Book Synopsis Non-Lethal Weapons by : David A. Koplow
Download or read book Non-Lethal Weapons written by David A. Koplow and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-04-03 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often, military and law enforcement authorities have found themselves constrained by inadequate weaponry. An emerging category of 'non-lethal weapons' carries promise for resolving this dilemma, proffering new capabilities for disabling opponents without inflicting death or permanent injury. This array of much more sophisticated technologies is being developed, and could emerge for use by soldiers and police in the near future. These augmented capabilities carry both immense promise and grave risks: they expand the power of law enforcement and military units, enabling them to accomplish assigned missions with greater finesse and reduced casualties. But they may also be misused - increasing maligned applications and inspiring leaders to over-rely upon a myth of 'bloodless combat'. This book explores the emerging world of non-lethal weapons by examining a series of case studies - recent real-world scenarios from five confrontations around the world where the availability of a modern arsenal might have made a difference.
Book Synopsis Weapons of Mass Instruction by : John Taylor Gatto
Download or read book Weapons of Mass Instruction written by John Taylor Gatto and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformation of schooling from a twelve-year jail sentence to freedom to learn. John Taylor Gatto's Weapons of Mass Instruction , now available in paperback, focuses on mechanisms of traditional education which cripple imagination, discourage critical thinking, and create a false view of learning as a byproduct of rote-memorization drills. Gatto's earlier book, Dumbing Us Down , introduced the now-famous expression of the title into the common vernacular. Weapons of Mass Instruction adds another chilling metaphor to the brief against conventional schooling. Gatto demonstrates that the harm school inflicts is rational and deliberate. The real function of pedagogy, he argues, is to render the common population manageable. To that end, young people must be conditioned to rely upon experts, to remain divided from natural alliances and to accept disconnections from their own lived experiences. They must at all costs be discouraged from developing self-reliance and independence. Escaping this trap requires a strategy Gatto calls "open source learning" which imposes no artificial divisions between learning and life. Through this alternative approach our children can avoid being indoctrinated-only then can they achieve self-knowledge, good judgment, and courage.

Download or read book Tools and Weapons written by Brad Smith and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller. From Microsoft's president and one of the tech industry's broadest thinkers, a frank and thoughtful reckoning with how to balance enormous promise and existential risk as the digitization of everything accelerates. “A colorful and insightful insiders’ view of how technology is both empowering and threatening us. From privacy to cyberattacks, this timely book is a useful guide for how to navigate the digital future.” —Walter Isaacson Microsoft President Brad Smith operates by a simple core belief: When your technology changes the world, you bear a responsibility to help address the world you have helped create. This might seem uncontroversial, but it flies in the face of a tech sector long obsessed with rapid growth and sometimes on disruption as an end in itself. While sweeping digital transformation holds great promise, we have reached an inflection point. The world has turned information technology into both a powerful tool and a formidable weapon, and new approaches are needed to manage an era defined by even more powerful inventions like artificial intelligence. Companies that create technology must accept greater responsibility for the future, and governments will need to regulate technology by moving faster and catching up with the pace of innovation. In Tools and Weapons, Brad Smith and Carol Ann Browne bring us a captivating narrative from the cockpit of one of the world's largest and most powerful tech companies as it finds itself in the middle of some of the thorniest emerging issues of our time. These are challenges that come with no preexisting playbook, including privacy, cybercrime and cyberwar, social media, the moral conundrums of artificial intelligence, big tech's relationship to inequality, and the challenges for democracy, far and near. While in no way a self-glorifying "Microsoft memoir," the book pulls back the curtain remarkably wide onto some of the company's most crucial recent decision points as it strives to protect the hopes technology offers against the very real threats it also presents. There are huge ramifications for communities and countries, and Brad Smith provides a thoughtful and urgent contribution to that effort.

Book excerpt: When Tomorrow's War Erupts, A New Kind Of Warrior Will Fight It. The twentieth century is ending in a revolution of bold new thought and stunning technological advancement -- and nowhere is this more prevalent that within the U.S. millitary. Weaponry unimaginary even a decade ago is already rolling off the assembly lines. Military strategists view the entire world as one enormous battlefield, as they prepare our armed forces to strike swiftly and effectively anywhere on the planet. And Virtual Reality training -- once the exclusive domain of science fiction writes -- is being employed even as you read these words. This astonishing book takes you into the hitherto secret world of tomorrow's warriors to reveal the true face and nature of the battles to come: groundbreaking aircraft designs that are already working their way into America's airborne arsenal... the Navy's plans to employ its revolutionary "Copernicus" program to create a networked, computerized attack force capable of reaching instanly to any event anywhere... the flashpoints and trouble spots in tomorrow's world... drones and robots that will play a high-profile role in the next century's war zone... the new mechanized armor, warplanes, vessels at sea, and computer-linked, interactive front line ground forces... the coming war in near-space -- where satellites will be the key targets For tomorrow's soldiers, the future is already here.

Book Synopsis Tomorrow's Weapons and Equipment - How We Determine What We Need by : William C. Boehm
Download or read book Tomorrow's Weapons and Equipment - How We Determine What We Need written by William C. Boehm and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report sets forth the optimum procedures which have evolved to determine objectively the requirements for materiel for tomorrow's Army. Involved is the need for close working relationships between the Combat and Materiel Developer and the essentiality of conducting analytical concept formulation rather than rely solely on military judgment which is based, for the most part, on limited personal experience. Proposals to revise the Army's organizational establishment should not subjugate the important combat development process to competing functions. An effective combat development organization will produce realistic requirements which must be predicated on projected operational concepts and tempered by acceptable cost thresholds. (Modified author abstract).

Book Synopsis The Biological Weapons Taboo by : Michelle Bentley
Download or read book The Biological Weapons Taboo written by Michelle Bentley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The non-use of biological weapons has been described as the 'great mystery of biological warfare.' The Biological Weapons Taboo solves that mystery by analysing the bioweapons taboo, in the first comprehensive study of the concept. Bentley explains precisely why bioweapons are perceived as repulsive and how this sentiment is consequently expressed in the form of political behaviours, including the refusal to engage in biological aggression. Drawing on extensive archival evidence, this volume looks back on United States' foreign policy decision-making (particularly in relation to the Geneva Protocol and the Biological Weapons Convention) to demonstrate how and why the taboo has comprised a decisive factor in shaping both biowarfare strategy and political rhetoric - and why the taboo needs to be recognised as a necessary consideration in the study of bioweapons. In analysing a taboo, the volume also takes the debate on international norms forward by questioning and challenging the wider analytic comprehension of 'taboo' itself. Rejecting current definitions of the concept as inadequate, Bentley proposes a new and original model of understanding based on the normative characteristics of disgust, stigmatization, and fetishization.
