Paperback. Very Good., 3, Paperback. Very Good., 3, Condition: Very good, light edge wear, spine creasing, light nicks at ends of spine.Cryptonomicon zooms all over the world, careening conspiratorially back and forth between two time periodsWorld War II and the present. Our 1940s heroes are the brilliant mathematician Lawrence Waterhouse, crypt analyst extraordinaire, and gung-ho, morphine-addicted marine Bobby Shaftoe. They're part of Detachment 2702, an Allied group trying to break Axis communication codes while simultaneously preventing the enemy from figuring out that their codes have been broken. Their job boils down to layer upon layer of deception. Dr. Alan Turing is also a member of 2702, and he explains the unit's strange workings to Waterhouse. "When we want to sink a convoy, we send out an observation plane first... Of course, to observe is not its real dutywe already know exactly where the convoy is. Its real duty is to be observed... Then, when we come round and sink them, the Germans will not find it suspicious."All of this secrecy resonates in the present-day story line, in which the grandchildren of the WWII heroesinimitable programming geek Randy Waterhouse and the lovely and powerful Amy Shaftoeteam up to help create an offshore data haven in Southeast Asia and maybe uncover some gold once destined for Nazi coffers. To top off the paranoiac tone of the book, the mysterious Enoch Root, key member of Detachment 2702 and the Societas Eruditorum, pops up with an unbreakable encryption scheme left over from WWII to befuddle the 1990s protagonists with conspiratorial ties., Avon, 2002, 3, UsedAcceptable.

Venture capital is the rocket fuel of the new, high-tech economy. The Internet...it's a wild ride. High-flying Internet companies seem to operate by their own set of rules--outside the natural laws of gravity that apply to most businesses. It's an environment in which perception is more important than profits, and "mind share" is greater that market share. This is Zero Gravity, and it's what all Internet start-ups aspire to. But how do garage entrepreneurs and Internet junkies make the transition from the first caffeine-induced idea to blockbuster IPO and instant-millionaire status? The answer is venture capital--which has funded nearly every successful start-up. This book by noted Internet stock analyst Steve Harmon provides an insider's edge and a savvy look inside the topsy-turvy culture of venture capital and Silicon Valley start-ups. ., Bloomberg Press, 1999, 5, New Riders Publishing, 9/22/2000 12:00:01 A. paperback.

In a lethal game of cat-and-mouse that is the Soviet Union versus the United States, the Pope's life is in danger, as is the stability of the Western world. Jack Ryan is at the center of the action, but it may already be too late for a novice CIA analyst to do anything about the conflict. This is Clancy at his best--and there is none better., G.P.

"No one imagined that October would break out in such a way and that the generalized silence that we lived as territory would explode into a catharsis that would exceed all our expectations. And it is that clearly the historical processes are much richer in experiences than any analyst can foresee. Likewise, these processes have thousands of subtleties and nooks and crannies that, as much as it bothers, no observation that overlooks emotions can really measure in their depths, no matter how much it disguises itself as scientific rigor."

The Serenity Prayer states:Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,The courage to change the things I can,And the wisdom to know the difference.Exploring the prayer phrase by phrase, Morris shows the hope that can be found by gaining a deeper spiritual understanding of its words and by practicing its message. Enlightening and profound, The Way of Serenity includes moving narratives, illuminating historical anecdotes, and pertinent biblical passages that demonstrate the power of the Serenity Prayer to help us grow closer to God and find greater peace and happiness., Harperone, 2015-08, 5, Blue Arrow Books, 1990.

Lik A Pirate of Exquisite Mind (SOFTCOVER CONDITION FAIR EPILOGE PAGES326-372 HAVE A WAVE TO TOP EDGE OF PAGES-PUBLISHED BY WALKER AND CO. -COPYRIGHT 2004...374 PAGES. ) Diana & Michael Preston (Author) William Dampier, a Scot, was a fascinating person. Like so many young unattached men of his time, he naturally turned to the sea as a means of livelihood. Like most sailors, he was a keen observer of the world around him. However, unlike many of his peers, he documented those observations, kept his papers in good order, and published his observations as sort of a half scientific journal/half travel story. He became sort of a folk hero to the large portions of English population who were wealthy enough to own his books, but not to experience the larger world first hand. His keen scientific observations deeply influenced meteorology, biology, and cartography for the next two hundred years. His charts were still in use as late as WWII. Today, it is difficult for a layperson to be taken seriously by scientific community. Thus a common sailor and buccaneer who is also at the cutting edge of scientific study seems somewhat incredulous to the modern reader. Yet, in this sense, the 16th and 17th century scientific community was a bit more egalitarian then the current one. Yet this is a world where slavery was accepted as a fact of life and basic human dignity, especially for non-whites, was a luxury vice a fundamental right. Likewise, Dampier himself was a case study in contradictions. A keen observer and analyst of the natural world, he seems completely unable to understand human nature. A gifted planner, navigator, and tough fighter; he fails at every leadership role that life thrusts upon him. Despite the fact that he was almost a folk hero at the time of his last expedition, he is more or less forgotten to the modern world with the exception of Western Australia. He was, after all, the first Englishman to visit Australia-sorry Capt Cook. This book will appeal to anyone who is interested in the age of exploration, the history of science, or British history in the late 17th Century., WALKER AND CO, 2004, 2, New York: Pocket Books, 2006. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. 4x1x7. Spine creased. 2006 Mass Market Paperback. 734 pp. When a new NASA satellite spots evidence of an astonishingly rare object buried deep in the Arctic ice, the floundering space agency proclaims a much-needed victory...a victory that has profound implications for US space policy and the impending presidential election. With the Oval Office in the balance, the President dispatches White House Intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton to the Milne Ice Shelf to verify the authenticity of the find. Accompanied by a team of experts, including the charismatic academic Michael Tolland, Rachel uncovers the unthinkable: evidence of scientific trickery—a bold deception that threatens to plunge the world into controversy. But before Rachel can contact the President, she and Michael are attacked by a deadly team of assassins controlled by a mysterious power broker who will stop at nothing to hide the truth. Fleeing for their lives in an environment as desolate as it is lethal, their only hope for survival is to find out who is behind this masterful ploy. The truth, they will learn, is the most shocking deception of all. In his most thrilling novel to date, bestselling author Dan Brown transports readers from the ultrasecret National Reconnaissance Office to the towering ice shelves of the Arctic Circle, and back again to the hallways of power inside the West Wing. Heralded for masterfully intermingling science, history, and politics in his critically acclaimed thriller Angels & Demons, Brown has crafted another novel in which nothing is as it seems—and behind every corner is a stunning surprise.
