1997 International Tax Summaries: A Guide for Planning and Decisions

Book Description

Men are beasts, authorities throughout the ages have agreed. Here, scolars of male behavior from St. Catherine of Siena ("Let not thy misfortune be such as to enter into any private conversation, with monk or layman.") to Zsa Zsa Gabor ("A man is incomplete until he is married. Then he is finished."), from Mae West ("Give a man a free hand and he'll run it all over you"), to Andrea Dworkin ("Intercourse is the pure, sterile, formal expression of men's contempt for woman") offer suggestions on what to do about, with, and without men. In this magnificent compendium of wise and unwise words and warnings from "the fair sex" about the opposite sex, Tama Starr offers a tantalizing companion to her collection of infuriating comments by men about women, The "Natural Inferiority" of Women (1991). Eve's Revenge is both a valuable source of ammunition in the ongoing battle between the sexes and a keenly hilarious parody of those who long for the day when, the battle won, "men" (a socially constructed phenomenon anyway) will be fully under the control of the wiser, more compassionate, more virtuous-that is, feminine-beings destined to succeed them on the ladder of evolution.

A new target of cutting wit?.......2002-09-18

Jokes can be both funny and cutting, and often it seems that women have been the victims of comedy more often than men. But jokes aside, this book of quotations demonstrates that even if the numbers are not equal, men too have been the target of commentary but amusing and attacking for centuries. The illustrations are simple black & white drawings of a "Victorian" style, rather satirically in itself considering the gender roles at that time. The book is organized on the premise that males are a extincted species and this is a pseudo-historical view of them by the survivors, females. The book has five chapters where the quotations are organized by subject and tone. I found it actually quite interesting but not necessarily funny, but them I'm a historian and a feminist so I was over-analyzing the content, I'm sure. I find it to be a good source for bitting commentary when I write some of my fiction.

Caustic and Witty.......1999-06-15

This book reaches a new high in male-bashing, albeit with a tongue-in-cheek bent. I laughed aloud over some of the quotes, but honestly felt that it got too mean-spirited toward the end. By that time, all the humor was gone, and what was left was simply female chauvanism. All men aren't that awful, but it is interesting to see how long woman have been complaining about them! This is a great book to read if you're just getting over a bad marriage or an unhappy love affair, but if you're happily involved, you may find that this book leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

An important lifetime.......2007-05-13

We purchased this book to get to know a man who was a friend to my father.
Flying together during WW2 I only got to know Ossie through my father and laterly after having the priviledge of meeting he and his wife Lee, found he and his career, most fascinating.
I can recommend this book to anyone with an interest in cinematography. It maps out a lifetime career of achievement sharing both the bad times with the very, very good while allowing you to see into the wonderful person who is Oswald Morris.

Book Description

Sexology Uncensored brings together, for the first time, many of the key documents of the modern science of sexuality that emerged in the late nineteenth century. The early pioneers of the new field of sexology examined and classified sexual behaviors, identities, and relations. For years much of the material here has been "censored" in the sense that it is difficult to obtain, subject to restrictive circulation, or available only in medical archives. The extracts (which date from the 1880s to the 1940s) cover a variety of topics including gender and sexual difference; homosexuality; transsexuality and bisexuality; heterosexuality; marriage and sex manuals; reproductive control; eugenics; race; and various sexual proclivities.

Offering readers access to the primary materials on which contemporary sexology is founded, Sexology Uncensored is an invaluable record for all those interested in how we have come to think about sex and sexuality over the last hundred years.

Sexology in Culture and its companion Sexology Uncensored will interest all those concerned with understanding modern sexual discourse in its historical context.

Short but sweet.......2004-01-17

White Wolf strikes again for the fans of Warcraft. Though small this particular book is filled with interesting information bound to help any Warcraft player. Though nothing is in any supremely detailed form alot of good and useful information is given.
Possible the greatest boon in this book is a section on mass combat rules using units of troops. Truly useful even for people with no interest in the setting. Overall this is good addition to any versatile DND library, and an essential for any Warcraft lover.

