This book describes the history of video games and shows their evolution to the present. We survey a variety of common vintage Atari and Coleco games that can be used as part of a computer recreation plan for the disabled, senior citizens, and anyone else who wants to have fun. We also discuss some developments resulting from some computer games that were operated with electrodes for people with persistent vegetative state, spinal chord injured, and comatose. There are also some fascinating computer simulations used with doctors to help people recover from fear of driving, fear of height, and to distract them from pain experienced from severe burns. We also survey recreational/communication games in the Middle East.

The book discusses some basics about computer security and some of the strategies that personal computer users take to try to keep their machine safe. It also discusses the dangers that many people and governments face from people misusing computer resources and some of the strategies that the United States Federal Government is taking to help keep its citizens safe. The book also robotics used from a distance to help disabled people recreate and work across countries.

This book discusses a variety of topics such as cell phone seizure and examination, electrical fire investigation, potential vulnerabilities when using historic electrical devices, interpersonal conduct in the Middle East, Russia, and the USA, intellectual property theft, spy cases, and various motivations for crime in a manner that everyone can understand. We also discuss various test equipment and software used for collecting evidence from both physical evidence and invisible radio frequency artifacts. We also discuss electronic equipment that is used to destroy various documents as well as both human and automated processes used to reconstruct small shreds of paper. We discuss real cases regarding document reconstruction such as the American Embassy in Iran and the recently discovered East German (secret police) Stasi shredded records. We also discuss the Hanssen spying case using a PDA and low tech techniques such as the dead drop. Lastly, Jeff Marsh, a brilliant man who became disabled due to an unfortunate accident, demonstrates with the help of Dr. Doherty, various devices such as clocks and mustard jars with concealed purposes that may be used by undercover surveillance professionals or private investigators in a variety of settings, once proper approval is given. Jeff also discusses recreation and conversation as a means of exercising our intellect and informally learning from other people.

This book discusses the process of investigating and analyzing electronic equipment, detecting devices, wireless signals, and the prosecution and prevention of high tech crime. The coauthors are from private industry and academia and really provide a wide variety of perspectives on the detection of electronic eavesdropping devices, wiretaps, various electronic signals, and the collection and examination of information from laptops, desktop computers, and PDAs. Kenneth Bruno does an excellent job teaching the reader about all the equipment used in electronic eavesdropping detection. We also introduce the reader to various pieces of electronic equipment used to detect and identify explosives, biochemical weapons, as well as historic unexploded ordinance. The reader is also introduced to the legal system by Mr. Joel Liebesfeld who does corporate investigations and is often employed by clients who are in the legal profession or insurance industry. Mr. Joel Liebesfeld and Dr. Doherty discuss the process of becoming an expert witness who may testify to what was found using scientific methods in combination with electronic signal detection or computer forensic equipment. We hope that the readership of the book will include high school students considering a career in private industry, law enforcement, intelligence agencies, or the military. A background in electronics, math, and computer science is helpful but not necessary in reading this book. Lockards Principle of Exchange specifies that two objects or people that come in contact with each other will change. We hope that this book changes you by increasing your understanding of electronic devices, investigation, and the justice system.

The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live.
