Book Synopsis Enterprise Risk Management in a Nutshell by : Dennis Cox
Download or read book Enterprise Risk Management in a Nutshell written by Dennis Cox and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk management is an often-used phrase that is rarely fully embedded within the business process and procedures of firms. This book looks at the challenges faced in implementing a risk management framework as well as the key elements of such a framework. It is designed for the business professional that is not an expert in risk management and addresses all of the major risks that are likely to be faced in practice, considering the risk mitigation and measurement techniques that are most likely to be relevant. This is an intermediate book and accordingly does not focus on the mathematical elements but rather provides a readable entry text for anyone seeking information on this important subject.
Download or read book Kuby Immunology written by Jenni Punt and published by Macmillan Higher Education. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 2997 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Janis Kuby’s groundbreaking introduction to immunology was the first textbook for the course actually written to be a textbook. Like no other text, it combined an experimental emphasis with extensive pedagogical features to help students grasp basic concepts. Now in a thoroughly updated new edition, Kuby Immunology remains the only undergraduate introduction to immunology written by teachers of the course. In the Kuby tradition, authors Jenni Punt, Sharon Stranford, Patricia Jones, and Judy Owen present the most current topics in an experimental context, conveying the excitement of scientific discovery, and highlight important advances, but do so with the focus on the big picture of the study of immune response, enhanced by unsurpassed pedagogical support for the first-time learner. Punt, Stranford, Jones, and Owen bring an enormous range of teaching and research experiences to the text, as well as a dedication to continue the experiment-based, pedagogical-driven approach of Janis Kuby. For this edition, they have worked chapter by chapter to streamline the coverage, to address topics that students have the most trouble grasping, and to continually remind students where the topic at hand fits in the study of immunology as a whole.
Book Synopsis Military Strategies for Sustainment of Nutrition and Immune Function in the Field by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Military Strategies for Sustainment of Nutrition and Immune Function in the Field written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-05-13 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every aspect of immune function and host defense is dependent upon a proper supply and balance of nutrients. Severe malnutrition can cause significant alteration in immune response, but even subclinical deficits may be associated with an impaired immune response, and an increased risk of infection. Infectious diseases have accounted for more off-duty days during major wars than combat wounds or nonbattle injuries. Combined stressors may reduce the normal ability of soldiers to resist pathogens, increase their susceptibility to biological warfare agents, and reduce the effectiveness of vaccines intended to protect them. There is also a concern with the inappropriate use of dietary supplements. This book, one of a series, examines the impact of various types of stressors and the role of specific dietary nutrients in maintaining immune function of military personnel in the field. It reviews the impact of compromised nutrition status on immune function; the interaction of health, exercise, and stress (both physical and psychological) in immune function; and the role of nutritional supplements and newer biotechnology methods reported to enhance immune function. The first part of the book contains the committee's workshop summary and evaluation of ongoing research by Army scientists on immune status in special forces troops, responses to the Army's questions, conclusions, and recommendations. The rest of the book contains papers contributed by workshop speakers, grouped under such broad topics as an introduction to what is known about immune function, the assessment of immune function, the effect of nutrition, and the relation between the many and varied stresses encountered by military personnel and their effect on health.

Book excerpt: A modeler’s guide to one of the most powerful tanks operating today: “Highly recommended.” —AMPS Indianapolis When the Leopard 2, a third-generation main battle tank, first entered service with the Bundeswehr in 1979, at the height of the Cold War, it was indisputably the most advanced and potent tank in the world. Over four decades it has undergone numerous upgrades and modifications to ensure it remains one of the most powerful tanks operating today. It currently serves with the armies of seventeen nations, from Canada to Turkey and many European states. The Leopard 2 is also a popular subject for modelers, which is why David Grummitt’s highly illustrated expert guide is so valuable. As well as describing in detail the Leopard 2’s design, development, and combat history, he gives a full account of the wide range of modeling kits and accessories available in all the popular scales. Included is a modeling gallery, which features six builds covering a range of Leopard 2s serving with different nations and a section of large-scale color profiles which provide both reference and inspiration for modelers and military enthusiasts alike.

Book Synopsis The Second Line of Defense by : Lynn Dumenil
Download or read book The Second Line of Defense written by Lynn Dumenil and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In tracing the rise of the modern idea of the American "new woman," Lynn Dumenil examines World War I's surprising impact on women and, in turn, women's impact on the war. Telling the stories of a diverse group of women, including African Americans, dissidents, pacifists, reformers, and industrial workers, Dumenil analyzes both the roadblocks and opportunities they faced. She richly explores the ways in which women helped the United States mobilize for the largest military endeavor in the nation's history. Dumenil shows how women activists staked their claim to loyal citizenship by framing their war work as homefront volunteers, overseas nurses, factory laborers, and support personnel as "the second line of defense." But in assessing the impact of these contributions on traditional gender roles, Dumenil finds that portrayals of these new modern women did not always match with real and enduring change. Extensively researched and drawing upon popular culture sources as well as archival material, The Second Line of Defense offers a comprehensive study of American women and war and frames them in the broader context of the social, cultural, and political history of the era.

