Sinossi

"Riverside Views" offers a comprehensive exploration of the world's major river systems, weaving together their ecological significance and cultural importance throughout human history. The book expertly navigates through the complex relationships between rivers and civilization, examining how these waterways serve as both vital ecosystems and crucial resources for human development. Through detailed analysis of iconic rivers like the Amazon, Nile, Yangtze, and Mississippi, readers gain insight into how these dynamic systems shape landscapes and support biodiversity.

 
The book's three-part structure provides a logical progression from physical geography to ecosystem dynamics and human interactions. Starting with the fundamental aspects of river mechanics, including flow patterns and sediment transport, it builds toward an understanding of complex riverside ecosystems and their inhabitants. The final section bridges the gap between natural sciences and human development, exploring how civilizations have historically interacted with rivers and how modern challenges like climate change and urban development impact these vital waterways.

 
What sets this work apart is its multidisciplinary approach, combining hydrological data, ecological surveys, and anthropological studies to create a complete picture of river systems. The inclusion of case studies, detailed maps, and data visualizations makes complex concepts accessible to both scientists and general readers. By addressing current challenges such as pollution and water rights disputes while offering practical solutions for conservation, the book serves as an essential resource for environmental scientists, urban planners, and anyone interested in the future of our planet's river systems.

Jonathan Miller

Look Smart, Listen Smart: A Listener’s Guide to Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time is a clear, confidence-building companion to one of the most famous — and most challenging — popular science books ever written. 
Stephen Hawking’s classic asks some of the biggest questions imaginable: Did the universe have a beginning? What is time? Why do black holes matter? Can physics explain the whole of reality? This guide helps listeners understand the structure, ideas, and importance of Hawking’s book before committing to the full work. 
Written for curious non-specialists, it explains relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, the expanding universe, the arrow of time, wormholes, and the search for a unified theory in plain, intelligent language. It is not a substitute for Hawking’s original, but a serious orientation to it — showing what each chapter does, why the ideas matter, and whether the book is likely to suit you. 
Ideal for audiobook listeners, students, science lovers, and thoughtful readers who want to approach difficult books with more confidence, Look Smart, Listen Smart helps you listen deeper, understand faster, and get more from a landmark work of modern science.

Cloud Native Application...

Stephen Giguere, Russ Miles,...

Cloud native security isn't a game for individual players. It requires team collaboration with a platform that can help cloud security engineers, developers, and operations people do their best work. That's what the cloud native application protection platform (CNAPP) delivers. With this guide, you'll learn how CNAPPs can help you consolidate security through DevSecOps across cloud native technologies, practices, and application lifecycles. 
 
 
 
Through real-life attack scenarios, Russ Miles, Steve Giguere, and Taylor Smith help you explore how CNAPP not only mitigates multidimensional threats, but also reduces complexity and helps your team stay one step ahead of attackers. CNAPP provides a holistic approach to your cloud native development across identities, workloads, networks, and infrastructure. 
 
 
 
With this book, you will: 
 
 
 
● Examine threats to different parts of the cloud native stack, including pipelines, supply chains, infrastructure, workloads, and applications 
 
 
 
● Learn what CNAPP is and how it enables the context-sharing and collaboration necessary to secure your applications from development to runtime 
 
 
 
● Assess your own attack surface from a code and runtime standpoint 
 
 
 
● And more

Cloud Security Handbook for...

Ashish Mishra

Cloud platforms face unique security issues and opportunities because of their evolving designs and API-driven automation. We will learn cloud-specific strategies for securing platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and others. The book will help you implement data asset management, identity and access management, network security, vulnerability management, incident response, and compliance in your cloud environment. 
This book helps cybersecurity teams strengthen their security posture by mitigating cyber risk when "targets" shift to the cloud. The book will assist you in identifying security issues and show you how to achieve best-in-class cloud security. It also includes new cybersecurity best practices for daily, weekly, and monthly processes that you can combine with your other daily IT and security operations to meet NIST criteria. 
This book teaches how to leverage cloud computing by addressing the shared responsibility paradigm required to meet PCI-DSS, ISO 27001/2, and other standards. It will help you choose the right cloud security stack for your ecosystem. Moving forward, we will discuss the architecture and framework, building blocks of native cloud security controls, adoption of required security compliance, and the right culture to adopt this new paradigm shift in the ecosystem. 
Towards the end, we will talk about the maturity path of cloud security, along with recommendations and best practices relating to some real-life experiences.
