Field Guide to Birds of Western Africa

2nd Edition

By: Nik Borrow

A major revision of the first comprehensive field guide to cover the birds of this exciting region, this book will enable birders to identify any species found in any of the countries covered. Birds of Western Africa (Helm, 2001) was the first single-volume guide to cover all the species of this region, which comprises 23 countries from Senegal and southern Mauritania east to Chad and the Central African Republic, and south to Congo. This updated edition uses all of the illustrations from Birds of Western Africa, along with a number of new paintings. The book also has updated colour distribution maps for each species placed on the text pages for the first time. On facing pages, concise, authoritative text aids identification to create a conveniently-sized, lightweight field reference covering all 1300 species found in the region. This handy guide will enable birders to identify any species found in any of the countries covered.

Practical Cisco Unified Communications Security

By: Brett Hall,Nik Smith

Master the foundations of modern Cisco Unified Communications (UC) system security This guide helps you build foundational knowledge for securing modern Cisco Unified Communications environments that support voice, video, messaging, and meetings, and support different types of real-time collaboration capabilities based on mobile/remote access and mobile devices based on bring-your-own-device (BYOD) initiatives. Writing for administrators and managers, two Cisco collaboration experts bring together methods and insights to illuminate both the “why” and the “how” of effective collaboration security. Using the proven “Explain, Demonstrate, and Verify” methodology, they explain each threat, demonstrate remediation, and show how to confirm correct implementation. You'll walk through securing each attack surface in a logical progression, across each Cisco UC application domain. The authors address key updates to Cisco collaboration architecture, including Expressway, Cisco Meeting Server, encryption enhancements, and advanced business-to-business collaboration. You'll find quick-reference checklists in each chapter, and links to more detail wherever needed. Begin by protecting your workforce through basic physical security and life/safety techniques Understand how attackers seek to compromise your UC system's network environment—and your best countermeasures Maintain security across all UC deployment types n Protect core UC applications by locking down and hardening the core operating system Use encryption to protect media and signaling, and enforce secure authentication Secure Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco Unity Connection, and Cisco Meeting Server Deploy Session Border Controllers to provide security controls for VoIP and video traffic Provide additional protection at the edge of the network Safeguard cloud-based and hybrid-cloud services Enable organizations to seamlessly and securely connect to cloud UC services Allow remote teleworker users to connect safely to local UC resources

Coming of Age

A Decade of Essays 2001-2011

By: Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad

Writer and politician Nik Nazmi has always been vocal in articulating his vision for a better Malaysia. This compilation of over 40 essays written between 2001 and 2011 covers a variety of topics ranging from politics and economics to law and religion, and parallels his involvement in the politics of Malaysia. It provides a unique window into not only the author’s coming of age but also of Malaysia’s Reformasi movement, and is his clarion call for justice and freedom. “I do not in any way claim to be the exemplar of my generation – but if young Malaysians are to one day take on the mantle of leadership, if we are to move Malaysia forward, then we must stand up and articulate our vision for it.”

Lipschitz Algebras

By: Nik Weaver

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Lipschitz Algebras

By: Nik Weaver

The Lipschitz algebras Lip(M), for M a complete metric space, are quite analogous to the spaces C(Ω) and L∞(X), for Ω a compact Hausdorff space and X a σ-finite measure space. Although the Lipschitz algebras have not been studied as thoroughly as these better-known cousins, it is becoming increasingly clear that they play a fundamental role in functional analysis, and are also useful in many applications, especially in the direction of metric geometry. This book gives a comprehensive treatment of (what is currently known about) the beautiful theory of these algebras.

Bullets and Silver

By: Nik James

Fans of William Johnstone will find a new favorite with author Nik James. In this gritty and action-packed historical western, temporary lawman Caleb Marlowe must face his worst enemy by fighting his own kin. Get ready for: Sworn Enemies Family Drama A Corrupt Powerbroker The Law of the Old West Colorado, July 1878. The nationally famous solar eclipse is almost upon the country and a peak overlooking the fledgling town of Elkhorn is one of the centers of attention. In the midst of boisterous and chaotic frontier pre-celebrations, Caleb Marlowe—reluctantly deputized for the coming event—learns that local power broker Judge Horace Patterson is targeted for assassination by agents of a financial magnate. Caleb's efforts to thwart the plan, however, are complicated when a ghost from his past shows up with the intention of blackmailing him. Elijah Starr, acting for a railroad robber baron, will use any ruthless method at his disposal to clear the way to control a planned rail line to be built through Elkhorn. Caleb is commissioned to bring Starr in to face justice after the assassination attempt, but he has his own burning agenda. Starr is his own father, the man who abused and murdered Caleb's mother. Caleb swears his mother's death will be avenged and justice will prevail...or he'll die trying.
