Tells the tragic story of Puerto Ricans who sought the post-Civil War regime of citizenship, rights, and statehood but instead received racist imperial governance.
Group theory appears to be a promising source of hard computational problems for deploying new cryptographic constructions. This reference focuses on the specifics of using groups, including in particular non-Abelian groups, in the field of cryptography. It provides an introduction to cryptography with emphasis on the group theoretic perspective, making it one of the first books to use this approach. The authors provide the needed cryptographic and group theoretic concepts, full proofs of essential theorems, and formal security evaluations of the cryptographic schemes presented. They also provide references for further reading and exercises at the end of each chapter.

A comprehensive history of the women’s suffrage movement in the United States, from 1776 to 1965 Most suffrage histories begin in 1848, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton first publicly demanded the right to vote at the Women’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, New York. And they end in 1920, when Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the 19th Amendment, removing sexual barriers to the vote.

Three years, half a million miles of travel across the world, a huge number of first time visits, and a vast collection of new experiences and memories...This is the unique focus of Extraordinarily Rich Memories Of My First Time In....by Maurice Samuel. In it, he shares these personal experiences, that he wrote contemporaneously as emails to friends between 2007-2010. From playing the Pied Piper in Mumbai, swimming with sea lions in the Galapagos, being stopped by police on his way to Guantanamo, bathing at night in the Dead Sea, partying at Christmas in hyper-exclusive Mustique, horseback riding in the wilds of Cotopaxi volcano, whitewater rafting and zip-lining in Costa Rica, the ups and downs of Carnaval in Santa Cruz...and many, many more. Whilst the book’s focus is this period, he brings it up to date, with his more recent experiences from travels to places like Kazakhstan, where he is constantly asked for selfies, his struggles to leave Uzbekistan, and taking a two week cruise through South East Asia without knowing where it’s going from day to day. The book is richly illustrated with his personal photographs and videos.
