How to Access Your Hidden Brain Power

2009-01-14T00:27:00.000-08:00

288 pages | English | PDF | 7.27 MB

In this busy world, we're constantly asked to do more in less time. But how do you cope with the pressure? Idea mapping is the answer. It's an effective and revolutionary tool that enables you to meet the demands of life and work by improving your ability to plan, think, and learn.

Designed to help you use more of your brainpower with less effort, an idea map is a colorful visual representation of a particular issue, problem, or idea—among other applications—on a single piece of paper. Our brains are much better at absorbing, processing, and remembering information presented in the form of an idea map as opposed to information presented in a multi-linear document. Because idea maps represent facts and issues visually—engaging both hemispheres of the brain—they foster more efficient learning, enable you to approach problems more creatively, and help you think more systematically.

Author Jamie Nast has trained thousands of people at dozens of high-profile organizations on using idea maps. In Idea Mapping, she explains how you can apply the power of idea maps to your professional life—helping you and your teams plan better, increase productivity, organize complex information, save time, and develop new ideas and solutions.

To guide your way, this book includes actual idea maps created and used by twenty-one businesspeople from around the globe—as well as other handy resources you'll find on the CD-ROM. Nast explains the rules and logic of idea mapping and leads you through every step of the idea mapping process. She begins with simple idea maps and moves onto the more complex maps, while showing you how to understand and utilize idea maps to get the most benefit from them. In order to maximize the effectiveness of your maps, as well as your thinking, Nast guides you in overcoming potential obstacles when learning this valuable skill. More than just the theory of idea mapping, she provides a multitude of specific examples from which readers can gather ideas to begin practicing their own idea mapping skills.

The idea map is the ultimate tool for achieving more in business and in life. Whether you're an overwhelmed businessperson, an overworked entrepreneur, or someone who just wants to solve problems better and faster, Idea Mapping is a perfect tool for anyone who wants to work more efficiently—and succeed more spectacularly.

Computer Security And Cryptography

This book updates readers with all the tools, techniques, and concepts needed to understand and implement data security systems. It presents a wide range of topics for a thorough understanding of the factors that affect the efficiency of secrecy, authentication, and digital signature schema. Most importantly, readers gain hands-on experience in cryptanalysis and learn how to create effective cryptographic systems.

The author contributed to the design and analysis of the Data Encryption Standard (DES), a widely used symmetric-key encryption algorithm. His recommendations are based on firsthand experience of what does and does not work.

Thorough in its coverage, the book starts with a discussion of the history of cryptography, including a description of the basic encryption systems and many of the cipher systems used in the twentieth century. The author then discusses the theory of symmetric- and public-key cryptography. Readers not only discover what cryptography can do to protect sensitive data, but also learn the practical limitations of the technology. The book ends with two chapters that explore a wide range of cryptography applications.

With consumers becoming increasingly wary of identity theft and companies struggling to develop safe, secure systems, this book is essential reading for professionals in e-commerce and information technology. Written by a professor who teaches cryptography, it is also ideal for students.

The protection of critical information and systems is a major component of today's electronic business community. This valuable reference presents the primary hardware based computer security approaches in an easy to read toolbox format.

Advances in computer security technologies are occurring at a fast pace.
As a result, defenses (over time) are dynamic and forever evolving.
As new protective measures appear, new attacks are developed to defeat them, leading to corrective improvements in the protective measures, new attacks, and so on.
Hacker organizations, often formed with the intent of forcing developers to improve and harden the security features of their products, meet frequently to discuss new security technologies as well as new attack tools.
Challenges and contests in which participants try to break security products or operating systems are mounted frequently and the results published broadly, often to the consternation of the product developer.
As more applications migrate to open source, the opportunity for deeper testing of security features is enhanced.

"The Butterworth-Heinemann CIM Coursebooks have become an integral part of our blended learning approach
to delivering marketing qualifications. They are well aligned to the syllabus laid down by the Professional
Institute showing the cross-referencing of chapters to the relevant syllabus areas, which indeed is a critical
factor when attempting to study using the continuous assessment mode offered by the CIM. They are concise, easy to read,
and well structured. Many of our students have commented upon what an asset these have been to the study programme."
