricking us into believing that our experience is continuous. In fact, our minds create our perception of reality by elaborating meanings and continuities from incomplete information, and while this strategy carries clear benefits for survival, it comes with blind spots that magicians know how to exploit. Jordi Camí and Luis Martínez explore the many different ways illusionists manipulate our attention and take advantage of our individual predispositions and fragile memories. 
   
   
   
  The Illusionist Brain draws on the latest findings in neuroscience to explain how magic deceives us, surprises us, and amazes us, and demonstrates how illusionists skillfully "hack" our brains to alter how we perceive things and influence what we imagine.

  Personal Privacy in the Age of...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  For two decades, privacy has remained at the center of public debate, with repeated reports of cyber privacy violations highlighting the urgent need for clearer regulation. Yet fundamental questions persist: What is privacy? Where does the private sphere end and the public begin? How does privacy relate to freedom, autonomy, and liberty? How should individual rights be balanced against the public’s right to know in an era of pervasive information and communication technologies (ICTs)? 
  In this audiobook, Yair Oppenheim reviews existing definitions of personal privacy and distills their core components. He proposes dividing privacy into two categories: deep personal privacy and general personal privacy. By shifting the discussion toward deep and general personal privacy information, he draws a clear boundary around deep personal privacy when analyzing the impact of ICTs. 
  Oppenheim argues that until the age of ICTs, deep personal privacy was largely inaccessible and therefore not culture-dependent, unlike general personal privacy, which has always varied across cultures. While ICTs affect both types, their most profound impact lies in enabling, for the first time in history, the exposure of deep personal privacy. This sphere, he contends, is a fundamental human need, essential not only for individuals but also for society as a whole. 
  Dr. Yair Oppenheim holds degrees in mathematics, computer science, business, and cyber security, and earned his Ph.D. from Tel Aviv University’s Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas. He has managed IT and information systems for multinational corporations including Delta-Galil, GE Healthcare, and Teva Pharmaceuticals.

  Life on Mars: Myth, Science, and the Future is a sweeping exploration of humanity’s long-standing fascination with the Red Planet—blending ancient myths, groundbreaking scientific discoveries, and the bold visions shaping our interplanetary future. From the god of war in ancient cultures to the canals imagined by 19th-century astronomers, from science fiction’s alien civilizations to the high-tech rovers searching for microbial life, Mars has always stirred the human imagination. 
  This book traces our evolving relationship with Mars—through culture, history, and cutting-edge research. It dives into the planet’s geology, climate, and potential for harboring life, while also confronting the challenges of colonization, terraforming, and space ethics. What does Mars teach us about life on Earth? Could it be our future home—or a silent witness to our ambitions? 
  Thoughtful, engaging, and deeply researched, Life on Mars offers readers a rich narrative of curiosity, discovery, and the unyielding human desire to reach for the stars.
