Sinopse

Air Raid Facts explores the multifaceted impacts of aerial warfare on urban environments and civilian populations, offering a comprehensive analysis of its historical evolution and ethical considerations. The book examines the strategic and tactical development of air raids, highlighting how military objectives often overshadow the devastating consequences for non-combatants. Readers will gain insight into the psychological and societal repercussions experienced by those caught in the crossfire, as well as the lasting effects on urban infrastructure. 

 
The book's approach involves a detailed examination of case studies, ranging from the Blitz in London to strategic bombing campaigns in Vietnam and the Persian Gulf War, providing a historical analysis of each event. Each case study dissects the military objectives, methods employed, the immediate destruction, and the long-term social, economic, and environmental consequences. Through careful use of official military records, eyewitness accounts, and statistical data, the book challenges traditional narratives of military history and pushes for a more nuanced ethical consideration of aerial warfare.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the fundamental principles of air raid strategy and technology, then transitions into specific historical events, concluding with an analysis of the evolving legal and ethical frameworks surrounding aerial warfare. This journey provides readers with a deeper understanding of the realities of modern warfare and the ongoing debates surrounding the proportionality of force and the protection of civilian populations.

    "O where are the sympathies of Christians for the slave and where are their exertions for their liberation? . . . It seems as if the church were asleep."
    David Ingraham, 1839
    In 2015, the historian Chris Momany helped discover a manuscript that had been forgotten in a storage closet at Adrian College in Michigan. He identified it as the journal of a nineteenth-century Christian abolitionist and missionary, David Ingraham. As Momany and a fellow historian Doug Strong pored over the diary, they realized that studying this document could open new conversations for twenty-first-century Christians to address the reality of racism today. They invited a multiracial team of fourteen scholars to join in, thus launching the Dialogue on Race and Faith Project.
    Awakening to Justice presents the groundbreaking work of these scholars. In addition to reflecting on Ingraham's journal, chapters also explore the life and writings of two of Ingraham's Black colleagues, James Bradley and Nancy Prince. Appendixes feature writings by all three abolitionists so readers can engage the primary sources directly.
    Through considering connections between the revivalist, holiness, and abolitionist movements; the experiences of enslaved and freed people; abolitionists' spiritual practices; various tactics used by abolitionists; and other themes, the authors offer insight and hope for Christians concerned about racial justice. They highlight how Christians associated with Charles Finney's style of revivalism formed intentional, countercultural communities such as Oberlin College to be exemplars of interracial cooperation and equality.
    Christians have all too often compromised with racism throughout history, but that's not the whole story. Hearing the prophetic witness of revivalist social justice efforts in the nineteenth century can provide a fresh approach to today's conversations about race and faith in the church.

    Ransom War - How Cyber Crime...

    This timely book explores the alarming rise of ransomware: malicious software blocking users from their systems or data until they've paid money to regain access or to prevent the release of sensitive information. High-profile British examples of the twenty-first century have targeted national libraries and healthcare organizations; in the US, hackers of Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley Health Network held patient data hostage—when their demands went unmet, they published topless photographs of women with breast cancer. 
     
     
     
    The issue presents formidable challenges and costs for businesses, national security and, as the Pennsylvania case showed, individuals—often society's most vulnerable. But we can watch and learn from cyber extortionists, leaving us better prepared for next time. In 2022, a series of devastating ransomware attacks prompted Costa Rica's president to declare a national emergency, describing a "state of war." This episode had much to tell us about how these networks arise, operate, organize—and collapse. 
     
     
     
    Max Smeets's landmark study demystifies the ransomware playbook, from funding to networking. Through one of the largest ransomware operations on record, he reveals how this challenge has evolved, how it differs in substance and style from traditional cyber/hacking threats, and how to combat it.
