Customer reviews A competent treatment by .. Allezsandro ()
A decent treatment with a good balance between technical and layman's perspective; all I could wish for is that he would put out updates to track newer technology ... an admittedly endless chore!
The Phone Book: by .. (MI, United States)
I recommend this book totally. Everyone should read it. We can send video back from Pluto, yet Americans imagine that telephony can't be used against them. We have a culture of denial that assumes technology is benign and that no one wants to use it against us. We are somewhat willing to distrust computer security because computers are recent additions to our life. We aren't at all willing to distrust our phones. They keep us connected. Our lives revolve around them. They are the guardians of our secrets. And, after all, the fear of wiretapping laws deters the crime... Americans need to face the reality of the techology arrayed in this book, and stop believing this kind is harassment is rare. We need books like this to tell us this equipment is not sci-fi. It's cheap, easily available, and easy to use. It's use is not limited to three-letter agencies. It's in the basements of neighbors and co-workers. Radio technology is easier to learn than hacking, which we take seriously, and cheaper to implement. It's even more innocuous. Any people who are worried about internet safety should think about it first. We think electronic voyeurism is rare. We just don't know we're victims. It's a crime commited in secret without obvious clues...but that doesn't make it harmless. The same technophiles who sit alone in a room violating your privacy with a computer are very likely to hook a scanner to it... I enjoyed Mr. Shannon's heart-felt discussion of escalating Federal wiretapping/eavesdropping laws. I believe he would agree that only personal awareness and consumer-driven demands for increased privacy will supply safer technology. Agencies at any level aren't often willing to protect average individuals from invasion. Increased Federal "protection" will take our chance to protect ourselves away.
Everything you need to know... by .. (Norway)
This is one of the few books I really can say answered all my expections... Great technical details, yet in plain english... ENJOY!

Product Description Every year two million people are accidentally poisoned by something they encounter in or around the house, and more than half of them are children. While most parents know to keep medicines, cleansers, and anti-freeze safely locked away, many are not aware of other potential hazards, like freshly cut azaleas, daffodil bulbs, or the takeout Chinese food left sitting on the counter. Deadly Daffodils, Toxic Caterpillars is the first consumer guide to identifying household poisons, as well as preventing and treating accidental poisoning. More than 150 common and uncommon substances are identified—from medications to mushrooms, morning glories to daylilies, leftovers to alcohol, caterpillars to spiders. This easy-access guide offers all the information you need to keep your family safe from hazards, and explains clearly how to take effective action should an accident occur. It even includes a section on safety for household pets. The first ever single-volume, all-inclusive book on poisons written for family use, Deadly Daffodils, Toxic Caterpillars belongs in every home. This important—and potentially lifesaving —book should be required reading for parents, school nurses, teachers, and administrators, as well as camp counselors, babysitters, and other child-care workers. Customer reviews Good Suggestions to Read Before a Toxic Emergency+ by .. Magickal Merlin (Death Valley-SoCal)
This book is a medical emergency feather-weight.I would not recommend thumbing your way through it,in the event of a real situation.I would say you should read through it beforehand,and familiarize yourself with some of the tragic scenerios.Eighty percent of the first actions for aid is to call the Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222).Well,that seems like common-sense.It basically gives minor first aid suggestions before getting real assistance from medical professionals.The knowledge is of value for novices and technicians alike.How to handle accidental medication and herbal overdoses.How to handle toxic plants,shrubs,trees, and mushrooms.Recognising toxic snakes and poisoness toads. Avoiding dangerous stinging insects.Chemicals to avoid being tangible with.Microscopic water creatures around that should be avoided.Being wary of food poisoning,at home and in the market-place.Keeping your kids safe from poisons in the nursey and playroom.Setting safeguards for your curious pets.And a complete list of resources concerning poison prevention and response.This book is a good guide to read over and keep on hand.Yet,two problems with the book.Firstly,you should be familiar with any potential stressful emergency situations beforehand.And that may be impractical .And more first aid knowledge should be presented,beyond just contacting Poison Control for instructions.Luckily,your cell phone is commonplace thesedays and is of valuable assistance in itself.
