Today, as we approach the end of the second millennium, the uncontrolled expansion of human settlements is modifying the environment and seriously threatening the sustainability of the whole planet.

Revolutionizing Education through Technology

Economic competition is global, focused, and unrelenting; there is no such thing as a “safe” job. Whatever it was that formed the basis of your state’s economy 50, 25, or even 10 years ago is now at risk; and whatever it is that is coming next is hard to see or define, let alone prepare for. This came home to me in the late 1990s when the bloom of the dot com bubble was beginning to fade…

The Study of Violent Crime

As the plan to write this book began to develop, a few central points became immediately apparent. First, the concept of violence represents a vast collection of behaviors and cognitions within a theoretical domain whose parameters are extremely ambiguous. Of course, there are distinctions between the types of violence and their nature, which can be clearly articulated, but the causal and corre…

Information Storage and Management

Information storage is a central pillar of information technology. A large quantity of digital information is being created every moment by individual and corporate consumers of IT.

We first …

Nobody has ever presented a convincing (to me) argument that supports keeping multiple computers isolated from each other. Using and managing multiple computers is easier if you create a network. You don’…
