Описание: Avodah is the first major translation of one of the most important genres of the lost literature of the ancient synagogue. Piyyut literature can teach us much about how ancient Jews understood sacrifice, sacred space, and sin. The poems are also a rich source for retrieving myths and symbols not found in the conventional Rabbinic sources.

Описание: Hitchhiking is dangerous. Picking up a hitchhiker even more so. Amy Squires knows this but as an ex-cop and private security consultant she feels safe enough to pick up a young woman thumbing a ride on a blistering hot day. A surprising attraction smolders between them, but they part company-until later that night when Kael Harding reappears outside Amy's hotel room. Never one to question her instincts, Amy welcomes what seems to be an uncomplicated one night stand. The morning brings another surprise-Kael is anything but a carefree young woman hitchhiking her way across the country. While perfectly willing to stand up for victims and their rights, and known to push the limits, everything Amy believes about herself and justice is challenged by Kael-and exactly how far Kael is willing to go. How can a future possibly be considered when the risks are so high?
Описание: This compact history traces the computer industry from 1950s mainframes, through establishment of standards beginning in 1965, to personal computing in the 1980s and the Internet`s explosive growth since 1995. Martin Campbell-Kelly and Daniel Garcia-Swartz describe a steady trend toward miniaturization and explain its consequences.
Описание: This smart, riveting ("Los Angeles Times") history of the Internet free culture movement and its larger effects on society and the life and shocking suicide of Aaron Swartz, a founding developer of Reddit and Creative Commons written by "Slate" correspondent Justin Peters captures Swartz flawlessly ("The New York Times Book Review"). Aaron Swartz was a zealous young advocate for the free exchange of information and creative content online. He committed suicide in 2013 after being indicted by the government for illegally downloading millions of academic articles from a nonprofit online database. From the age of fifteen, when Swartz, a computer prodigy, worked with Lawrence Lessig to launch Creative Commons, to his years as a fighter for copyright reform and open information, to his work leading the protests against the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), to his posthumous status as a cultural icon, Swartz s life was inextricably connected to the free culture movement. Now Justin Peters examines Swartz s life in the context of 200 years of struggle over the control of information. In vivid, accessible prose, "The Idealist" situates Swartz in the context of other data moralists past and present, from lexicographer Noah Webster to ebook pioneer Michael Hart to NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden. In the process, the book explores the history of copyright statutes and the public domain; examines archivists ongoing quest to build the library of the future; and charts the rise of open access, the copyleft movement, and other ideologies that have come to challenge protectionist intellectual property policies. Peters also breaks down the government s case against Swartz and explains how we reached the point where federally funded academic research came to be considered private property, and downloading that material in bulk came to be considered a federal crime. "The Idealist" is an excellent survey of the intellectual property battlefield, and a sobering memorial to its most tragic victim ("The Boston Globe") and an essential look at the impact of the free culture movement on our daily lives and on generations to come."
