Guilty of Journalism: The Political Case against Julian Assange
by Kevin GosztolaFrom an acclaimed independent journalist, this carefully-documented analysis of the government&’s case against Julian Assange and its implications for press freedom acts as a crucial, compelling guidebook to Assange&’s upcoming trial.The legal action against Julian Assange is poised to culminate in a trial in the United States in 2023, and this book will help the public understand the proceedings. The establishment media's coverage of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's extradition case has focused on his deteriorating health and what CBS News called his &“secret family,&” but most of this coverage failed to detail the complex issues at stake against Assange. Guilty of Journalism outlines how WikiLeaks exposed the reality of American wars, the United States government&’s unprecedented indictment against Assange as a publisher, and the media&’s role in persuading the public to &“shoot the messenger.&”This new book by Kevin Gosztola, who has spent the last decade covering Assange, WikiLeaks, and the wider war on whistleblowers, tells the full story based on testimony from dozens of witnesses. It examines abuses of power by the CIA and the FBI, including a spying operation that targeted Assange&’s family, lawyers, and doctors. Guilty of Journalism offers a balanced and comprehensive perspective on all the events leading up to what press freedom advocates have called the trial of the century.Guilty of Journalism is a joint production of The Censored Press and Seven Stories Press.

Gumoil Photographic Printing, Revised Edition
by Karl KoenigThere is renewed interest among art photographers in a number of historic printing techniques because of the remarkable effects they produce. The reader will discover how to create beautifully tinted mono- and polychromatic gum and oil images using the author's version of this 19th century technique. Step-by-step illustrated instructions with directions for further experimentation provide a perfect source for learning this new, yet old, printing technique. Gumoil printing involves contact-printing a positive transparency onto gum-coated paper. Oil paint is then applied and rubbed into nongummed areas of the print. With bleach etching, mono- and polychromatic variations are possible. A chapter on digital printing combines the new and the historic, making this technique even more accessible for the art photographer.
Guns and Crime: The Data Don't Lie
by Mark GiusGuns and Crime: The Data Don’t Lie investigates the ways in which the current data on guns and crime are inadequate and inaccurate. Although the majority of murders in the United States are committed with guns, research on gun ownership, the supply of guns, and the relationship between guns and crime is less thorough than studies done for many other aspects of public safety policy. This book explores the weaknesses in current findings, and extrapolates the implications of policymaking based on these faulty foundations. As the gun debate continues to rage in North America, this text offers a cautionary voice to the discourse—before practitioners and policy makers can create a solution to gun violence, they must first improve the quality of the facts they use to make their case. Intended for criminology, statistics, sociology, and economics students, Guns and Crime is also suitable for interested laypersons and practitioners hoping to better understand the mythos surrounding guns in America.
Guns, An American Conversation: How to Bridge Political Divides
by The Editors at Spaceship MediaBased on an article by Pulitzer Prize–winning reporters, the fascinating results of an important nationwide conversation about guns: Can complete strangers representing every point along the political divide engage in civil and productive discourse on the topic of gun control?As Americans, we spend a lot of time talking about guns. We have arguments, protests, declarations, and slogans about what kind of weapons can be sold and to whom. But the one thing we rarely have when it comes to firearms is a real conversation, and not just with members of our own tribe, but with people whose ideas don&’t align with ours. That is perhaps why the country is so divided when it comes to reducing gun violence. Guns, an American Conversation follows up on a handful of strangers—teachers and gun-rights advocates, hunters and police officers, mothers and fathers across the United States—brought together in a larger group of 150 people, for a month-long moderated Facebook group chat. The goal of the project—which expanded on earlier efforts—was to foster a civil, yet honest, dialogue between people whose backgrounds and beliefs led them to have opposing views on the issue. Not just a journalistic account, Guns attempts to map out common territory in a nation driven by profound divides. It includes sidebars, charts, and graphics that list additional information about gun control in the United States and provide the reader with tools to continue the discussion in their own lives. This book might not change your mind about gun control, but it will help you learn to cross divides in conversation.
Gut gepackt – Kein Bit zu viel: Kompression digitaler Daten verständlich erklärt (essentials)
by Olaf ManzBei der heutigen Datenflut, die auf Speichermedien und im Internet kursiert, ist die Kompression digitaler Daten nach wie vor ein immens wichtiger Aspekt bei Datenübertragung und -speicherung. Dieses essential erläutert ohne theoretischen Überbau und mit elementaren mathematischen und informatischen Methoden die wichtigsten Kompressionsverfahren, so unter anderem die Entropiecodierungen von Shannon-Fano und von Huffman, sowie die Wörterbuchcodierungen der Lempel-Ziv-Familie. Ausführlich eingegangen wird auch auf Irrelevanzreduktion und die Quantisierung bei optischen und akustischen Signalen, die die Unzulänglichkeiten des menschlichen Auges und Ohres zur Datenkompression ausnutzen. Illustriert wird das Ganze anhand gängiger Praxisanwendungen aus dem alltäglichen Umfeld. Die Aufbereitung erlaubt den Einsatz beispielsweise in Arbeitsgruppen an MINT-Schulen, bei Einführungskursen an Hochschulen und ist auch für interessierte Laien geeignet.

Guía Para El Autor Independiente: Cómo Crear, Publicar Y Promocionar Tu Libro Para Kindle
by Natalia Steckel Nick VulichIndie Author's Toolbox fue escrito tanto para autores nuevos como para autores experimentados. Es una guía para optimizar tu libro para Kindle, pero eso no es todo. Demasiados autores consideran a Kindle como la meta final de sus libros. Están tan inmersos en optimizar su libro para Amazon, lanzar KDP Free Days, Countdown Deals, y variar sus precios que se olvidan de una cosa: millones de personas nunca han comprado un libro para Kindle, ni ningún otro tipo de libro electrónico. Es cierto: Amazon es el chico grande de la cuadra. Se calcula que tienen el 65 % del mercado de libros electrónicos en Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, si sé hacer las cuentas, eso deja un 35 % de lectores estadounidenses que disfrutan sus libros electrónicos servidos de otra manera. ¿Puedes darte el lujo de ignorarlos? La iStore de Apple es el segundo mercado de libros electrónicos más grande del mundo. Kobo tiene una presencia fuerte en Canadá y en muchos otros países. Barnes and Noble aún conserva más del 15 % del mercado. Además, no nos olvidemos de que a muchos lectores todavía les gustan los libros a la antigua: en papel que puedan pasar con los dedos, con esquinas que puedan doblar y márgenes que puedan escribir. Hay millones de lectores que prefieren escuchar un libro en lugar de leerlo. Si no tienes tu libro en ACX, estás perdiendo millones de lectores potenciales que compran en Audible, Amazon y en la iStore. ¿No me crees? Considera lo siguiente: durante mi primer mes en ACX vendí más de 200 audiolibros, con cuatro títulos disponibles. En el próximo mes espero tener los 22 títulos en audiolibros y obtener alrededor de 1000 ventas por mes. Todo lo que me costó fue un simple Fiverr para crear la tapa de cada audiolibro. Para los adictos a Amazon, también voy a brindarles algo de información que puede ayudarlos.¡Oye! ¿Quieres saber un secreto? No hay secretos.
