Richard Johnson

Sinopsis

"Firewall Fundamentals and Security Engineering""Firewall Fundamentals and Security Engineering" is a comprehensive resource that equips professionals and students with a deep understanding of firewall technologies in today’s complex IT environments. The book systematically covers the foundational architectures of firewalls, including traditional packet filters, stateful inspection, proxy-based solutions, and next-generation models, while situating them within the broader context of network security. By exploring the evolution of firewalls, their functional roles among other critical defenses, and deployment across physical, virtual, and cloud-native infrastructures, readers gain both historical context and cutting-edge insight into how firewalls underpin modern cybersecurity.Moving beyond architecture, the text delves into the technical intricacies of packet processing, inspection strategies, and the engineering of robust security policies. Readers will master advanced rule set design, conflict resolution, automated policy enforcement, application-layer filtering, and deep packet inspection—all vital for defending against sophisticated threats and maintaining regulatory compliance. Topics such as identity integration, content filtering, encrypted traffic analysis, and techniques to detect and respond to evasive attacks are explained in detail, empowering practitioners to address practical challenges in real-world settings.The book further explores advanced security engineering, cloud and microservices architectures, monitoring and incident response, and the ever-evolving legal and regulatory landscape. Coverage of emerging trends—such as AI-driven adaptive firewalls, Zero Trust models, post-quantum cryptography, and ethical considerations—ensures readers are prepared for the future of firewall technology. With its rigorous technical depth and practical focus, "Firewall Fundamentals and Security Engineering" is an indispensable guide for network architects, security engineers, and IT managers striving to build, manage, and future-proof resilient network defenses.

River of Lakes - A Journey on...

Bill Belleville

First explored by naturalist William Bartram in the 1760s, the St. Johns River stretches 310 miles along Florida's east coast, making it the longest river in the state. The first "highway" through the once wild interior of Florida, the St. Johns may appear ordinary, but within its banks are some of the most fascinating natural phenomena and historic mysteries in the state. The river, no longer the commercial resource it once was, is now largely ignored by Florida's residents and visitors alike. 
 
 
 
In the first contemporary book about this American Heritage River, Bill Belleville describes his journey down the length of the St. Johns, kayaking, boating, hiking its riverbanks, diving its springs, and exploring its underwater caves. He rediscovers the natural Florida and establishes his connection with a place once loved for its untamed beauty. Belleville involves scientists, environmentalists, fishermen, cave divers, and folk historians in his journey, soliciting their companionship and their expertise. River of Lakes weaves together the biological, cultural, anthropological, archaeological, and ecological aspects of the St. Johns, capturing the essence of its remarkable history and intrinsic value as a natural wonder.

Evolutionary Change: The New...

Douglas Grunther

In this 2024 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Douglas Grunther explores the intersection between quantum science, artificial intelligence, and human consciousness. Grunther states that we’re in the midst of a New Renaissance when the greatest knowledge and wisdom, both ancient and contemporary, is just a few keystrokes away through digital screens that billions around the planet can access. He helps us navigate the potential and cautions of this exchange of ideas and instantaneous flow of information that is in constant virtual movement as it crisscrosses the entire planet. He includes the three stages of emerging shifts in consciousness: Left brain to right-brain thinking, Printed word to digital screens, and Age of information to Age of Recognition. All this includes the intelligence of nature. 
Douglas Grunther is the creator and host of the Woodstock Roundtable an award winning radio talk show covering philosophy, depth psychology, and spiritual insight. He is also a dream work facilitator.

The First Three Minutes - A...

Steven Weinberg

A Nobel Prize-winning physicist explains what happened at the very beginning of the universe, and how we know“Science writing at its best.” ―New York Review of Books   Our universe has been growing for nearly fourteen billion years. But almost everything about it can be traced back to what happened in just the first three minutes of its existence. In this book, Nobel Laureate Steven Weinberg describes in wonderful detail what happened in these first three minutes. It is an exhilarating journey that begins with the Planck Epoch―the earliest period of time in the history of the universe―and goes through Einstein's Theory of Relativity, the Hubble red shift, and the detection of the cosmic microwave background. These incredible discoveries all form the foundation for what we now understand as the "standard model" of the origin of the universe. Clearly and accessibly written,The First Three Minutes is a modern-day classic, an unsurpassed explanation of where it is that everything really comes from.

Doctors at War - The Clandestine...

Ellen Hampton

Doctors at War tells the stories of physicians in France working to impede the German war effort and undermine French collaborators during the Occupation from 1940 to 1945. Determined to defeat the Third Reich's incursion, one group of prominent Paris doctors founded a medical network to treat injured Resistance fighters who they then secretly transported to Allied countries to avoid forced labor in Germany. Another team of medics organized a cabal focused on intelligence gathering and sabotage that became one of the largest in wartime France, even after the Gestapo arrested and imprisoned its leaders. Deported to concentration camps, these physicians continued to frustrate Nazi efforts by rendering aid and keeping their fellow prisoners alive. Others joined rural guerrilla camps to care for the young conscripts fighting to block German reinforcements from reaching Normandy after the D-Day landing. 
 
 
 
These stories add a crucial dimension to the history of Occupied France. Written for both historians and general listeners of World War II history, Doctors at War stands as a dramatic, character-driven account of physicians' courage and resilience in the face of evil. It serves as a window into life under a fascist regime and the travails of doctors who negotiated the terrifying moral labyrinth that was the German military's occupation of France.
