We give you knowledge information relevant to the exam specifications. To be able to succeed in the real exams, you'll need to apply your earned knowledge to the question scenarios. Many of the exam questions are written to be less straight forward. They tend to be framed within the context of short scenarios. The exams are not too difficult. However, coverage is very comprehensive - a wide range of topics are presented in the official topic list. The exams do not ask you to answer hundreds of questions. In other words, only a small fraction of the official topics will be presented. To succeed in the exams, you need to read as many reference books as possible. There is no single book that can cover everything! This ExamFOCUS book focuses on the more difficult topics that will likely make a difference in exam results. The book is NOT intended to guide you through every single official topic. You should therefore use this book together with other reference books for the best possible preparation outcome. You should also download the evaluation copy of Server 2012 and play with it. ISO image file and burn a DVD disc out of it, then perform installation accordingly. Although there is a VHD version available, we do not recommend that you use it for testing. There are some complicated steps involved which may not always go as smooth. If you use the current version of Virtual Box (which is 4. 1. 22 as of the time of this writing) to run Server 2012, be sure to choose "Windows 8 (64bit)" as the choice of OS.

Meaning in the Media
by Alan DurantMeaning in the Media addresses the issue of how we should respond to competing claims about meaning put forward in confrontations between people or organisations in highly charged circumstances such as bitter public controversies and expensive legal disputes. Alan Durant draws attention to the pervasiveness and significance of such meaning-related disputes in the media, investigating how their 'meaning' dimension is best described and explained. Through his analysis of deception, distortion, bias, false advertising, offensiveness and other kinds of communicative behaviour that trigger interpretive disputes, Durant shows that we can understand both meaning and media better if we focus in new ways on moments in discourse when the apparently continuous flow of understanding and agreement breaks down. This lively and contemporary volume will be invaluable to students and teachers of linguistics, media studies, journalism and law.
