2008 y.

It is the story of lives that hang in the balance, and of a single job with a misdiagnosed newborn that sends Cross and his partner into a life-changing struggle between good and evil. [detailed...]

Publisher: —

Description: This book presents a methodology to approach and detect similar types of vulnerabilities in individual security devices that plague the software industry. Bypassing key components in a security system can negate the presence of other subsystems. Our content supplies an applicable process of assessment that will never age. As long as hardware and software work together and data is sent over wires or airwaves the methods contained in this book will help detect flaws and information leakage in physical security devices. Not only do we supply a methodology and checklist for finding common exposures, our book also supplies real world scenarios and shows how bypassing specific equipment can render a security system powerless. Though the exposures relate to software in theory, the specific attacks and methods used to assess a given hardware device will be based on that category of devices and technology that relates to those devices. For example, data injection into a video stream… [detailed...]

Black Hole Tariffs and Endogenous Policy Theory: Political Economy in General Equilibrium

— y.
Publisher: —

Description: This book provides a special interest theory of protection, developing a full general equilibrium theory that explains the distribution of income with goods markets, factor markets, lobbies, political parties, and voters all pursuing their self interest. This probabilistic voting model shows how well-organized groups can use seemingly irrational government policies to exploit poorly organized groups. Given rational predatory behavior between these groups, protection or any other redistributive policy that improves the chances of election of a party increases political efficiency. This can create an economic black hole, conditions under which an entire economy can disappear into lobbying. Paradoxically, the tariff rates accompanying an economic black hole are very low. The economic waste is confined to lobbying costs. The book contains both theoretical and empirical work explaining protection in the United States (1900-1988) and levels of protection in about sixty foreign countries… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionIn Black is a Color , contemporary art historian and curator Elvan Zabunyan proposes a new approach to contemporary art and its history through the practice of Black American artists from the Harlem Renaissance to today. Combining ahistorical study with probing critical analysis, Black is a Color depicts an America marked indelibly by its slavery past, out of which Afro-American contemporary artists have been able to build a singular and engaged body of work to protest against the cultural and political consequences of racial discrimination. In chapters covering notions of `Black conscience,` the relation of `attitude` to form, and women Afro-American artists, Zabunyan traces the emergence of artistic identity in various forms of representation (painting, sculpture, photography, video, and performance). Close readings of the oeuvres of David Hammons, Adrian Piper, and others uncover the place of the body, urban space, and memory in the works of Black… [detailed...]
