There is a distinct lack of theoretical innovation in the cybersecurity industry. This is not to say that innovation is lacking, as new technologies, services, and solutions (as well as buzzwords) are emerging every day. This book will be the first cybersecurity text aimed at encouraging abstract and intellectual exploration of cybersecurity from the philosophical and speculative perspective. Technological innovation is certainly necessary, as it furthers the purveying of goods and services for cybersecurity producers in addition to securing the attack surface of cybersecurity consumers where able. The issue is that the industry, sector, and even academia are largely technologically focused. There is not enough work done to further the trade—the craft of cybersecurity. This book frames the cause of this and other issues, and what can be done about them. Potential methods and directions are outlined regarding how the industry can evolve to embrace theoretical cybersecurity innovation as it pertains to the art, as much as to the science. To do this, a taxonomy of the cybersecurity body of work is laid out to identify how the influences of the industry’s past and present constrain future innovation. Then, cost-benefit analysis and right-sizing of cybersecurity roles and responsibilities—as well as defensible experimentation concepts—are presented as the foundation for moving beyond some of those constraining factors that limit theoretical cybersecurity innovation. Lastly, examples and case studies demonstrate future-oriented topics for cybersecurity theorization such as game theory, infinite-minded methodologies, and strategic cybersecurity implementations. What you’ll learn The current state of the cybersecurity sector and how it constrains theoretical innovation How to understand attacker and defender cost benefit The detect, prevent, and accept paradigmHow to build your own cybersecurity boxSupporting cybersecurity innovation through defensible experimentationHow to implement strategic cybersecurityInfinite vs finite game play in cybersecurity Who This Book Is For This book is for both practitioners of cybersecurity and those who are required to, or choose to, employ such services, technology, or capabilities.
Global Politics: Applying Theory to a Complex World

Global Politics: Applying Theory to a Complex World

The world is becoming an ever-smaller place through globalization, finance and economics, technology, media, and the many global issues that transcend borders. In this text, authors Mark Boyer, Natalie Hudson, and Michael Butler have developed an approach to the subject that incorporates historical context where necessary in the discussion of global issues, while also integrating the mainstream theoretical approaches within every chapter to provide students with a rich and meaningful way to understand and critically analyze what is happening in the world today. This approach helps students to go beyond the abstract and challenging presentation of concepts, theories, actors, and events that exists in most undergraduate-level global politics texts, to using the findings from this field in applied and practical ways.

Popular styles of electronic dance music are pervasively mediated by technology, not only within production but also in performance. The most familiar performance format in this style, the DJ set, is created with turntables, headphones, twelve-inch vinyl records, and a mixing board. Going beyond simply playing other people's records, DJs select, combine, and manipulate different parts of records to form new compositions that differ substantially from their source materials. In recent years, the "laptop set" has become equally common; in this type of performance, musicians use computers and specialized software to transform and reconfigure their own precomposed sounds. Both types of performance are largely improvised, evolving in response to the demands of a particular situation through interaction with a dancing audience. Within performance, musicians make numerous spontaneous decisions about variables such as which sounds they will play, when they will play them, and how they will be combined with other sounds. Yet the elements that constitute these improvisations are also fixed in certain fundamental ways: performances are fashioned from patterns or tracks recorded beforehand, and in the case of DJ sets, these elements are also physical objects (vinyl records). In Playing with Something that Runs, author Mark J. Butler explores these improvised performances, revealing the ways in which musicians utilize seemingly invariable prerecorded elements to create dynamic, real-time improvisations. Based on extensive interviews with musicians in their studios, as well as in-depth studies of particular mediums of performance, including both DJ and laptop sets, Butler explores the ways in which technologies, both material and musical, are used in performance and improvisation in order to make these transformations possible. An illuminating look at the world of popular electronic-music performance, Playing with Something that Runs is an indispensable resource for electronic dance musicians and fans as well as scholars and students of popular music.

Unlocking the Groove is a groundbreaking, award-winning, music-driven analysis of electronic dance music (EDM). Author Mark Butler interweaves traditional and non-traditional musical analysis with consideration of the genre’s history and social significance, deconstructing several typical examples of electronic dance music and focusing on the interaction of beat and rhythmic structure in creating an overall musical design. Interviews with DJs, listeners, and producers flesh out the book, providing insight into the perceptions and performance world of EDM, and making a vivid case for the musical artistry of EDM disc jockeys. The CD included with the book illustrates the analysis with multiple musical examples, both in excerpts and full songs. Butler’s work propels the study of popular music in exciting new directions, and will impact the range from popular music studies, music theory, ethnomusicology, and musicology.

His adaptation is paramount, or he is likely to fall into the black hole of depression.Human spirit and humor can overcome evil, even when all looks lost."'You can lie in the mud and cry or get up and fight boy. This is a choice only you can make, inside you is the strength to be whatever and whover you choose to be...' So says Rickie Battler, taken from his parents, and separated from his brothers at a tender age to be raised in a loveless children's home. It is a story of courage, endurance and determination: the true story of a child who fought back and won A must read..." - Gary Crew, Professor Emeritus and Author "This book has optimism and wit despite the gloomy situation of its characters. There's this pearler, 'Did we get up to mischief? Every chance we got. Did we get caught? Not enough for us to stop trying...' And 'Besides, 'dobbing in' someone would only make any kid a pariah, a sure path to a painful existence. Violence was an unseen undertone that permeated all our daily lives.'" - Donna Munro, Author

"Love and Reading" discusses 18th and 19th Century English fiction, the aesthetics of Burke and Kant, and contemporary literary theory. It stresses that language should be referential and argues for a way of reading that would not provide narcissistic gratification: a way of reading that would enable us instead to see through -the huge and terrible deception, - as Tolstoy put it, that hides -both life and death.-"

With urgency and tenderness, he guides Israel into this new world of opportunity and calls them to: Remember the ways they had seen God provide and prepare a way for them. Remember the ways God had made them into a nation, a family, and a people to reflect His heart to one another and the world. Remember how God gave them His Word, that they might know His character, stand firm in His promises, and proclaim His name to the nations. Remember that God works to redeem, restore, and transform hearts so His people might follow His ways, do His will, and worship Him alone.
