Engaged Journalism: Connecting with Digitally Empowered News Audiences (Columbia Journalism Review Books)
by Jake BatsellEngaged Journalism explores the changing relationship between news producers and audiences and the methods journalists can use to secure the attention of news consumers. Based on Jake Batsell's extensive experience and interaction with more than twenty innovative newsrooms, this book shows that, even as news organizations are losing their agenda-setting power, journalists can still thrive by connecting with audiences through online technology and personal interaction.Batsell conducts interviews with and observes more than two dozen traditional and startup newsrooms across the United States and the United Kingdom. Traveling to Seattle, London, New York City, and Kalamazoo, Michigan, among other locales, he attends newsroom meetings, combs through internal documents, and talks with loyal readers and online users to document the successes and failures of the industry's experiments with paywalls, subscriptions, nonprofit news, live events, and digital tools including social media, data-driven interactives, news games, and comment forums. He ultimately concludes that, for news providers to survive, they must constantly listen to, interact with, and fulfill the specific needs of their audiences, whose attention can no longer be taken for granted. Toward that end, Batsell proposes a set of best practices based on effective, sustainable journalistic engagement.

Engaños digitales, víctimas reales: Historias de estafas por internet y hackeos en la Argentina
by Sebastián DavidovskyA partir de nueve casos reales ocurridos en la Argentina, Sebastián Davidovsky, periodista especializado en tecnología, explica delitos como grooming, hackeo, phishing y ransomware. Cada caso sirve para conocer cómo operan los criminales, cómo funcionan las estafas y cómo estar prevenidos para evitarlas. Usamos mail, apps, WhatsApp, home banking, archivamos, compramos, subimos fotos. Y no percibimos que, del otro lado, alguien acecha todos nuestros datos y la intimidad. A partir de nueve casos argentinos, Sebastián Davidovsky explica cómo operan los criminales a través del grooming, phishing, ransomware y otros delitos a los que todos estamos expuestos. Dice María O'Donnell que "a los que nos acercamos a la tecnología con ingenuidad, pero agradecidos por las oportunidades que ofrece, este libro resulta tan ameno como inquietante. No abruma con datos ni pretende convertirnos al nerdismo, pero con hechos reales -que reconstruye con precisión- alerta sobre riesgos poco evidentes. Las historias iluminan sobre qué pasa cuando las cosas funcionan mal en una red a la que entregamos más información de lo prudente. Sebastián nos saca de la zona de comodidad, porque estamos acostumbrados a disfrutar de las soluciones, pero no nos ponemos a pensar en qué nos quitan". Para Tomás Balmaceda, "por su volumen e impacto, es posible que estos nuevos delitos estén a punto de tenernos como víctimas (si no es que ya nos pasó). Con olfato para las grandes historias, rigor investigativo y un ritmo que no descansa, en este libro hay casos de la Argentina que nos obligan a repensar nuestra conducta digital. Además de entretener y crear conciencia, Sebastián brinda consejos para evitar ser víctimas de estos nuevos criminales, que no usan máscaras ni llevan ganzúas, sino que se esconden detrás de un usuario y una pantalla".

Engineering Secure Two-Party Computation Protocols
by Thomas SchneiderSecure two-party computation, called secure function evaluation (SFE), enables two mutually mistrusting parties, the client and server, to evaluate an arbitrary function on their respective private inputs while revealing nothing but the result. Originally the technique was considered to be too inefficient for practical privacy-preserving applications, but in recent years rapid speed-up in computers and communication networks, algorithmic improvements, automatic generation, and optimizations have enabled their application in many scenarios. The author offers an extensive overview of the most practical and efficient modern techniques used in the design and implementation of secure computation and related protocols. After an introduction that sets secure computation in its larger context of other privacy-enhancing technologies such as secure channels and trusted computing, he covers the basics of practically efficient secure function evaluation, circuit optimizations and constructions, hardware-assisted garbled circuit protocols, and the modular design of efficient SFE protocols. The goal of the author's research is to use algorithm engineering methods to engineer efficient secure protocols, both as a generic tool and for solving practical applications, and he achieves an excellent balance between the theory and applicability. The book is essential for researchers, students and practitioners in the area of applied cryptography and information security who aim to construct practical cryptographic protocols for privacy-preserving real-world applications.

English Classics in Audiovisual Translation (Routledge Research in Audiovisual Translation)
by Irene Ranzato Luca VallerianiThis collection explores the translation of dialogue from the adaptations of literary classics across audiovisual media, engaging with the question of what makes a classic through an audiovisual translation lens. The volume seeks to fill a gap on the translation of classic texts in AVT research which has tended to focus on contemporary media.The book features well-known British literary texts but places a special emphasis on adaptations of the works of Jane Austen and William Shakespeare, figures whose afterlives have mirrored each other in the proliferation of film and television adaptations of their work. Chapters analyze myriad modes of AVT, including dubbing, subtitling, SDH, and voice-over, to demonstrate the unique ways in which these modes come together in adaptations of classics and raise questions about censorship, language ideologies, cultural references, translation strategies, humor, and language variation. In focusing on translations across geographic contexts, the book offers a richer picture of the linguistic, cultural, and ideological implications of translating literary classics for the screen and the enduring legacy of these works on a global scale.This book will be of interest to scholars in audiovisual translation, literary translation, comparative literature, film and television studies, and media studies.

English Is Not Easy: A Visual Guide to the Language
by Luci GutiérrezA cheeky, sophisticated, and strikingly illustrated guide that leaves generic English reference books in the dust When prominent Barcelona-based illustrator Luci Gutiérrez found herself tuning out in English class, she used her love of drawing to help retain what she’d learned. Ditching the kind of bland and useless phrases that fill most English textbooks, Gutiérrez uses whimsical characters, cheeky dialogue, and even insults to bring vocabulary, grammar, and usage topics to life. Nearly forty-seven million people in the United States speak a language other than English at home, and even most native speakers struggle with subtle distinctions, such as when to use “whether” as opposed to “if.” (For example: I wonder whether I should have added a little more poison to his tea.) Already published to wide acclaim abroad, English Is Not Easy is sure to delight grammar mavens and students of English in America.
