Back in 1980, in Houston, Texas, I was bullied in high school. I tried to ignore the gang but the bullying just grew worse. The first major attack was at a bonfire party and about 30 teens attacked me in my car. A number of them then showed up later that night at my home and attacked my family in our own front yard.My family was terrorized for months including horrible death threats of our bodies being found in a bag in bloody pieces. I was attacked with bats, chains and tire irons on multiple occasions. My friends were also attacked with bricks and were constantly threatened to stay away from me. I was completely ostracized, with the exception of one amazing friend, Jim, who stuck by me.I nearly failed every class that semester and I had been a consistent straight-A honor student. It got so bad my family had to hire private security and we armed ourselves. Our life had become a gut-wrenching nightmare. Even after several nervous breakdowns, I refused to back down and we beat the bullies in a court of law. I became the first person in the country to hold parents legally responsible for the actions of their kids.I am Mark Simon and this is my story.

After enduring a vicious bear attack in the Russian Far East's Kamchatka Peninsula, a French anthropologist undergoes a physical and spiritual transformation that forces her to confront the tenuous distinction between animal and human. In the Eye of the Wild begins with an account of the French anthropologist Nastassja Martin’s near fatal run-in with a Kamchatka bear in the mountains of Siberia. Martin’s professional interest is animism; she addresses philosophical questions about the relation of humankind to nature, and in her work she seeks to partake as fully as she can in the lives of the indigenous peoples she studies. Her violent encounter with the bear, however, brings her face-to-face with something entirely beyond her ken—the untamed, the nonhuman, the animal, the wild. In the course of that encounter something in the balance of her world shifts. A change takes place that she must somehow reckon with. Left severely mutilated, dazed with pain, Martin undergoes multiple operations in a provincial Russian hospital, while also being grilled by the secret police. Back in France, she finds herself back on the operating table, a source of new trauma. She realizes that the only thing for her to do is to return to Kamchatka. She must discover what it means to have become, as the Even people call it, medka, a person who is half human, half bear. In the Eye of the Wild is a fascinating, mind-altering book about terror, pain, endurance, and self-transformation, comparable in its intensity of perception and originality of style to J. A. Baker’s classic The Peregrine. Here Nastassja Martin takes us to the farthest limits of human being.

The wording "Under Attack" implies a dangerous situation - one that signifies we are currently under assault. In this book, the Celebrity Experts(r) showcased are in the vanguard of protecting data and sensitive information under threat - the threat of digital information being made available to unscrupulous sources, and at times just pure vandalism. There are very few businesses, organizations or even individuals left in this country that don't use electronics today. The Electronic Revolution has been all-encompassing. Remaining vestiges of 'old world' practices - like manually writing or recording transactions or events, or the time-honored tradition of 'hiding money under the mattress' - have all but disappeared. So, along with the use of bows and arrows and pony dispatch riders, these are becoming historical markers strewn along the path of progress. The Celebrity Experts(r) in this book are people who are in business to protect digital information. In addition to unscrupulous sources that wish to profit from competitive information, businesses also have to deal with governmental regulations that ensure both consumers privacy as well as organizational transparency as well. Penalties for not adopting legislated governmental requirements in medical, financial and various other industries are severe. The information herein highlights the usefulness and ability of these experts - and their expertise is varied. We should not be surprised that electronic systems are "Under Attack," and also, that these Celebrity Experts(r) are not merely qualified, but more importantly, experienced in helping stave off the inevitable attacks that businesses, governments and organizations face daily. Using such expertise is a form of insurance, without which the cost of remediation can be devastatin
