A detailed history of the blossoming of psychedelic research in the
1950s * Explores the different groups--from research labs to the
military--who were seeking how best to utilize LSD and other
promising psychedelics like mescaline * Reintroduces forgotten
scientists like Robert Hyde and Rosalind Heywood * Looks at the
CIA's notorious top-secret mind-control program MKUltra * Reveals
how intellectuals, philosophers, artists, and mystics of the 1950s
used LSD to bring ancient rites into the modern ageExploring the
initial stages of psychedelic study in Europe and America, Thomas
Hatsis offers a full history of the psychedelic-fueled revolution
in healing and consciousness expansion that blossomed in the
1950s--the first "golden age" of psychedelic research. Revealing
LSD as a "wonder child" rather than Albert Hofmann's infamous
"problem child," the author focuses on the extensive studies with
LSD that took place in the '50s. He explores the different
groups--from research labs to the military to bohemian art
circles--who were seeking how best to utilize LSD and other
promising psychedelics like mescaline. Sharing the details of many
primary source medical reports, the author examines how doctors saw
LSD as a tool to gain access to the minds of schizophrenics and
thus better understand the causes of mental illness.The author also
looks at how the CIA believed LSD could be turned into a powerful
mind-control weapon, including a full account of the notorious
top-secret program MKUltra. Reintroducing forgotten scientists like
Robert Hyde, the first American to take LSD, and parapsychologist
Rosalind Heywood, who believed LSD and mescaline opened doors to
mystical and psychic abilities, the author also discusses how the
infl uences of Central American mushroom ceremonies and peyote
rites crossbred with experimental Western mysticism during the
1950s, turning LSD from a possible madness mimicker or mind weapon
into a sacramental medicine. Finally, he explores how philosophers,
parapsychologists, and mystics sought to use LSD to usher in a new
age of human awareness.
CYBER THREAT INTELLIGENCE "Martin takes a thorough and focused
approach to the processes that rule threat intelligence, but he
doesn't just cover gathering, processing and distributing
intelligence. He explains why you should care who is trying to hack
you, and what you can do about it when you know." —Simon Edwards,
Security Testing Expert, CEO SE Labs Ltd., Chair AMTSO Effective
introduction to cyber threat intelligence, supplemented with
detailed case studies and after action reports of intelligence on
real attacks Cyber Threat Intelligence introduces the history,
terminology, and techniques to be applied within cyber security,
offering an overview of the current state of cyberattacks and
stimulating readers to consider their own issues from a threat
intelligence point of view. The author takes a systematic,
system-agnostic, and holistic view to generating, collecting, and
applying threat intelligence. The text covers the threat
environment, malicious attacks, collecting, generating, and
applying intelligence and attribution, as well as legal and ethical
considerations. It ensures readers know what to look out for when
considering a potential cyber attack and imparts how to prevent
attacks early on, explaining how threat actors can exploit a
system's vulnerabilities. It also includes analysis of large scale
attacks such as WannaCry, NotPetya, Solar Winds, VPNFilter, and the
Target breach, looking at the real intelligence that was available
before and after the attack. Topics covered in Cyber Threat
Intelligence include: The constant change of the threat environment
as capabilities, intent, opportunities, and defenses change and
evolve Different business models of threat actors, and how these
dictate the choice of victims and the nature of their attacks
Planning and executing a threat intelligence programme to improve
an organistation’s cyber security posture Techniques for
attributing attacks and holding perpetrators to account for their
actions Cyber Threat Intelligence describes the intelligence
techniques and models used in cyber threat intelligence. It
provides a survey of ideas, views and concepts, rather than
offering a hands-on practical guide. It is intended for anyone who
wishes to learn more about the domain, particularly if they wish to
develop a career in intelligence, and as a reference for those
already working in the area.

Children participate in sport at all levels, from school
involvement to international competitions. With the growing concern
about the mental and physical pressures which can be exerted on a
child, the coach's traditional role is developing and expanding.
They now need to be aware of the ways problems like depression,
anxiety and sports injuries occur and how they can be prevented.
This book has been written to fill the gap which exists between the
theory and practice of coaching children. Academics (many with
coaching experience) and practitioners have been commissioned to
write on their specialist areas. The book contains clear,
accessible information divided up into five parts: children in the
world of sport; developmental changes in children; psychological
aspects of participation; applications to the coaching process; and
good practice in coaching. Within these parts, the theory behind
the need for good communication, counselling, training, dealing
with injuries and nutrition is given, along with examples of how to
put these ideas into practice. This book should be of interest to
sports coaches and undergraduates on physical education, sports
studies and sports science courses
This book has arisen out of a need for a text which tackles the
special issues relating to coaching children (from 6 - 16) in
sport. Academics (many with coaching experience) and practitioners
have been commissioned to write on their specialist areas.
