Download or read book The Thin Blue Line written by Conor Foley and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea that we should 'do something' to help those suffering in far-off places is the main impulse driving those who care about human rights. Yet from Kosovo to Iraq, military interventions have gone disastrously wrong. The Thin Blue Line describes how in the last twenty years humanitarianism has emerged as a multibillion-dollar industry that has played a leading role in defining humanitarian crises, and shaping the foreign policy of Western governments and the United Nations. Drawing on his own experience of working in over a dozen conflict and post-conflict zones, Foley shows how the growing influence of international law has been used to override the sovereignty of the poorest countries in the world.
Book Synopsis AGI and the Thin Blue Line: Unleashing the Power of AI in Modern Policing by : Josh Luberisse
Download or read book AGI and the Thin Blue Line: Unleashing the Power of AI in Modern Policing written by Josh Luberisse and published by Fortis Novum Mundum. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of rapid technological advancements and unprecedented possibilities, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) promises to redefine the world of law enforcement. From surveillance and monitoring to predictive policing and proactive crime prevention, AGI has the potential to revolutionize the way police agencies operate and address the complex challenges of public safety. "AGI and the Thin Blue Line: Unleashing the Power of AI in Modern Policing" offers a comprehensive examination of the transformative potential of AGI, its implications, and its practical applications in the field of policing. This timely book is being released on the verge of the announcement by NYC Mayor Eric Adams that the New York City Police Department is bringing back the Knightscope K5 robots to patrol Times Square alongside with Boston Dynamic’s Spot dogs. The fact that autonomous security robots are being used to patrol the streets of New York City, the most populous city in United States, serves as a testament to the rapidly evolving landscape of AI integration in law enforcement. Structured into seven key chapters, this book investigates the role of AGI in modern law enforcement, showcasing the potential for advanced AI systems to detect and track criminal activities through the analysis of vast data sources. It highlights the applications of AGI in surveillance, pattern recognition, and anomaly detection, while discussing potential challenges in terms of ensuring data security and integrity and it also delves into the ethical and legal implications of AI use in policing, discussing the importance of addressing algorithmic bias, and protecting privacy and civil liberties. Drawing on insights from professionals, academics, and industry experts, "AGI and the Thin Blue Line: Unleashing the Power of AI in Modern Policing" offers a balanced and forward-looking perspective on the challenges and opportunities presented by AGI in law enforcement. As technology continues to reshape the field of policing, this book serves as a vital resource for policymakers, law enforcement professionals, academics, and anyone interested in understanding the implications and possibilities of AGI in modern policing.

Download or read book Sherman's Horsemen written by David Evans and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1999-03-22 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approaching Atlanta in July of 1864, William Tecumseh Sherman knew he was facing the most important campaign of his career. Lacking the troops and the desire to mount a long siege of the city, Sherman was eager for a quick, decisive victory. A change of tactics was in order. He decided to call on the cavalry. Over the next seven weeks, Sherman's horsemen - under the command of Generals Rousseau, Garrard, Stoneman, McCook, and Kilpatrick - destroyed supplies and tore up miles of railroad track in an attempt to isolate the city. This book tells the story of those raids. After initial successes, the cavalrymen found themselves caught up in a series of daring and deadly engagements, including a failed attempt to push south to liberate the prisoners at the infamous prison camp at Andersonville. Through exhaustive research, David Evans has been able to recreate a vivid, captivating, and meticulously detailed image of the day-by-day life of the Union horse soldier. Based largely upon previously unpublished materials, Sherman's Horsemen provides the definitive account of this hitherto neglected aspect of the American Civil War.
Book Synopsis Vetiver Grass by : National Research Council
Download or read book Vetiver Grass written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For developing nations, soil erosion is among the most chronic environmental and economic burdens. Vast amounts of topsoil are washed or blown away from arable land only to accumulate in rivers, reservoirs, harbors, and estuaries, thereby creating a double disaster: a vital resource disappears from where it is desperately needed and is deposited where it is equally unwanted. Despite much rhetoric and effort, little has been done to overcome this problem. Vetiver, a little-known tropical grass, offers one practical and inexpensive way to control erosion on a huge scale in both humid and semi-arid regions. Hedges of this deeply rooted species catch and hold back sediments while the stiff foliage acts as a filter that also slows runoff and keeps moisture on site. This book assesses vetiver's promise and limitations and identifies places where this grass can be deployed without undue environmental risk.
Book Synopsis From Children to Citizens by : Francis X. Hartmann
Download or read book From Children to Citizens written by Francis X. Hartmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the preface: "The issues around which the juvenile justice system is centered frequently evoke anger and impatience. These emotions arise because the issues are so important and movement concerning the same issues seems nonexistent. The persons who are involved with those same issues, however, elicit respect and, often, affection. The Executive Sessions of the Kennedy School of Government combine the two elements - issues and persons - with the stated goal of advancing fruitful and effective public policy. The Executive Session on the Future of the Juvenile Justice System regularly brought to the same table, over a period of almost two years, persons who understand the issues well, who are professionally and personally invested in certain positions on the issues, and who were willing to engage themselves fully in the exchange of ideas, both theoretical and practical, which an Executive Session demands. This book is one of the products of that process. The editor, who chaired the meetings of the Session, takes certain positions regarding the future of the juvenile justice system and what the system should look like ten years from now." 1