Invaluable Resource For Any Windows Admin.......2005-02-13

About a year ago I was investigating a system to try and determine if it was attacked, as well as when and how if it had been. I wrote for help to a list that I am on and Harlan Carvey responded with detailed and useful information that helped me out.

I asked Carvey at the time if there were a book I could get that would help me learn that stuff and he told me that he didn't want to be cocky per se, but that there really wasn't and that I would have to wait until his book came out. Now that I have it I think I would have to agree.

There are plenty of great books on computer forensics available, but none that go into the depth that Carvey does on the Windows operating system itself. The information he provides regarding how and where Windows hides information is invaluable for finding and recovering from an attack.

Carvey makes extensive use of PERL, rather than using the native Windows Scripting Host (WSH), and he explains that PERL is vastly more flexible and powerful than what Windows has to offer. He provides details for how to install it and the scripts from the book are on the accompanying CD.

I highly recommend this book for ALL Windows system administrators and anyone who investigates incidents on Windows systems.

An Excellent and Informative Book.......2004-09-25

I am a nuts and bolts kind of guy and this book suits me to a tee. Harlan covers the topics thoroughly and has added to my knowledge of forensic methodology and shown me new techniques to discover information the many recent versions of the Windows operating system. He has done his homework, mixed it up with lots of coding examples, and even added some dream weaving to illustrate his points.

He lays the groundwork in chapters one, two, and three so that anyone reading the book will be sure to understand his purpose and see the framework that will be used for a methodology for Windows incident response.

Chapters four and five cover incident response. Among the preventative tools mentioned are group policies and configuration options that can be used on a Windows system so it can be configured to effectively take advantage of native security features. One of the topics in this chapter is using and extending Windows File Protection (WFP). A useful suggestion found here is the extension of WFP to protect static pages located on the root of a web site - especially since there are web site defacements occurring all the time. In Chapter five he covers the collection of volatile and non-volatile information. Although there are many tools out there for collection of this information, many well known to forensic examiners, Harlan progresses in a logical sequence and enumerates the pros and cons of each in a very understandable way. There are many examples of command lines, screen shots, and perl scripts to explain the concepts. In chapter 5 there are 47 web links that can be used to research the tools mentioned.

I had never imagined a dream sequence in a book about computer forensics - but there it was in chapter six. We follow in the footsteps of Andy, a network administrator unlucky enough to be the victim of a network incident. Andy develops a methodology to prepare for, contain, and analyze network incidents. We can see the consequences of being unprepared and then follow Andy through the development of this methodology. In hindsight, this was a good teaching tool based on experience and it brings the reader through a logical set of steps so they can start to think about developing their own methodology.

Chapter seven covers what to look for when doing incident investigation. Windows, an operating system where most people use the graphical user interface (GUI), hides many of its internals from the user. This chapter covers the functions of these internals, and locations of data and tools that can be used to discover it. There also is a look at the AFT Windows Rootkit 2003. This rootkit hides itself from the casual investigator. Using the proper tools, this rootkit can be discovered.

Harlan's Forensic Server Project (FSP) is discussed in chapter eight. This project takes the elements discussed earlier in the book and brings them together so that an investigator can adapt and customize to fit the needs of their own investigation. The FSP is not an end to itself, but rather furthers forensic techniques and knowledge with the use of open-source tools and a structured methodology. An additional chapter covers scanners and sniffers that can be used for network forensic investigations.

The investigator will find over 200 links to Internet sites for further exploration. It is a good solid start to an ongoing and exciting project that will evolve and grow now that the solid foundation has been published.

Windows is a complex operating system and the fact that it is used in the majority of computers in the world makes it a tempting target. In the future I would expect that the chapter on rootkits would be expanded. There are several varieties of rootkits in the wild and the forensic community will value any light that can be shown on their operation and malicious functions.

