""This book is a collection of poems about finding inspiration in the small things that keep us going, even when feeling at our lowest. Some are specific to relationships, and self-development, others capture wider themes about looking forward, when it's difficult to do so. They are from observations and conversations, and some are my own personal experiences.""

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. Learn how Linkerd works and which tasks it can help you accomplish Install and configure Linkerd in an imperative and declarative manner Secure interservice traffic and set up secure multicluster links Launch a zero trust authorization strategy in Kubernetes clusters Organize services in Linkerd to override error codes, set custom retries, and create timeouts Use Linkerd to manage progressive delivery and pair this service mesh with the ingress of your choice

Lone Survivor meets Marley & Me in this “inspiring and very moving” (Bear Grylls, host of the hit TV show Man vs. Wild) memoir of an extraordinary service dog whose enduring love brought a wounded soldier back to life.A decade ago, special forces warrior Jason Morgan parachuted into the Central American jungle on an antinarcotics raid. He’d served with the famous Night Stalkers on countless such missions. This one was different. Months later, he regained consciousness in a U.S. military hospital with no memory of how he’d gotten there. The first words he heard were from his surgeon telling him he would never walk again. The determined soldier responded, “Sir, yes, I will.” After multiple surgeries, unbearable chronic pain, and numerous setbacks, Morgan was finally making progress when his wife left him and their three young sons. He was a single father confined to a wheelchair and tortured by his pain. At this very dark, very low point, Morgan found light: Napal, the black Labrador who would change his life forever. A Dog Called Hope is the incredible story of a service dog who brought a devastated warrior back from the brink and taught him how to be a true father. It is the story of Napal, who built bridges between his wheelchair-bound battle buddy and the rest of able-bodied humankind. It is the story of Jason, who found life’s true meaning with the help of his faithful companion. Humorous, intensely moving, and uplifting, Jason and Napal’s heartwarming tale will brighten any day and lift every heart.

Japan emerged from the Edo Period (1600-1868) with a legal system which, in many ways, tended to privilege situational judgment over strict adherence to universally-applicable legal codes. Under pressure from without and within to modernize, Japan adopted many Western laws and jurisprudential practices which were largely alien to Japanese society. At the same time, Japan took on Western modes of political participation which tended to exacerbate more than solve the social ills attendant on industrialization and modernity. Suehiro Izutar?, a legal scholar at the University of Tokyo, and a group of likeminded professors and activists attempted to ameliorate Japanese social problems through a case law method, making the courts more responsive to the poor through the application of a native form of Japanese equity from the Edo Period. However, as Japan s regional reach expanded and the world situation darkened, the prerogatives of empire cut short Suehiro s social experiments and eventually co-opted even Suehiro himself in imperial logic. Japanese law is often approach comparatively, but in this study the inner workings of law in Japan jurisprudentially as well as philosophically and politically are given priority. By foregrounding case studies and other primary sources in Japanese, Equity under Empire shows how Japan, and the Japanese legal-political system, changed from the inside. Following the career of one of the twentieth century s most prominent legal minds, Equity under Empire maps the intellectual and historical twists and turns that set Japan on a course far removed from Edo equity, grappling with the internal contradictions of imperialism as she moved beyond the archipelago in a struggle with Anglo-European powers in Asia and the Pacific. This is a from-the-inside look at the life of the law in Japan from the closing years of Edo through the first half of the twentieth century. Equity under Empire is an important book for collections on East Asian history and law, and on law and legal philosophy in general.
