What is the Niantic Project? In November 2012, a series of leaks began to emerge, revealing a conspiracy that would reshape the destiny of mankind. Exotic Matter Portals, Ordered Data, a mind-altering signal that some say can change the way we think, and Ingress, a government tool camouflaged as a mobile phone game. P.A. Chapeau’s Investigation began with revelations about ‘The Niantic Project,’ a secret government think tank run by a defunct intelligence agency, and continued on, ultimately revealing a hidden movement to co-opt the highest positions of leadership in governments and cultural power-centers worldwide. From the initial discovery of the Niantic Project in The Sphere of Weirdness to the unearthing of a global conspiracy in Operation Cassandra, each document from P.A. Chapeau’s daily investigation is presented here, in Volume 1 of The Niantic Project Files.
When she first agreed to lead the research team of the Niantic Project, Dr. Devra Bogdanovich knew she was headed into the unknown. What she never could have imagined is where her dangerous, and potentially world-changing, exploration of Exotic Matter would lead her. After the chaos of the evening known as Epiphany Night explodes into murder and betrayal, the NIA seeks other ways to continue the ongoing research while Devra finds herself on the run and ensnared in a game of cat and mouse with the most powerful thinking machine ever created, a detection algorithm known as ADA. As ADA follows her digital trail, Devra is also pursued by both a relentless assassin and a rogue NIA agent. Now determined to restart her quest for understanding this transdimensional building block known as Exotic Matter, Devra recruits a team of her own to stop Niantic and uncover the ultimate truth of XM. Is it the key to unlocking an enlightened future? Or is it a tool for the ultimate enslavement of mankind?

Crop plant varieties developed by local farmers, commonly referred to as ‘farmers' varieties’, are problematic because there are no fixed taxonomic or legal definitions of them. As a result, policies to increase the share of benefits farmers receive from the use of such varieties struggle to have an effect. Aiming to clarifying these issues, this volume explores the nature of farmers’ varieties in the context of their biological, social and legal significance. The book addresses the complexities of defining what farmers’ varieties are and how they differ from one another and from generic varieties. It then charts the evolution of the concept of ‘farmers’ rights’, from the dawn ...
