Description
On TruthHaving outlined a theory of bullshit and falsehood, Harry G. Frankfurt turns to what lies beyond them: the truth, a concept not as obvious as some might expect. Our culture's devotion to bullshit may seem much stronger than our apparently halfhearted attachment to truth. Some people (professional thinkers) won't even acknowledge "true" and "false" as meaningful categories, and even those who claim to love truth cause the rest of us to wonder whether
Having outlined a theory of bullshit and falsehood, Harry G. Frankfurt turns to what lies beyond them: the truth, a concept not as obvious as some might expect.Our culture's devotion to bullshit may seem much stronger than our apparently halfhearted attachment to truth. Some people (professional thinkers) won't even acknowledge "true" and "false" as meaningful categories, and even those who claim to love truth cause the rest of us to wonder whether they, too, aren't simply full of it. Practically speaking, many of us deploy the truth only when absolutely necessary, often finding alternatives to be more saleable, and yet somehow civilization seems to be muddling along. But where are we headed? Is our fast and easy way with the facts actually crippling us? Or is it "all good"? Really, what's the use of truth, anyway?With the same leavening wit and commonsense wisdom that animates his pathbreaking work On Bullshit, Frankfurt encourages us to take another look at the truth: there may be something there that is perhaps too plain to notice but for which we have a mostly unacknowledged yet deep-seated passion. His book will have sentient beings across America asking, "The truth--why didn't I think of that?"Binding Type: Hardcover

Great book on Android malware reverse engineering and detection!
Format: Paperback
This book offers a holistic approach for learning how to deal with malware targeting Android platform. I find this book to be equally interesting to read for both people with little experience in the domain of malware analysis as quick-start guide as well as for experienced reverse engineers who would want to translate their knowledge from malware analysis in other platforms to Android. This book is definitely worth the time reading it.
The first half of the book is a great source of information on reverse engineering Android malware. Chapters on categories of Android Malware and examples of the malware in the wild set up the necessary context for the readers and help to better understand why Android malware focuses on certain infection/monetization techniques. It also bring context in the evolution of mitigation and hardening in Android platform.
Chapters on static and dynamic analysis are very practical and engaging to read which I probably enjoyed the most in the book. They teach readers how to do reverse engineering of Android malware -- covers tooling, methodologies, hints to look for in the code or binary artifacts when doing reverse engineering.
The second half of the book is dedicated to using machine learning techniques for detecting malware. It starts with a concise yet self-contained necessary theoretical background. In my point of view the authors hit a very good balance for making material accurate and comprehensive yet easy to read and follow along for people without extensive background in the field (which is not a trivial thing for math texts). As it is probably impossible to fit all the necessary theoretical material in a single (or even couple of chapters) they text offers references to sources which cover certain topics in-depth -- for those readers who would like to dive deeper in machine learning. Finally, the book wraps with application of the discussed machine learning techniques to certain malware families.
