Matthew David – författare
- Häftad, Svenska, 2016Samhällsvetenskaplig metod ger en bred introduktion till teori, logik och praktiska metoder för kvalitativ och kvantitativ forskning samt för forskning med blandade metoder. Boken täcker alla centrala aspekter av forskningsdesign, datainsamling, dataanalys och rapportering. Den blir därmed en grundläggande handbok för studenter på både grundnivå och högre nivåer som går metodkurser eller deltar i samhällsvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt. I del I ligger fokus på den inledande fasen i samhällsvetenskaplig forskning. Det handlar här främst om hur man kommer i gång med forskning och utvecklar forskningsfrågor. I del II behandlas olika strategier för datainsamling som brukar användas av samhällsforskare. Både kvalitativa och kvantitativa ansatser tas upp.I del III går författarna konkret igenom olika kvalitativa och kvantitativatekniker för dataanalys.I del IV diskuteras hur forskning kan presenteras för olika publiker såväl skriftligt som muntligt.Samhällsvetenskaplig metod har ett genomarbetat pedagogiskt upplägg. Kapitlen inleds med en presentation av kunskapsmål och avslutas med instuderingsfrågor och tips på vidare läsning. Boken innehåller en rad faktarutor med praktiska exempel och fördjupning samt skärmdumpar som illustrerar användningen av mjukvaran för dataanalys. En ordlista på över 300 termer kompletterar materialet.

Have the music and movie industries lost the battle to criminalize downloading? This penetrating and informative book provides readers with the perfect systematic critical guide to the file-sharing phenomenon. Combining inter-disciplinary resources from sociology, history, media and communication studies and cultural studies, David unpacks the economics, psychology and philosophy of file-sharing. The book carefully situates the reader in a field of relevant approaches including network society theory, post-structuralism and ethnographic research. It uses this to launch into a fascinating enquiry into: the rise of file-sharing the challenge to intellectual property law posed by new technologies of communication the social psychology of cyber crime the response of the mass media and multi-national corporations.Matthew David concludes with a balanced, eye-opening assessment of alternative cultural modes of participation and their relationship to cultural capitalism.
This is a landmark work in the sociology of popular culture and cultural criminology. It fuses a deep knowledge of the music industry and the new technologies of mass communication with a powerful perspective on how multinational corporations seek to monopolize markets, how international and state agencies defend property, while a global multitude undermine and/or reinvent both.

In 2007, Apple released the iPhone. With this release came tools as revolutionary as the internet was to businesses and individuals back in the mid- and late-nineties: Apps. Much like websites drove (and still drive) business, so too do apps drive sales, efficiencies and communication between people. But also like web design and development, in its early years and iterations, guidelines and best practices for apps are few and far between.
Designing Apps for Success provides web/app designers and developers with consistent app design practices that result in timely, appropriate, and efficiently capable apps. This book covers application lifecycle management that designers and developers use when creating apps for themselves or the entities that hired them. From the early discussions with a company as to how to what kind of app they want, to storyboarding, to developing cross platform, to troubleshooting, to publishing, Designing Apps for Success gives a taut, concise, and pragmatic roadmap from the beginning of the process all the way to the end. Developers and designers will learn not only best practices on how to design an app but how to streamline the process while not losing any quality on the end result. Other topics in this book include:
Case studies that best showcase the development process at work (or not at work).
Global examples of apps developed all over the world.
Future proofing your apps
Post-publishing: Promoting and marketing your apps and keeping it relevant.
Consistent app design practices for consistently successful results. - E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2014

This second edition of a major textbook uses lively prose and a series of carefully-crafted pedagogical features to both introduce sociology as a discipline and to help students realize how deeply sociological issues impact on their own lives. Over the book''s 12 chapters, students discover what sociology is, alongside its historical development and emergent new concerns. They will be led through the theories that underpin the discipline and familiarized with what it takes to undertake good sociological research. Ultimately students will be led and inspired to develop their own sociological imagination – learning to question their own assumptions about the society, the culture and the world around them today.Historically, the majority of introductory sociology textbooks have run to many hundreds of pages, discouraging students from further reading. By contrast, Discovering Sociology has been carefully designed and developed as a true introduction, covering the key ideas and topics that first year undergraduate students need to engage with without sacrificing intellectual rigour.New to this Edition:- Two new chapters adding coverage on crime, deviance and political sociology- Updated examples, Vox Pops and case studies keep this new edition feeling fresh and contemporary and ensure diverse coverage, including from beyond Western sociology- Thoughtfully updated and refreshed layout and visual features.Accompanying online resources for this title can be found at bloomsburyonlineresources.com/discovering-sociology-2e. These resources are designed to support teaching and learning when using this textbook and are available at no extra cost. - Häftad, Engelska, 2021

Formally, ownership of ideas is legally impossible, and can never be globally secured. Yet, in very real and significant ways these limits have been undone. In principle, ideas cannot be owned, yet, undoing the distinction between ideas and tangible manifestations, the distinction which underpins the principle, allows the principle to hold even whilst its meaning is hollowed out.
Post-Cold War global network capitalism is premised upon regulatory structures designed to enforce deregulation in global markets and production, but at the same time to enforce global regulation of property and intellectual property in particular. However, this roll-out has not been without resistance and limitations. Globalization, the affordances of digital networks, and contradiction within capitalism itself - between private property and free markets - promote and undo global IP expansion.
In this book David and Halbert map the rise of global IP protectionism, debunk the key justifications given for IPRs, dismiss the arguments put forward for global extension and harmonization; and suggest that roll-back, suspension, and even simply the bi-passing of IP in practice offer better solutions for promoting innovation and meeting human needs.
