Transportation Systems Security - Allan Mcdougall - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Highlighting the importance of transportation to a country’s infrastructure and survival, Transportation Systems Security presents the strategic and practical considerations involved in the implementation of physical, procedural, and managerial safeguards required to keep all modes of transportation up and running during an actual or potential disaster. Structured in an easy cognitive fashion, the book begins with a basic introduction providing terms and definitions. It describes both physical and information system layouts and defines who controls what parts of the process, how far control is extended, and who oversees controls within the system. Building on this foundation, subsequent chapters discuss problems such as the need for a more defined “domain-based” approach when threats, assets, vulnerabilities, and safeguards are not under local control. The book describes and refines the concepts of criticality, impact , and consequence as they relate to the assignation of value for personnel, assets, facilities, information and activities in terms of how they might support performance. By comparing continuity of operations planning (COOP) to business continuity planning (BCP), the book presents security measures as a value-added benefit rather than a hindrance to business and introduces the notion of certification, accreditation, and licensure. It demonstrates safeguards that layer outward from the entity and across the system with the ability to prevent, detect, and notify, as well as respond to and recover from a crisis. Emphasizing the sharing of information and methods, the book encourages security to become an integrated component within the system, not just imposed on top of it. It takes a holistic approach to the transportation infrastructure, introducing the concept of fragility and the measurable factors involved, and including a 20 page questionnaire to help managers determine their company’s fragility in terms of transportation security.

In Conversation with Cinematographers - David A. Ellis - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Although cinematographers are vital to the filmmaking process, they don’t always get the recognition they deserve. Directors of cinematography often are responsible for the look of a film and its lasting impression on the viewer, but their skills are not as readily appreciated as those of directors or screenwriters. David A. Ellis had the privilege of meeting with a number of accomplished cinematographers to discuss their art and craft. In Conversation with Cinematographers features interviews with 21 directors of photography--as well as two notable camera operators--most of whom still work in film and television today. In this volume, readers are taken behind the scenes of some of the most successful films and shows of the last several decades. Interviewed in this book are:• Sue Gibson (Hear My Song, The Forsyte Saga)• Gavin Finney (Colditz, Mr Selfridge, Wolf Hall)• Oliver Stapleton (The Cider House Rules, State and Main, The Proposal) • Phil Meheux (The Fourth Protocol, Casino Royale)• Brian Tufano (Trainspotting, Billy Elliot, The Evacuees)• Clive Tickner (Traffik, The Puppet Masters, Inspector Morse)• Stephen Goldblatt (The Prince of Tides, Angels in America, The Help)• Seamus McGarvey (High Fidelity, Atonement, The Hours)• Peter MacDonald (Excalibur, Hamburger Hill, Rambo 3)• Mike Southon (Gothic, Doctor Who: The Hider in the House)• Rob Hardy (Every Secret Thing, Testament of Youth, Ex Machina)• Harvey Harrison (101 Dalmatians, The Expendables, Sahara)• Mike Valentine (Shakespeare in Love, Skyfall, The Bourne Ultimatum)• Robin Browne (Gandhi, A Passage to India, Air America)• Adam Suschitzky (Life on Mars, The Whisperers)• Ken Westbury (Dr. Fischer of Geneva, The Singing Detective)• Simon Kossoff (Young Charlie Chaplin, Client 9,The Daisy Chain)• Chris Seager (Call the Midwife, Game of Thrones)• David Worley (Quantum of Solace, Thor: The Dark World, The Full Monty)• Trevor Coop (Amadeus, Ballykissangel, Chocolat)• Haris Zambarloukos (Mama Mia, Cinderella, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit)• Peter Hannan (The Gathering Storm, My House in Umbria, The Razor’s Edge)• Roger Pratt (Shadowlands, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Batman)These cinematographers recount their experiences on sets and reveal what it was like to work with some of the most acclaimed directors of recent times, including Danny Boyle, Francis Ford Coppola, Clint Eastwood, Lasse Hallstrom, David Lynch and Steven Spielberg.
