 On the Way to the Web: The Secret History of the Internet and Its FoundersOn the Way to the Web: The Secret History of the Internet and Its Founders is an absorbing chronicle of the inventive, individualistic, and often cantankerous individuals who set the Internet free. Michael A. Banks describes how the online population created a new culture and turned a new frontier into their vision of the... | | Security and Cryptography for Networks: 6th International Conference, SCN 2008, Amalfi, Italy, September 10-12, 2008, ProceedingsThe 6th Conference on Security and Cryptography for Networks (SCN 2008) was held in Amalfi, Italy, on September 10–12, 2008. The first four editions of the conference where held in Amalfi, while, two years ago, the fifth edition was held in the nearby Maiori. This year we moved back to the traditional location.
Security and privacy... | | How to Lie with MapsOriginally published to wide acclaim, this lively, cleverly illustrated essay on the use and abuse of maps teaches us how to evaluate maps critically and promotes a healthy skepticism about these easy-to-manipulate models of reality. Monmonier shows that, despite their immense value, maps lie. In fact, they must.