Harlan Carvey's book is a valuable addition to my bookshelf.

Invaluable Reference for Todays Windows Admins.......2004-09-22

I would strongly recommend this book to anyone that is looking at Windows incident response or Windows monitoring. This is the first computer book that I have read cover to cover in well over 5 years and I have bought a lot of computer books. From the beginning until the end you are bombarded with information that is useful and relevant to today's Windows management. Not only are you told about different tools but are shown how they are used and what benefit they have, not only in incident response but also in daily monitoring.

This book provides so much information it is hard to figure where I wanted to start with building my own incident response toolkit. You are given quite a few options on how to do an analysis and what tools you can use. Carvey leaves it up to you to determine what options you want to use for each analysis. Carvey is like a good parent giving their child all the information they will need in life and letting them apply it how they see fit.

The scripts that are provided with the book are excellent and provide you with a strong base to build your own incident response toolkit. The Forensic Server Project which the author wrote is covered in Chapter 8 and provides an excellent framework that can be tweaked to use your own preferences and scripts of your choosing. The ease and use of using this framework to collect incident information will make the first responders job that much easier considering the first responder will probably be under stress when doing this analysis. The instructions for installing it will very clear and easy to follow and I had it up and testing in a couple of minutes.

I would strongly recommend this book to anyone that is looking at Windows incident response or Windows monitoring.

Tools for the Microsoft Administrator.......2004-09-16

Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery is an invaluable resource for a Windows Administrator. The author points out correctly that an investigation into anomalous computer behavior is often cut short due to a lack of understanding what to look for and the time constraints that all IT departments work under. After presenting tools to reveal hidden processes and information, he presents a methodology to quickly and easily retrieve this information from a machine so that an informed decision as to whether patching, rebuilding or further investigation into the machine in question can be made.

Many of the utilities that are presented in the book will be familiar to most IT professionals. These utilities combined with the Perl scripts included on the companion CD make for a potent investigative tool kit. The step by step guide made installing Perl and integrated modules easy to follow. While Perl may not be a familiar language to many, opening the scripts with Note Pad or a Freeware tool such as Crimson Editor reveals detailed notes as to the purpose of each section of the script. After completing the setup for the Forensic Server Project the reader is rewarded with a powerful incident protocol ready for real world use.

There is also a review of several methods to hide data from within programs such as MS Word or Excel and also the operating system itself. On general security fundamentals Carvey discusses and confirms what should be the mantra of any Microsoft Administrator; patch, monitor and be informed. This book is a great resource for any Microsoft Administrator.

Very Informative Read.......2004-09-16

I see three types of people reading this book: 1) People who make a living in network security, 2) Advanced users who *really* want to know areas where hackers can get in, and 3) Wanna-be "hackers" (learning what not to do by studying what people are looking for). Every chapter is filled with revealing information and "see for yourself" proofs. The book is easy to read and understand, regardless of your previous Windows Security experience.

I only have two issues with the book. The first is that the author almost exclusively uses Perl as the scripting language for all the proof of concept and utility scripts in the book (all very conveniently located on the accompanying CD-ROM). This is understandable in that Windows native scripting languages may not provide the same functionality as easily (if at all) as Perl, but Perl isn't native to the Windows environment. A great many of today's Windows Administrators started off with Microsoft Platforms, and use Microsoft languages to perform tasks. It would have been nice if the author had presented some of his script in Windows native languages, so as to afford those without Perl experience the same level of experience. Secondly, and again understandably, the book makes reference to many utilities only available for download from various third-party web sites. If web sites were permanent, reliable, static resources, this wouldn't be a problem - but when you attempt to download a mentioned utility only to find that the web site no longer exists, or the download removed, it detracts from the value of the book itself. This is not to say that book is full of broken links, only that the nature of the Internet is dynamic and things change over time.

Overall, a welcome addition to your technology library, and well worth the time invested to read. Anyone reading the book will take away something to improve the security of the systems under their charge.

