The pinnacle of Buddhism's understanding of reality is the emptiness of all things. Exploring reality towards the realization of emptiness is shockingly radical. It uncovers an exhilarating freedom with nowhere to stand, while engendering a loving joy that engages the world. This path-breaking book employs the emptiness teachings in a fresh, innovative way. Goode and Sander don't rely solely on historical models and meditations. Instead, they have created over eighty original meditations on the emptiness of the self, issues in everyday life, and spiritual paths. These meditations are guided both by Buddhist insights and cutting-edge Western tools of inquiry, such as positive psychology, neuroscience, linguistic philosophy, deconstruction, and scepticism. The result is a set of liberating and usable tools for Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike.

The ACM Workshop on Security and Privacy in Digital Rights Management is the first scientific workshop dedicated solely to this topic, held in conjunction with the Eighth ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security in Philadelphia on November 5, 2001. Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology aims to provide comprehensive solutions for the digital distribution of electronic goods, emphasizing the necessity of robust security and privacy features. The workshop received 50 submissions, a notable achievement for a first-time event, from which 15 papers were selected for presentation. These papers explore a wide range of techniques, including cryptography, system architecture, and the cryptanalysis of existing DRM systems. Notably, three papers focus on software tamper resistance, a relatively underexplored area in scientific literature. Another paper discusses the renewability of security measures, highlighting its significance in DRM systems. Additionally, three papers delve into the economic and legal dimensions of digital distribution, emphasizing that technical security measures must consider the broader context of legal enforcement and business models they are intended to support. This intersection of technology, law, and economics is crucial for effective deployment of security and anti-piracy measures.
