Morgan and his contributors develop the concept of the Information Regime as a way to understand the use, abuse, and control of information in East Asia during the Cold War period.

During the Cold War, war itself was changing, as was statecraft. Information emerged as the most valuable commodity, becoming the key component of societies across the globe. This was especially true in East Asia, where the military alliances forged in the wake of World War II were put to the most severe of tests. These tests came in the form of adversarial relations between the United States and the Soviet Union, as well as pressures within their alliances, which eventually caused the People’s Republic of China to break with from Moscow, while Japan for a time during the 1950s and 1660s seemed poised to move away from Washington. More important than military might, or economic influence, was the creation of "information regimes" – swathes of territory where a paradigm, ideology, or political arrangement were obtained. Information regimes are not necessarily state-centric and many of the contributors to this book focus on examples which were not so. Such a focus allows us to see that the East Asian Cold War was not really "cold" at all, but was the epicentre of an active, contentious birth of information as the defining element of human interaction.

This book is a valuable resource for historians of East Asia and of developments in information management in the twentieth century.

With the massive adoption of microservices, operators and developers face far more complexity in their applications today. Service meshes can help you manage this problem by providing a unified control plane to secure, manage, and monitor your entire network. This practical guide shows you how the Linkerd service mesh enables cloud-native developers—including platform and site reliability engineers—to solve the thorny issue of running distributed applications in Kubernetes.

Jason Morgan and Flynn draw on their years of experience at Buoyant—the creators of Linkerd—to demonstrate how this service mesh can help ensure that your applications are secure, observable, and reliable. You''ll understand why Linkerd, the original service mesh, can still claim the lowest time to value of any mesh option available today.

It''s All About the Buzz: Understanding Terrace Culture is a collection of authentic stories and memories of football fans from across the UK and reflections on growing up in the 80s and 90s. From the music to fashion, epic football wins to after-match brawls, the recollections paint a varied and accurate view of life at the time. The voices are unapologetic but at the same time define and defend views that may be questioned today.

The description of levels of rivalries between other fans and groups and political tensions of that era hit home how hardcore support was for your chosen team and the levels you would go to rise above the rest.

This is a time capsule of lost tales, stories that, until now, haven''t been shared with the masses. It''s a fascinating snapshot of the past that is sure to be recognised by anyone who came of age at the time.