Book Synopsis Creating a Virtual-First Line of defence for Secure Software Development by : Michael Bergman
Download or read book Creating a Virtual-First Line of defence for Secure Software Development written by Michael Bergman and published by Michael Bergman. This book was released on with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bottom line upfront 1. A step-by-step guide to building, measuring and improving a virtual first line of defence (FLD) for the software development process. 2. The virtual FLD automates a software security risk assessment to manage the security risks inherent in software development. 3. By enabling developers to self-assess each significant change and easing the bottleneck caused by security assessments. 4. Ensuring all changes are secure, compliant, authorised and auditable. Introduction Securing software delays its release and makes it harder for organisations to realise the maximum business benefit of developing software. This quick read book argues that the root cause of the delay lies deep-seated in strategic security risk policies and the traditional three lines of defence. The security risk policy mandates that all significant changes are security risk assessed and provide the “three lines of defence” to perform these assessments. Where the “three lines” are capable of performing these assessments, they cannot deal with the assessment workload generated by modern-day development methodologies. As a solution, this quick read book proposes virtualising the first line of defence (FLD). The virtual FLD semi-automates a software security risk assessment and integrates it into the development process, allowing development teams to assess their changes rather than waiting on the security risk team. Virtualisation and its resulting automation capabilities enable the organisation to effectively and efficiently manage the security risks inherent in software development. This book interprets a host of industry-standard literature from COBIT, NIST and ISO, applying it to software development in a three-phased, step-by-step approach to building, measuring and improving a virtual FLD. Format of the quick read book: This book is a quick read-only because its detailed step-by-step approach does not provide lengthy explanations of the COBIT, NIST and ISO industry literature used to build the virtual FLD solution. Rather, it assumes an understanding of the literature and explains how it was interpreted, and every decision made while applying it to the development process. I chose this format to best enable the reader to identify those bits that apply to your environment, those that don’t, those you agree with, those you don’t and most importantly, areas of improvement.
Book Synopsis CIA: Unravelling Mysteries of USA's First Line of Defence by : N. Chokkan
Download or read book CIA: Unravelling Mysteries of USA's First Line of Defence written by N. Chokkan and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2024-03-16 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a key component of the United States intelligence community, the CIA has played a pivotal yet often unseen role in some of the most significant geopolitical events of the 20th and 21st centuries. From infiltrating Nazi ranks during World War Il to attempts to undermine Fidel Castro’s regime during the Cold War, the Agency frequently operated with unclear boundaries between diplomatic and clandestine activities. Public perception of the CIA ranges from vilifying to sensationalistic, magnified by Hollywood portrayals. This book provides an inside look at the CIA’s evolution, scrutinizing both accomplishments and controversies. The events and evidence unfold through the lens of insiders and policy analysts. The assessment casts new light on the outsized role this agency has assumed in guiding geopolitics from the shadows. Both novices and scholars of security affairs will find ample information to make their own judgments on the necessity and ethical dilemmas inherent to intelligence work.
Book Synopsis In Defense of Elitism by : Joel Stein
Download or read book In Defense of Elitism written by Joel Stein and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Thurber finalist and former star Time columnist Joel Stein comes a "brilliant exploration" (Walter Isaacson) of America's political culture war and a hilarious call to arms for the elite. "I can think of no one more suited to defend elitism than Stein, a funny man with hands as delicate as a baby full of soft-boiled eggs." —Jimmy Kimmel, host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The night Donald Trump won the presidency, our author Joel Stein, Thurber Prize finalist and former staff writer for Time Magazine, instantly knew why. The main reason wasn't economic anxiety or racism. It was that he was anti-elitist. Hillary Clinton represented Wall Street, academics, policy papers, Davos, international treaties and the people who think they're better than you. People like Joel Stein. Trump represented something far more appealing, which was beating up people like Joel Stein. In a full-throated defense of academia, the mainstream press, medium-rare steak, and civility, Joel Stein fights against populism. He fears a new tribal elite is coming to replace him, one that will fend off expertise of all kinds and send the country hurtling backward to a time of wars, economic stagnation and the well-done steaks doused with ketchup that Trump eats. To find out how this shift happened and what can be done, Stein spends a week in Roberts County, Texas, which had the highest percentage of Trump voters in the country. He goes to the home of Trump-loving Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams; meets people who create fake news; and finds the new elitist organizations merging both right and left to fight the populists. All the while using the biggest words he knows.
