Download or read book Home Grown written by Isaac Campos and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historian Isaac Campos combines wide-ranging archival research with the latest scholarship on the social and cultural dimensions of drug-related behavior in this telling of marijuana's remarkable history in Mexico. Introduced in the sixteenth century by the Spanish, cannabis came to Mexico as an industrial fiber and symbol of European empire. But, Campos demonstrates, as it gradually spread to indigenous pharmacopoeias, then prisons and soldiers' barracks, it took on both a Mexican name--marijuana--and identity as a quintessentially "Mexican" drug. A century ago, Mexicans believed that marijuana could instantly trigger madness and violence in its users, and the drug was outlawed nationwide in 1920. Home Grown thus traces the deep roots of the antidrug ideology and prohibitionist policies that anchor the drug-war violence that engulfs Mexico today. Campos also counters the standard narrative of modern drug wars, which casts global drug prohibition as a sort of informal American cultural colonization. Instead, he argues, Mexican ideas were the foundation for notions of "reefer madness" in the United States. This book is an indispensable guide for anyone who hopes to understand the deep and complex origins of marijuana's controversial place in North American history.

Book Synopsis Computer Algebra and Polynomials by : Jaime Gutierrez
Download or read book Computer Algebra and Polynomials written by Jaime Gutierrez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algebra and number theory have always been counted among the most beautiful mathematical areas with deep proofs and elegant results. However, for a long time they were not considered that important in view of the lack of real-life applications. This has dramatically changed: nowadays we find applications of algebra and number theory frequently in our daily life. This book focuses on the theory and algorithms for polynomials over various coefficient domains such as a finite field or ring. The operations on polynomials in the focus are factorization, composition and decomposition, basis computation for modules, etc. Algorithms for such operations on polynomials have always been a central interest in computer algebra, as it combines formal (the variables) and algebraic or numeric (the coefficients) aspects. The papers presented were selected from the Workshop on Computer Algebra and Polynomials, which was held in Linz at the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM) during November 25-29, 2013, at the occasion of the Special Semester on Applications of Algebra and Number Theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Al-Qaeda started in late 1980s in the Af-Pak area, and the group became forever synonymous with the attacks on the World Trade Center. But that was not the beginning. Al-Qaeda plotted numerous conflicts before the September 11, 2001. Little did everyone know at the time, but the attacks would set into motion a series of events that would exacerbate the spread of terrorwith the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan adding fuel to the fire. Sawad Hadian expert in conflict studies and religious politicstraces the history of al-Qaeda, its leaders, and how its deviant psychology has allowed it and its affiliates to win money and followers. He also highlights how: uprisings during the Arab Spring of December 2010 reshaped the Middle East; ordinary men and women in Syria continue to suffer, victimized by terrorists and the ruthless Assad regime; and turbulence caused by the war in Syria will continue to haunt the country and the world for decadesregardless of the outcome of the current struggle. With hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing states that sponsor terrorism and with attacks on the rise, its more important than ever to fully understand the history of terrorism if were to have any chance of vanquishing Looming Black Shadows.

Book Synopsis Mathematical Modelling for Next-Generation Cryptography by : Tsuyoshi Takagi
Download or read book Mathematical Modelling for Next-Generation Cryptography written by Tsuyoshi Takagi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the mathematical background underlying security modeling in the context of next-generation cryptography. By introducing new mathematical results in order to strengthen information security, while simultaneously presenting fresh insights and developing the respective areas of mathematics, it is the first-ever book to focus on areas that have not yet been fully exploited for cryptographic applications such as representation theory and mathematical physics, among others. Recent advances in cryptanalysis, brought about in particular by quantum computation and physical attacks on cryptographic devices, such as side-channel analysis or power analysis, have revealed the growing security risks for state-of-the-art cryptographic schemes. To address these risks, high-performance, next-generation cryptosystems must be studied, which requires the further development of the mathematical background of modern cryptography. More specifically, in order to avoid the security risks posed by adversaries with advanced attack capabilities, cryptosystems must be upgraded, which in turn relies on a wide range of mathematical theories. This book is suitable for use in an advanced graduate course in mathematical cryptography, while also offering a valuable reference guide for experts.
Book Synopsis Putting Water Security to Work by : Chad Staddon
Download or read book Putting Water Security to Work written by Chad Staddon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, water security has replaced sustainability as the key optic for thinking about how we manage water. This reframing has offered benefits (including clear recognition of the link between humans, the environment and the right to water) and also posed challenges (the tendency in some quarters to interpret “security” solely in terms of geopolitical or economic “securitisation”). In this collection, the authors offer a radical repositioning of these debates updated to reflect the concerns of our post-pandemic world. The chapters in this volume examine several different themes including how water security articulates with locality and culture, how it operates across spatial scales and its moral/ethical resonances. The chapters in this book were originally published in the journals Water International and International Journal of Water Resources Development.
