This book lifted me up in my darkest times.
A quirky biologist, stranded far away from any civilization, probably doomed to death, having calculated the exact number of days his food will last, has the greatest day ever:
He realized that peeing on the soil will give his small potato farm just enough nutrients to thrive.
I don't remember if that scene actually happened in the book, but it truly captures how I felt reading it: In awe at how happy and resilient the protagonist is and how even in our darkest times, we feel joy from little things like peeing on dirt.
It's a wonderful book and one of my favorites just because of how it made me feel. I highly recommend it!
Gutes Sachbuch zur aktuellen geopolitischen Lage.
Allerdings an manchen Stellen etwas trocken und wiederholend.
Habe das Buch an einem Tag durchgelesen. Es ist sehr lustig, unterhaltsam und macht einfach Spaß!
Die Chemistry zwischen der Protagonistin und Shakespeare ist einfach köstlich und die wilden Situationen in die sich beide finden sind einfach zum Weglachen.
Empfehlung an jeden, der einfach Mal eine sehr unterhaltsamen Lesenachmittag haben will. 😁
A very interesting overview and grounded view of the real ways governments use hacking.
The idea of cyber war and cyber sabotage has always fascinated me, so this book was eye-opening: It contained a historic recount of when states have attempted it and why it's been never as flashy and useful as we imagined.
Highly recommend to anyone interested in the topic and wants to know the strength and weaknesses of cyber weapons and their current use in geopolitics.
