Sinopsis

"BACnet Engineering and Protocol Design"Comprehensive and meticulously structured, "BACnet Engineering and Protocol Design" is the definitive resource for understanding the technical foundations and modern applications of the BACnet protocol in building automation systems (BAS). Beginning with a thorough historical and conceptual overview, the book explores BACnet’s evolution, its regulatory standing as an international standard, and practical use cases that illustrate its critical role in integrating and managing smart building technologies. Comparisons with alternative protocols such as LON, Modbus, and KNX, as well as detailed architectural discussions, contextualize BACnet’s enduring relevance in today’s interconnected environments.Delving deep into the protocol’s engineering mechanisms, the book guides readers through BACnet’s object-oriented data model, application-layer services, and networking principles. Topics such as dynamic object discovery, property and alarm management, advanced transport methods, and the architectural intricacies of BACnet/IP are covered with clarity. Robust chapters on security provide a contemporary treatment of threat modeling, risk mitigation, and the secure evolution of BACnet through features like BACnet/SC. Practical considerations for high-availability, diagnostics, and performance optimization ensure this text is as valuable for practitioners deploying mission-critical BAS as it is for developers designing robust protocol stacks.Rounding out its technical depth, the book addresses BACnet’s integration with IT environments—cloud platforms, web services, and AI—through real-world case studies and future-oriented discussions. Readers will gain insight into trends such as semantic data modeling, digital twins, green building compliance, and the growing impact of open source and community-driven innovation. Whether used as an engineering manual, a reference for protocol designers, or a strategic guide for enterprise integration, "BACnet Engineering and Protocol Design" offers an authoritative and forward-looking perspective on the intelligent buildings of today and tomorrow.

    A never-before-heard firsthand account of a government insider's experience on the cutting edge of UFO exploration; includes a new afterword"Forget everything you think you know about UFOs - this insider's account exposes the reality... Packed with top grade information, insightful analysis and fascinating anecdotes, Alexander's interesting and controversial book sets the gold standard for titles on this subject." –Nick Pope, author of Open Skies, Closed Minds"Changes the playing field for both true believers and skeptics alike. Alexander strongly warns, be careful what you wish for when asking for presidential intervention.  Success could set the field of ufology back decades." --George Noory, host of Coast to Coast AMWhile still on active duty in the U.S. Army during the 1980s, Colonel John B. Alexander, Ph.D. created an interagency group to explore the controversial topic of UFOs. All members held Top Secret clearance. What they discovered was not at all what was expected. UFOs covers the numerous cases they saw, and answers questions like:• What was really in Hanger 18? • Did a UFO land at Holloman Air Force Base? • What happened at Roswell? • What is Majestic 12? • What is the Aviary? • What does the government know about UFOs? • What has happened with disclosure in other countries? • Has the U.S. reverse engineered a UFO? • Why don't presidents get access to UFO info? UFOs is at once a complete account of Alexander's findings, and a call to action. There are no conspiracy theories here—only hard facts—but they are merely the beginning. Foreword by Jacques F.

    Medical genetics is the branch of medicine that focuses on the role of genetic variations in human health and disease. It encompasses the study of inherited disorders, genetic predisposition to diseases, and the application of genetics in medical practice. Understanding the fundamentals of medical genetics is crucial for diagnosing, treating, and preventing genetic conditions. 
    Genes, composed of DNA, serve as the blueprint for the development and functioning of the human body. DNA is organized into chromosomes, with humans typically having 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs. Of these, 22 pairs are autosomes, and one pair consists of sex chromosomes (XX in females and XY in males). Each parent contributes one chromosome per pair, ensuring genetic diversity. 
    Mutations, or changes in DNA sequences, play a key role in medical genetics. These mutations can be inherited or acquired and may lead to genetic disorders. Some mutations are benign, while others can disrupt normal biological functions, leading to conditions such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Huntington’s disease. Mutations can be classified into different types, including point mutations, insertions, deletions, and chromosomal abnormalities.

    Bot farms, fake news, and AI propaganda are rewriting what we think is real. 
    Every day, millions of invisible accounts and automated networks fight for your attention. Some sell products. Some push politics. Many exist only to keep you angry, distracted, or uncertain. 
    Reality Hacked pulls back the curtain on the hidden systems that shape what we see and believe online. It shows how bot farms amplify outrage, how “firehose of falsehood” tactics flood social media with conflicting stories, and how artificial intelligence now manufactures entire people, movements, and events from data. 
    You’ll discover:Why truth feels harder to recognize in the digital age — and who profits from the confusion.How propaganda has evolved from state operations to a global industry run by marketers, influencers, and algorithms.How AI makes manipulation faster, cheaper, and more personal than ever.Simple, practical habits that help you see through the noise and protect your mind from engineered emotion. 
    Clear, grounded, and surprisingly hopeful, Reality Hacked explains the new rules of an online world where everything competes for belief — and how to stay human when reality itself is up for debate.

    American tackle football is an industry like any other. And like many industries, it sells a product that is dangerous to those who use it—or, in this case, those who play it. Daniel S. Goldberg explores the connections among traumatic brain injury, collision sports, and the industry's continuing efforts to manufacture doubt. Focusing especially on youths and adolescents—the most vulnerable population that comprises over 99% of tackle football players in the US—Goldberg addresses the ethical and social implications of their participation in tackle football. 
     
     
     
    As the tackle football industry has consistently worked to mask the health hazards, it has used a particular tool that has proved highly effective in achieving this subterfuge: the manufacture of doubt. Goldberg advocates for using public health laws as a tool for countering these efforts at obfuscation, and he outlines specific policy proposals intended to address the population health and ethical problems presented by tackle football. 
     
     
     
    The book draws on public health ethics, public health law, and the histories of occupational and public health to assess the limits of parental choice to expose their children to risks of injury. Chris Nowinski, former Harvard football player and WWE wrestler, provides a timely and insider's perspective on these critical issues in the foreword.
