The Digital World of Sport
This book is about how new media, and in particular, digital and social media, has changed the world of sports forever. The way fans receive information, communicate and form communities now predominantly lives online. But perhaps even more significant is the evolution of the sports media industry, where digital media has impacted the broader media industry, stimulated new media organisations, changed old media organisations and altered old conventions of journalism in equal measure. Drawing on the expertise of academics, scholars, experts and professionals at the forefront of the sports, media, and journalism fields, the book suggests that new media has turned the sports industry on its head with profound implications – both exciting and disturbing.

Fabergé
A ce jour plus de 3000 livres ont été publiés sur Carl Fabergé, la plupart d'auteurs se contentant de répéter systématiquement les mêmes choses et de mentionner les mêmes légendes et histoires. La majorité de ces ouvrages se basent sur les informations fournies par Eugène Carlovich Fabergé dans les années 30 ou H.C. Bainbridge, le premier à avoir écrit une biographie sur Carl Fabergé en 1949. L'incapacité d'acquérir du matériel conséquent avait comme impact auprès des érudits qu'ils ne pouvaient pas vérifier leur travail. Des lettres écrites par le Tsar, des factures Fabergé, des documents du Cabinet ou des inventaires des Bolcheviks ont été cachés en Russie depu...

Beyond Our Control?
An examination of current and emerging issues in cyberlaw. This book provides a framework for thinking about the law and cyberspace, examining the extent to which the Internet is currently under control and the extent to which it can or should be controlled. It focuses in part on the proliferation of MP3 file sharing, a practice made possible by the development of a file format that enables users to store large audio files with near-CD sound quality on a computer. By 1998, software available for free on the Web enabled users to copy existing digital files from CDs. Later technologies such as Napster and Gnutella allowed users to exchange MP3 files in cyberspace without having to post anythin...

The Best Australian Business Writing 2012
Have Baby Boomers been forced back to work since the GFC? Why do we rely on the arbitrary and illusory numbers of double-entry book-keeping to direct our policies, institutions, economies and societies? Will pre-commitment cards for poker machines coerce the addicted gambler to think before he or she acts? Is airport security a waste of time and money? Not just a series of numbers and facts, good business writing is informative, provocative, funny, even moving. In this first edition of a new annual anthology showcasing the best of Australian business writing, editor Andrew Cornell shows just how good – and how important – writing about business can be. With a foreword by Reserve Bank board member Dr John Edwards, the anthology includes contributions by Gideon Haigh, Alan Kohler, Judith Brett, Saul Eslake, George Megalogenis and a host of other writers and commentators.
