In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, banks are not only financial institutions but also technology-driven enterprises. As banking operations migrate to digital platforms, cyber threats targeting financial institutions have become more sophisticated and relentless. The consequences of cyberattacks—ranging from financial loss to reputational damage—can be catastrophic, making cybersecurity and technology risk management fundamental pillars of modern banking.The financial sector is one of the most highly regulated industries globally, and for good reason, it holds the trust of billions of individuals and businesses. However, with increased digitization— through mobile banking, cloud computing, open banking application programming interfaces (APIs), and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven services—comes an expanded attack surface. Incidents such as ransomware attacks, data breaches, and sophisticated fraud schemes have demonstrated that a proactive approach to cybersecurity is not just optional—it is imperative.This 2-book collection is designed to provide banking professionals, technology leaders, and cybersecurity practitioners with comprehensive insights into building robust cybersecurity frameworks and managing technology risks effectively. This book, Technology, AI, and Operational Security in Banking: Mastering Cybersecurity and Tech Risk Management explores the latest technologies driving cybersecurity, including artificial intelligence (AI), Zero Trust security models, and digital transformation risks, along with practical incident response strategies.

This comprehensive review of the relationship between sport and crime explains how the experience of sport can lead to behaviour thatÂ’s harmful to others and is sometimes self-destructive. It challenges the conventional idea of sport as wholesome and beneficial, arguing that sport is often a trigger for crime, in both history and contemporary life.The book explores how murder, violence, bribery, sexual assault, matchfixing, corporate corruption, crowd disorder, hate crimes, drug offences, alcohol-induced transgressions and cyber-crimes are often caused or accelerated by sport, and it speculates on sports-related crimes of the future. The bookÂ’s narrative is driven by hundreds of case studies, and each chapter has summary points. There are also eight descriptive timelines that enable the reader to see at a glance how sport has, over the decades and centuries, been a catalyst for crime.This is an essential text for any course on sport and crime and invaluable reading for anybody with an interest in the sociology of sport, sport history, sports law, sport management, sport development, criminology or cultural studies. Anyone seriously interested in the study of sport will be gripped.

Sport is a cultural institution that stands at the interface between political and civil society. In divided communities, sport has been an agent of separation, sectarian hatred and violence, but also a highly effective tool for conflict resolution, reconciliation and peace-building.In this important study, John Sugden and Alan Tomlinson draw on their extensive international experience of working with divided communities to develop a methodological and theoretical model for peace-building in sport. The book showcases original case studies from three regions of the world in which sport has played a prominent role in social deconstruction and reconstruction: Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine and South Africa. Combining a wealth of primary and secondary data, the authors chart the rise of the contemporary Sport for Development and Peace movement (SDP) and outline an important new practice-based framework for understanding, researching and working to achieve positive social change in the SDP sector. This is essential reading for any student, researcher or practitioner with an interest in the sociology of sport, sport development, international development, peace studies or conflict resolution.

Technology and consumerism are two characteristic phenomena in the history medicine and healthcare, yet the connections between them are rarely explored by scholars. In this edited volume, the authors address this disconnect, noting the ways in which a variety of technologies have shaped patientsÂ’ roles as consumers since the early twentieth century. Chapters examine key issues, such as the changing nature of patient information and choice, patientsÂ’ assessment of risk and reward, and matters of patient role and of patient demand as they relate to new and changing technologies. They simultaneously investigate how differences in access to care and in outcomes across various patient groups have been influenced by the advent of new technologies and consumer-based approaches to health. The volume spans the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, spotlights an array of medical technologies and health products, and draws on examples from across the United States and United Kingdom.

When the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded on January 28, 1986, millions of Americans became bound together in a single, historic moment. Many still vividly remember exactly where they were and what they were doing when they heard about the tragedy. Diane Vaughan recreates the steps leading up to that fateful decision, contradicting conventional interpretations to prove that what occurred at NASA was not skullduggery or misconduct but a disastrous mistake. Why did NASA managers, who not only had all the information prior to the launch but also were warned against it, decide to proceed? In retelling how the decision unfolded through the eyes of the managers and the engineers, Vaughan uncovers an incremental descent into poor judgment, supported by a culture of high-risk technology. She reveals how and why NASA insiders, when repeatedly faced with evidence that something was wrong, normalized the deviance so that it became acceptable to them. In a new preface, Vaughan reveals the ramifications for this book and for her when a similar decision-making process brought down NASA's Space Shuttle Columbia in 2003.

Updated resource guiding readers through the analysis and choices required to ensure a building will perform as expected Robin Barry’s Construction of Buildings was first published in 1958 as a five-volume set and rapidly became a standard work on the subject. Following Barry’s death in 2002, a two-volume format was adopted with new authors. Developed from an earlier book by Tony Bryan, this new third volume, Barry’s Construction Technology, extends the coverage to show how decisions about the design, production, maintenance and disposal of buildings may be thought through given the materials and technology available. The book challenges the reader to think about the consequences of making choices and decisions rather than relying on using what has been used before. Barry’s Construction Technology: Analysis and Choice includes information on: The climate emergency and the low carbon agenda as a fundamental part of construction technology analysis and choiceRegenerative design, net zero buildings, and the circular economy for the built environmentConstraints that location, legislation, codes and standards, sustainability, insurance, and commercial pressures apply to the performance of buildingsSpecific construction technology examples, with emphasis on questioning what we do and why, with the aim of informing and stimulating the reader to ask questions ...
