Plastic Card Fraud and Safety Measures: Whether You Own a Bank Account is Completely Irrelevant

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book was written almost 3 years ago but it could have been written yesterday. Card fraud and internet fraud has to this day so much relevance to our daily lives. Banks have spent billions on new technology and ways to protect our money (and ultimately their own), and still, new figures show that fraud losses were up by 25% in 2007 year on year. On top of that, losses sustained in the earlier years were far higher than those estimated, therefore if you want to be more precise, look at numbers in this book with an upside. On the positive side, online banking fraud losses went down 33% year on year which shows that educating the public has paid off. The Chip and Pin system is showing promise but is undermined by those countries where it has not been implemented. This is shown by the 77% increase in in fraud committed overseas by criminals using stolen UK card details. This book could become obsolete once all countries have upgraded to Chip and Pin…but dont hold your breath. [detailed...]

Plastic Culture: How Japanese Toys Conquered the World

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Plastic Culture explores the world of toys: why we love them, what they represent, and why there is a growing market for `designer` and `art` toys aimed at adults. In this book, British author Woodrow Phoenix takes a look at our relationship to toys in the twenty-first century, with particular reference to Japan--an exporter of both merchandise and ideas. Plastic toys based on Japanese comics, movies, and TV shows, from Astro Boy, Godzilla, and Gatchaman, to Power Rangers, Sailor Moon, and PokA©mon have had a powerful effect on the imaginations and markets of the West, and have kick-started trends in design and pop culture that have crossed from Japan to the West and back East again. Brimming with lavish, full-color illustrations of cult and limited-edition toys, and with an in-depth look at the work of Japanese artists Takashi Murakami and Yoshitomo Nara, Hong Kong trendsetters Eric So and Michael Lau, and many other leading players in the world of designer toys, this is a book… [detailed...]

Plastic Design

2007 y.
Publisher: daab
Description: During the past 50 years, the plastic industry has grown at an incredible pace until becoming part of nearly all the areas of human activity, including of course architecture, and easily rivaling the steel and iron industry. The word plastic, which comes from the Greek plastikos (which means easy to mould] is an organic polymer material, rarely natural (rubber and wax) and frequently synthetic or semi-synthetic, created by large macromolecular chains which contain carbon. It is also inexpensive, flexible, mold-able, impermeable, insulating and resistant, although not easy to recycle. It has many practical and aesthetic benefits, thus converting it into star material for hundreds of thousands of consumers who have ceased to be content with traditional materials frequently associated with outdated decorative aesthetics and styles. Its use in contemporary architecture has enabled its range of possible shapes, colors, and finishes to be increased dramatically. Plastic materials moreover… [detailed...]

Description: The blue plate special, meatloaf, a cheeseburger deluxe, a milkshake in a frosty mixing canister, a hot cup of joe—all served by a friendly face in a well-lighted aluminum tube. Such are the special joys of the American diner. And it was just these pleasures that photographer Stephan Schacher set out to document when he left New York on a journey through North America that would test both his stomach and his resolve. Schacher’s mission: to feed his hunger only at diners, and to photograph both his meal and his server every time. The result is a unique and deeply human story—quirky and nostalgic and generous—of one man`s quest to discover North America`s diner culture and his own place in it. Traveling from a Jersey diner to the Canadian Rockies to a shoreside clambake shack on the Pacific Ocean, Schacher`s culinary adventure is documented here with a wealth of visual materials.

Arcing with dreamlike swiftness from Paris to Pattaya Beach and from sex clubs to a terrorist massacre, Platform is a brilliant, apocalyptic masterpiece by a man whois widely regarded as one of the world’s most original and daring writers.
