  Comet Madness - How the 1910...

  Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed comets were evil portents. In 1705, Edmond Halley liberated humanity from these primordial superstitions, proving that Newtonian mechanics rather than the will of the gods brought comets into our celestial neighborhood. Despite this scientific advance, when Halley's Comet returned in 1910, newspapers gleefully provoked a global hysteria that unfolded with tragic consequences. 
   
   
   
  In Comet Madness, author and historian Richard J. Goodrich examines the 1910 appearance of Halley's Comet and the ensuing frenzy sparked by media manipulation, bogus science, and outright deception. 
   
   
   
  As the comet neared Earth, scientists and journalists alike scrambled to get the story straight as citizens the world over panicked. 
   
   
   
  As a result, workmen shelved their tools, farmers refused to plant crops they would never harvest, and formerly reliable people stopped paying their creditors. Others suffered mental breakdowns, and some took their own lives. 
   
   
   
  Comet Madness reveals how humans confront the unknown, how scientists learn about the world we inhabit, and how certain people—from outright hucksters to opportunistic journalists—harness fear to produce a profit.

If you are an IT professional wanting to further your career as a Cisco Certified professional, then it all starts with the new CCNA qualification. Recently, Cisco announced that they were revamping their certifications. They want to ensure their courses include all the latest technological innovations that pertain to their industry sector. On 23 February 2020 Cisco will be launching its new courses that affect each level of certification, from entry-level to architect level. They have retired some of their courses in an effort to streamline the certification path. Before, the CCNA consisted of multiple courses and exams, one for each network path, such as CCNA Cloud, CCNA Routing and Switching, CCNA Security. This meant three different courses and three different exams. The new CCNA replaces these individual CCNA courses and exams, which means one course covering a broader spectrum of IT fundamentals. It also means the IT professional only has to sit one exam to obtain their certificate! This book is a guide to help you discover the new CCNA certificate.

  Urban Renewal - Revitalizing...

  Urban renewal is a dynamic process aimed at rejuvenating and revitalizing urban areas that have fallen into disrepair or underutilization. It typically focuses on transforming old, decaying neighborhoods into vibrant, economically viable spaces. This concept, which has evolved over centuries, seeks to improve the quality of life for residents by addressing the physical, social, and economic issues within a community. Urban renewal is not just about physical transformation; it also serves as a tool to foster social and economic progress in cities. It represents a vision of growth and development, where cities evolve in response to changing needs, improving infrastructure, housing, and public amenities. 
  The roots of urban renewal trace back to the early industrial revolution when cities began to experience rapid growth, creating overcrowded, unsanitary, and often unsafe living conditions. As populations swelled and cities expanded, poor housing, inadequate infrastructure, and environmental degradation became major issues. In response, urban planners and policymakers introduced initiatives aimed at reshaping cities. Early efforts to address these challenges were often driven by large-scale demolitions and redevelopment, aiming to modernize the urban landscape and provide more organized, planned environments. 
  Urban renewal has, over time, become an essential strategy for tackling issues such as blight, poverty, and crime in urban areas. The mid-20th century saw the rise of large federal and municipal programs dedicated to rebuilding cities. These projects included the demolition of old buildings, the construction of new housing complexes, and the development of public spaces and infrastructure. However, these initiatives were often met with mixed results. While some neighborhoods flourished, others experienced the negative effects of gentrification, displacing long-standing residents and altering the community's fabric.
