Sobre este artículo
Atlanta, GA: Longstreet Press, 2004. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. Very good/Good. xiii, [1], 256, [2] pages. Signed by the author with the sentiment Best Wishes on the title page. DJ has some wear and soiling. Includes Foreword by Steven Brill, Author's Note, and Prologue. Part 1 covers Today's Uncertain World; Part 2 covers Ties That Bind; Part 3 covers The Promise of Biometrics; Part Four covers the DNA Revolution; Part Five covers Guidelines for Using Technology Responsibly; Part Six covers a Call to Action; and Part Seven covers A Big Picture Perspective. Derek V. Smith was the CEO of ChoicePoint from 1997 until its acquisition by Reed Elsevier. Previously, Smith was an executive for Equifax. He holds degrees from Penn State and Georgia Tech. Mr. Smith is the author of three books. In "A Purpose Under Heaven," Smith uses allegory to explore the benefits and risks of technology to society. He is also the author of two nonfiction works, "The Risk Revolution: Threats Facing Technology's Promise for a Safer Tomorrow" and "A Survival Guide in the Information Age." This book provides a fast-paced commentary about why we live in a different time where risks have changed. It goes beyond analysis with information about how powerful new technologies can stop the efforts of criminals, terrorists, and sociopaths. It shows how data analytics, biometrics, and DNA analysis can counter the hackers, identity thieves, pornographers, and sexual predators as well as freeing the innocent and targeting the guilty. This provocative book offers a message of concern and hope. It deals with issues of interest to us all--safety, security, and privacy--issues that impact each of us personally as well as our families and communities. This book goes beyond analysis with information about how powerful new technologies can stop the efforts of criminals, terrorists, and sociopaths. It shows how data analytics, biometrics, and DNA analysis can counter the hackers, identity thieves, pornographers, and sexual predators as well as freeing the the innocent and targeting the guilty.
