Various parties are increasingly interested in col- lecting information about users and their activities in many facets of life. Some wish to provide cus- tomized services and applications to better meet the needs of end-users. Others argue that the col- lected information helps them to improve security. Yet often the means by which such information is collected does not give much consideration to the privacy of individuals.

Features 7 A single, comprehensive text suitable for teach- ing courses on privacy 7 Interdisciplinary in scope, touching on such areas as cloud computing, social networking, law, healthcare, smart grids, and big data 7 Examines in detail cutting-edge technologies, discusses current challenges, and presents illuminating perspectives on privacy

Contents Fundamental Concepts of Privacy.- Web Privacy.- Location Privacy.- Economics of Privacy.- Pri- vacy in Healthcare.- Information Utility and Privacy.- Privacy in Cloud Computing.- Privacy in Databases.- Privacy in Social Networks.- Pri- vacy in Electronic Communications.- Usability of Privacy Features.- Privacy: Law and Ethics.- Pri- vacy in Smart Grid.- Privacy in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks.- Privacy in Peer-to-Peer Networks.- Privacy Design and Model.- Privacy Tools.- Case Studies of Privacy Features.- Case Studies of Privacy Technologies.

T. Sharpe, Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow, Montserrat (Ed) Building Integrated Renewable Energy Technical and Aesthetic Performance of Renewable Energy Systems on Buildings

Building Integrated Renewable Energy examines the current state of the art for building integrated renewable systems. It provides an overview of current and emerging technologies and provides a series of sections discussing specific technologies on buildings and the nature of both technical and visual integration; and provides a series of case studies of effective systems. Building Integrated Renewable Energy contextualises the debates around renewable energy systems on buildings, identifying different perspectives in relation to ar- chitectural design. It discusses current approaches and examines, through case studies, examples of successful technical and visual integration.

Features 7 Includes illustrated case studies of both new- build and existing buildings 7 Examines the current state of the art concerning the technical and aesthetic integration of renewable energy technologies on buildings 7 Gives the reader an understanding of how renewable energy systems can be integrated on to buildings in ways that deliver both technical and visual performance

J. Zajda, Australian Catholic University, Fitzroy, VIC, Australia (Ed) Second International Handbook on Globalisation, Education and Policy Research

This handbook presents a global overview of de- velopments in education and policy change during the last decade. It provides an accessible, practical and comparative source of current research that examines the intersecting and diverse discourses of this important issue. Divided into two parts, the handbook first examines globalisation and education policy reforms, including coverage of main trends as well as specific policy issues such as gender, equity, minorities and human rights. Next, the handbook offers a comparative perspective that evaluates the ambivalent and problematic relationship between globalisation, the state and education reforms globally. It features coverage on curricula issues and education reforms in schools around the world as well as the curriculum in the global culture.

Features 7 Examines central discourses surrounding the debate of globalisation, education and policy reforms 7 Illustrates the nexus between globali- sation, the state and education 7 Demonstrates ideological imperatives of globalisation and educa- tion reforms 7 Evaluates the ambivalent and problematic relationship between globalisation, the state and education reforms globally

Writing is a complex undertaking especially when the topic is contemporary Chinese art and the search for ways to spiritually enrich attitudes toward life in the present. Jizi’s dedication and de- termination over many decades of painting makes a book such as this possible. With the help of his experiences, writings and conversations, we have assembled here a comprehensive volume of essays, commentaries and reflections. Jizi’s images on the theme of the unification of self, nature, others and a larger universe are sources for stimulation, guid- ance and enlightenment that each reader is invited to examine and appreciate.

Features 7 A case study in the contemporary practice of Chinese ink painting 7 Resolves not only the history of aesthetics issues but also the concern about authentic art criticism 7 Presents a unique perspective on thinking about and understanding ink painting issues
