The first comprehensive study of the music of Frederick Delius
(1862-1934), from his earliest pieces up to his final compositions,
with background information and a complete list of works. There are
many biographies and articles about Frederick Delius's life
(1862-1934), but there has never been a comprehensive book about
his music until now. Everything he wrote, from his earliest
compositions right up to his finalworks, is analysed here; the
history and background of each work and its critical reception are
all examined, set against events in Delius's life and the wider
musical world. The book contains numerous music examples and
quotations from many contemporary newspapers and journals. A
complete list of all of Delius's works, with catalogue numbers, and
a select bibliography are also provided. MARTIN LEE-BROWNE is the
Chairman of The Delius Society, a former Chairman of the Gloucester
Three Choirs Festival, and author of The Life & Times of
Frederic Austin (1996). PAUL GUINERY is a pianist and associate of
the Royal College of Music, as well as a former broadcaster for BBC
Radio 3 and co-author (with Lyndon Jenkins) of Delius and Fenby, A
Photographic Journey (The Delius Society, 2004).
Hardbound. Travel behaviour research has a pivotal role to play in
informing the current worldwide debate over the degree to which the
growth in personal travel, notably by private motor vehicle, should
be encouraged or controlled. At stake are complex public interests
concerning air quality, energy, lifestyle, economic development and
the built environment.This international collection of papers on
current methodological and substantive findings from the analysis
of personal travel is written by leading travel behaviour
researchers from the social and engineering sciences. It is
organised in four sections: traveller activity and perception;
Stated Preference methods; dynamic behaviour; and improvement of
behavioural travel models.
This book is a new chapter in a continuing international
collaboration on transportation survey methods. It identifies new
challenges to the world community of transport survey specialists
as well as the larger constituency of practitioners, planners, and
decision-makers that it serves and provides potential solutions and
recommendations for addressing them. The book is structured around
an introduction and five overlapping themes of major contemporary
importance to the development of data collection on both passenger
travel and freight movements which are: Sustainability and User
Adaptation; Global Social Issues; Freight and Transit Planning;
Technology applications; and, Emerging/Persistent Survey Issues,
including Data Harmonization".

This book has arisen out of a need for a text which tackles the
special issues relating to coaching children (from 6 - 16) in
sport. Academics (many with coaching experience) and practitioners
have been commissioned to write on their specialist areas.

CYBER THREAT INTELLIGENCE "Martin takes a thorough and focused
approach to the processes that rule threat intelligence, but he
doesn't just cover gathering, processing and distributing
intelligence. He explains why you should care who is trying to hack
you, and what you can do about it when you know." —Simon Edwards,
Security Testing Expert, CEO SE Labs Ltd., Chair AMTSO Effective
introduction to cyber threat intelligence, supplemented with
detailed case studies and after action reports of intelligence on
real attacks Cyber Threat Intelligence introduces the history,
terminology, and techniques to be applied within cyber security,
offering an overview of the current state of cyberattacks and
stimulating readers to consider their own issues from a threat
intelligence point of view. The author takes a systematic,
system-agnostic, and holistic view to generating, collecting, and
applying threat intelligence. The text covers the threat
environment, malicious attacks, collecting, generating, and
applying intelligence and attribution, as well as legal and ethical
considerations. It ensures readers know what to look out for when
considering a potential cyber attack and imparts how to prevent
attacks early on, explaining how threat actors can exploit a
system's vulnerabilities. It also includes analysis of large scale
attacks such as WannaCry, NotPetya, Solar Winds, VPNFilter, and the
Target breach, looking at the real intelligence that was available
before and after the attack. Topics covered in Cyber Threat
Intelligence include: The constant change of the threat environment
as capabilities, intent, opportunities, and defenses change and
evolve Different business models of threat actors, and how these
dictate the choice of victims and the nature of their attacks
Planning and executing a threat intelligence programme to improve
an organistation’s cyber security posture Techniques for
attributing attacks and holding perpetrators to account for their
actions Cyber Threat Intelligence describes the intelligence
techniques and models used in cyber threat intelligence. It
provides a survey of ideas, views and concepts, rather than
offering a hands-on practical guide. It is intended for anyone who
wishes to learn more about the domain, particularly if they wish to
develop a career in intelligence, and as a reference for those
already working in the area.

Children participate in sport at all levels, from school
involvement to international competitions. With the growing concern
about the mental and physical pressures which can be exerted on a
child, the coach's traditional role is developing and expanding.
They now need to be aware of the ways problems like depression,
anxiety and sports injuries occur and how they can be prevented.
This book has been written to fill the gap which exists between the
theory and practice of coaching children. Academics (many with
coaching experience) and practitioners have been commissioned to
write on their specialist areas. The book contains clear,
accessible information divided up into five parts: children in the
world of sport; developmental changes in children; psychological
aspects of participation; applications to the coaching process; and
good practice in coaching. Within these parts, the theory behind
the need for good communication, counselling, training, dealing
with injuries and nutrition is given, along with examples of how to
put these ideas into practice. This book should be of interest to
sports coaches and undergraduates on physical education, sports
studies and sports science courses