Book Description

Preservation and presentation are central activities in the conservation of the historic environment. But are they mutually supportive or do they work against each other? Managing Historic Sites and Buildings looks at the choices and tensions that exist in the conservation and interpretation of sites of heritage. In essays discussing a variety of locations - from a prehistoric sacred site to World War II military remains, from a medieval monastery to a 1970s housing estate - contributors look at contemporary concerns and debates about the way that the past is shaped, physically and metaphorically, by these two aspects of heritage management. Arguing that the fundamental purpose of the whole process is to communicate understanding about the human past, the collection explores the crucial relationship between preserving historic places and promoting an awareness of their significance.

Book Description

Susan Doran describes and analyses the process of the Elizabethan Reformation, placing it in an English and a European context. She examines the religious views and policies of the Queen, the making of the 1559 settlement and the resulting reforms. The changing beliefs of the English people are discussed, and the author charts the fortunes of both Puritanism and Catholicism. Finally she looks at the strengths and weaknesses of Elizabeth I as royal governor, and of the Church of England as a whole.

Informative and enjoyable read.......2007-10-05

The book lays out many key features of the museum and how the artifacts were acquired. It has some black & white photos showing key facets of the museum's history as described in the book. The narrative is written in a novel-like way adding to the reading enjoyment.

A "must read" for history buffs .......2007-07-22

The book is filled with all the unheard stories of the founding, and running of the museum. Also tales about the explorers, collectors, thieves and hunters that made this museum what is today. It holds all their dirty little secrets, their untold exploits, their skeletons in the closets. It is a completely entertaining and enlightening book.

A serendipitous trip.......2006-11-05

This is a classic. Anyone who has ever visited the AMNH or plans to will want to read this book. It's a gem.

Engrossing, hilarious (sometimes) human nature book.......2003-09-30

You wouldn't think of museums as providing the stuff for comedians, but I can see not enough people know about what actually goes on in these collosal monuments to human curiosity!
I came to this book by way of mystery writers (Preston and Child--Relic and Fairchild---The Bone Vault). So thanks guys for recommending this nonfiction read! Almost as quickly read as my mysteries.

The need for so many people to collect items, animals and even humans (would someone please stomp on Admiral Peary's grave for a while)! Geez. You wouldn't think people would be so obtuse as to not realize that living, breathing human beings do not belong in museums as specimens of a tribe or culture we do not know. But obviously the wealthy who often did the collecting, or those 'explorers' who put fame and glory above compassion had a problem with understanding basic human rights. And yes, if tribes ask for their ancestors back, the bones should be returned and buried. How would we all feel if someone went and dug up our grandparents and put their skeletons on display without concern for our need to respect them? You don't see museum guys going to dig up white American or English cemetary plots, do you?

Okay, off the soapbox. A fun read, well-written, well-researched. Preston went on to write several books using the museums as a somewhat creepy place, and frankly after reading this and other books, I don't think I'd want to be locked in the American Museum of Natural History. Pretty sure I'd freak out...too much past with too many ghosts attached to it. Besides, this place sounds like a mausoleum. Having just returned from visiting the Mutter Medical Museum in Philly with its assortment of bones, oddly shaped fetuses and a variety of other things like hands floating in some type of suspension fluid showing small pox at its worse...yikes, I don't know how much of this stuff I could take, and I took medical classes in the Morgue!

The history of the museum is fascinating...the fact that we are able to see so little of this makes me yearn to do exploring down in the 'tombs' and hallways in the presence of company and full daylight, thank you.

You don't have to love dinosaurs to enjoy this book.......2000-10-14

More than a book about a museum, Dinosaurs in the Attic is a survey of the last two centuries' at times predatory and rapacious drive to collect. I read this book years ago, and am still recommending it to people as one of the most interesting and enjoyable books I've ever read. The story telling is marvelous and the insights about the museum fascinating.
