Autorenporträt
Kamal Hubbard is a lawyer by training who spent several years at Stanford University's Rock Center for Corporate Governance, a collaboration between the Graduate School of Business and Stanford Law School. While there, he worked with a former Securities and Exchange Commissioner and managed research into federal securities litigation and global corruption. Kamal is certified in Fraud Examination, Cybersecurity, and Decentralized Finance. Kamal spent two years conducting individual research on Bitcoin and blockchain technology before entering a position in cryptocurrencies. He is a civil rights officer; the founder of the blockchain consulting company, CageChain Media Group; served as an advisor to several blockchain projects; and sat on the Board of the North Hollywood based AltMarket Cryptocurrency Exchange. Mr. Hubbard had the privilege of testifying before California's Senate Banking Committee on the basics of blockchain and Bitcoin. Kamal also served as part of the Blockchain Advocacy Coalition in support of California bills AB 2658 and SB 838, which provided a definition of "blockchain" under California state law and allowed businesses to transfer equity using distributed ledgers. Kamal has also participated in discussions with the US Department of the Treasury's Office of the Comptroller of the Currency on matters related to the intersection of cryptocurrencies and banking.
Rezensionen
"Thanks to its wide scope, the collection of papers is guaranteed to appeal to beginners in the field of ancient sexuality as well as to specialists, who will find many details which are new to them. The Companion should also prove useful in teaching courses on issues of ancient sex and sexuality, since it assembles up-to-date, authoritative, well-written treatments of key aspects by noted experts. Its particular value lies in the diversity of the evidence presented and the breadth of the questions asked of the sources." (Bryn Mawr Classical Review, September 2014)
