Summary

"Privacy Coins" examines the rise of cryptocurrencies designed to enhance user anonymity in an age of increasing digital surveillance. It explains how these coins, like Monero and Zcash, utilize technologies such as ring signatures and zero-knowledge proofs to offer greater privacy than traditional cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, where transactions are recorded on a public ledger. The book highlights the crucial role privacy coins could play in safeguarding individual liberties, while also acknowledging the potential for misuse, necessitating careful regulatory consideration. 

 
The book is structured in three parts; starting with the core concepts of privacy coins, then moving into the societal and political implications of the coins; and concluding with the future of privacy coins. It delves into the societal and political implications, exploring their potential use in circumventing censorship and empowering marginalized communities, while also addressing concerns about illicit activities. 

 
By combining technical analysis, legal scholarship, and economic research, this approach provides a balanced and comprehensive overview suitable for anyone interested in the intersection of digital privacy, financial technology, and politics.

    A behind-the-scenes look at how the military uses video game technology to train soldiers, treat veterans, and entice new recruitsHow does the U.S. military train its soldiers for new forms of armed conflict, all within the constraints of diminished defense budgets? Increasingly, the answer is cutting-edge video game technology. Corey Mead shows us training sessions where soldiers undertake multiplayer “missions” that test combat skills, develop unit cohesion, and teach cultural awareness. He immerses himself in 3-D battle simulations so convincing that they leave his heart racing. And he shows how the military, which has shaped American education more than any other force over the last century, fuels the adoption of games as learning tools—and recruitment come-ons. Mead also details how the military uses games to prepare soldiers for their return to the home front and to treat PTSD. Military-funded researchers were closely involved with the computing advances that led to the invention of the Internet. Now, as Mead proves, we are poised at the brink of a similar explosion in game technology. War Play reveals that many of tomorrow’s teaching tools, therapies, and entertainments can be found in today’s military.
