Hieroglyphs from A to Z is the first book published by PomegranateKids™, an imprint of Pomegranate Communications, in collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Originally published in 1991, this popular best-seller has been out of print for many years. With bold graphics, charming, rhyming text, and solid educational content, it explains the hieroglyphic code while imparting important facts about ancient Egypt. As an added bonus, a separate sheet of stencils is provided, slipped inside the back cover, so that kids can easily draw their own hieroglyphs. All told, this is the perfect book for any small visitor to a museum with Egyptian artifacts, or for any child who simply loves words and pictures.

Deterrence―a central feature of counterterrorism security systems and a major factor in the cost-effectiveness of many security programs―is not well understood or measured. This paper offers a framework for understanding how security systems may deter or displace attacks and how to measure the relative deterrent value of alternative systems. This framework may aid in attempts to achieve increased security benefits with limited resources.
