On any given day, millions of people will read e-books. Yet many of us will do so while holding them apart from 'real books'. The fact that a book can be worthy - of our time, money, respect, even love - without being 'real' is a fascinating paradox of twenty-first century reading. Drawing on original data from a longitudinal study, Laura Dietz investigates how movement between conceptions of e-books as ersatz, digital proxy, and incomplete books serves readers in unexpected ways. The cultural value of e-books remains an area of intense debate in publishing studies. Exploring the legitimacy of e-books in terms of their 'realness' and 'bookness', Dietz enriches our understanding of what e-books are, while also opening up new ways of thinking about how we imagine, how we use, and what we want from books of every kind. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

More than 100,000 organizations throughout the European Union have to comply with the NIS2 Directive. Is your organization one of them? If so, what do you need to do to become compliant? Two questions that are easy to ask, but the answers are never as straightforward. With 46 articles, 144 provisions, and over 140 references to other documents, the NIS2 is anything but easy to read, let alone interpret. This book provides an answer to your questions in a straightforward, easy-to-understand way. The NIS2 Navigator's Handbook is written in plain English terms to help members of management bodies (including security and IT management) understand the Directive and its intentions. An extensive analysis of the scope specifications, with a clear Annex to support it, provides insight into the NIS2's scope and an answer to the first question.For the second question, the book walks you through the different requirements that organizations must comply with. A GAP assessment included in the Annexes of the book, that can be used at a high level or in depth, provides you with an understanding of your level of compliance and the steps you need to take to become compliant. The book also comes with access to an assessment tool that allows you to perform the assessment in a number of languages.If you need to understand the impact of the NIS2 Directive on your organization, this book provides you the ultimate answer.

This thoroughly updated edition reports on the current state of human computer interaction (HCI) in biomedicine and healthcare, focusing on the cognitive underpinnings of human interactions with people and technology. With health information technologies becoming increasingly vital tools for the practice of clinical medicine, this book draws from key theories, models and evaluation frameworks, and their application in biomedical contexts to apply this to current research in HCI. However, numerous challenges remain in order to fully realize their potential as instruments for advancing clinical care and enhancing patient safety.There is a general consensus that health IT has not realized its potential as a tool to facilitate clinical decision-making, the coordination of care and improvements in patient safety.

Explores translation as a means of self-expression and social networking in transnational settings on YouTube.

The development of the internet, particularly the World Wide Web, is currently hitting its limits-both technically and socio-culturally, as well as economically. A new internet is promised as a solution, one that aims to overcome the boundaries between the real and the virtual world, merging reality and digitality-the metaverse. Technical, semantic, and organizational details are closely intertwined in this context.But what does this mean upon closer examination? What technical and technological challenges must be overcome to achieve such a merging? What economic opportunities arise-and which ones may be precluded? How can we ensure that an open and universally accessible metaverse is created? And how can we prevent a few large providers from imposing their proprietary ideas in this new metaverse? This book aims to provide answers to these questions.The AuthorDr. Peter Hoffmann, on one hand a professor of business informatics and on the other a passionate Media Computer Scientist, has been exploring for over 20 years the questions of what "digital media" and "virtual worlds" actually are and how users can interact with them.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence.

This book provides an interdisciplinary analysis of the sharenting phenomena, while discussing the various stakeholders involved, e.g., the portrayed children and adolescents, (grand)parents and other family members. Sharenting, i.e. parents' disclosure of personal information related to their children on social media, is increasingly the subject of public debate. Moreover, some parents participate in influencer sharenting, where they generate revenue by featuring their children in professionalised and commercialised social media content, often in collaboration with brands. However, while sharing personal information of children has become common practice, concerns arise regarding its risks. Consequently, sharenting has been studied in several disciplines, including communication studies, psychology, marketing, criminology, law, sociology, and health sciences. This interdisciplinary approach, adopted by this book, generates several suggestions for future research, alongside practical implications for parents and policy makers. Michel Walrave is Full Professor at the Department of Communication Studies of the University of Antwerp, Belgium, and head of the research group MIOS. His research is centred on online self-disclosure and privacy. One of the topics of his research examines (grand)sharenting motives and consequences,  as well as how children and adolescents are impacted by and respond to these sharing practices.   Liselot Hudders is Associate Professor in marketing communication and ethics at Ghent University, department of Communication Sciences and director of the Center for Persuasive Communication, Belgium.

Her research is dedicated to the desired and adverse effects of social media on children and young adults.Emma Beuckels is working on a FWO (research foundation Flanders) postdoctoral fellowship at the department of Communication Sciences, Ghent University, Belgium. Her research centers on the interactions of children and parents with digital media, with a specific emphasis on influencer content and its impact on their daily decision-making processes.

This book makes a novel contribution to the literature by examining the intersection of social media, conflict and peacebuilding. It challenges traditional state-centric and Eurocentric approaches to international relations and peace and conflict studies by examining the role of social media in peacebuilding beyond a simplistic tech-solutionist versus tech-skeptical duality. The book explains why the impact of social media on peacebuilding is complex and depends on the political context and strategies of the actors involved in it. It uses an interdisciplinary lens to explore the potential and limitations of social media in peacebuilding, thereby contributing to a theoretical and empirical understanding of the role of digital technology in shaping conflict and promoting peace.Chapter “Fighting Hate Speech on Social Media: The Challenge of “Deep Work” in Digital Peacebuilding” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution BY 4.0 International license via link.springer.com.Anna Reuss is Lecturer and Researcher at the Chair of International Politics and Conflict Studies, University of the Bundeswehr Munich.
