ISBN:

Pages : 649
Book Description
Let me tell you why you should be reading this book. You’re here because you know something. What you know you cannot explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life, that there is something wrong with the world. You don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s there, like a splinter in your mind driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to this book. Our ancestors did not realise that they were duped – that these unpredictable and claimed, one off banking and financial crisis, are in fact deliberately engineered by commercial bankers to create the illusion that there is a problem, that only they can provide the solution. The way banks crush the people is to grind them between the millstones of debt and engineered inflation. This book provides a positive future for Money that is completely different, where capital will be scarce and therefore valued. The free flow of Capital means capital will be less wasted on spurious, inflationary, or speculative projects. Capital will be the basis for recovering economic progress, so sadly lost at an increasing pace since the dollar became purely an irredeemable fiat currency based solely upon unrepayable future dated private bank debt. The World Currency Unit, carries no credit or counterparty risks, it serves as a "value anchor" to the worlds currencies within all economic environments, making it the most crucial reserve asset worldwide. Collectively with the knowledge of money, currency, and capital, free from all forms of extortion and violence, we can change our future, this book provides the knowledge and tools to create a better world for ourselves, our family, and our society.

The Twenty-Six Words That Created the Internet
Author: Jeff Kosseff
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501735799
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
As seen on CBS 60 Minutes "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." Did you know that these twenty-six words are responsible for much of America's multibillion-dollar online industry? What we can and cannot write, say, and do online is based on just one law—a law that protects online services from lawsuits based on user content. Jeff Kosseff exposes the workings of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which has lived mostly in the shadows since its enshrinement in 1996. Because many segments of American society now exist largely online, Kosseff argues that we need to understand and pay attention to what Section 230 really means and how it affects what we like, share, and comment upon every day. The Twenty-Six Words That Created the Internet tells the story of the institutions that flourished as a result of this powerful statute. It introduces us to those who created the law, those who advocated for it, and those involved in some of the most prominent cases decided under the law. Kosseff assesses the law that has facilitated freedom of online speech, trolling, and much more. His keen eye for the law, combined with his background as an award-winning journalist, demystifies a statute that affects all our lives –for good and for ill. While Section 230 may be imperfect and in need of refinement, Kosseff maintains that it is necessary to foster free speech and innovation.

Buildings, Finite Geometries and Groups
Author: N.S. Narasimha Sastry
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461407095
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
This is the Proceedings of the ICM 2010 Satellite Conference on “Buildings, Finite Geometries and Groups” organized at the Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore, during August 29 – 31, 2010. This is a collection of articles by some of the currently very active research workers in several areas related to finite simple groups, Chevalley groups and their generalizations: theory of buildings, finite incidence geometries, modular representations, Lie theory, etc. These articles reflect the current major trends in research in the geometric and combinatorial aspects of the study of these groups. The unique perspective the authors bring in their articles on the current developments and the major problems in their area is expected to be very useful to research mathematicians, graduate students and potential new entrants to these areas.
