A deadly intelligence leak. A shattered alliance. A world on the edge of war. When a critical intelligence breach rocks the Five Eyes network—an alliance between the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand—private intelligence operative Dalton Drake and his elite team are called in to help find the leak before it ignites a global crisis. But before they can even begin, a brazen assassination attempt on the US vice president nearly wipes them out as well. Chasing a trail of deception that leads across the Balkans, the Mediterranean, and Australasia, Drake uncovers a shadowy conspiracy with tentacles that could reach all the way to the White House. As rising tensions in the South Pacific threaten to spark a worldwide conflict, Drake and his team race to unmask the traitor and pull the world back from the brink of a devastating war. Packed with explosive action, surprising twists, and relentless suspense, this is Dalton Drake’s most dangerous mission yet.
Computers are complex tools of the human species. To make them work well for us, we have to specify their actions in very great detail. When properly instructed, networks of computers take on the trappings of human social orders derived from the physiological characteristics and capabilities of our species. To create a social order, we engage in grouping mechanisms through which the actions of the individuals within the group are influenced. From a technical perspective, such grouping mechanisms form the trust environments within which we can effect policy. Historically, the most comprehensive such environments have been formed by religions. Within a specific religion, the policy framework i...
Microbial Diversity in the Genomic Era presents insights on the techniques used for microbial taxonomy and phylogeny, along with their applications and respective pros and cons. Though many advanced techniques for the identification of any unknown bacterium are available in the genomics era, a far fewer number of the total microbial species have been discovered and identified to date. The assessment of microbial taxonomy and biosystematics techniques discovered and practiced in the current genomics era with suitable recommendations is the prime focus of this book. - Discusses the techniques used for microbial taxonomy and phylogeny with their applications and respective pros and cons - Reviews the evolving field of bacterial typing and the genomic technologies that enable comparative analysis of multiple genomes and the metagenomes of complex microbial environments - Provides a uniform, standard methodology for species designation
