Understanding the role of language within the formation of a sense of self has been revolutionised by developments in social theory, particularly poststructuralism. There is now a new emphasis on the way in which subjects are vulnerable in the face of powerful discourses such as nation, gender, race and sexuality. This book is a clear and engaging introduction to these developments and their relevance to students of language. Using lively and often personal examples throughout, Tim McNamara explores the role of language within processes of subjectivity using the insights of conversation analysis (CA), creating an original conceptual and methodological bridge between the macro- and micro-dimensions of social discourse and everyday conversational interaction.

Climate Change and Ocean Governance brings together authors from political science and cognate disciplines to examine the political and policy dimensions of climate change for our oceans. The environmental, social and economic consequences of oceanic change present tremendous challenges for governments and other actors. New and innovative policies for governing oceans and seas - and for managing vital marine resources - have never been more important. Existing national and international institutions for marine governance that were created when oceanic conditions were relatively static may not be adequate for a future characterized by continuous oceanic change. Responses to oceanic change will result in winners and losers, and thus will involve politics in all its manifestations. This book reveals the unavoidable connections between climate change, the oceans, and questions of governance. It provides valuable lessons for researchers, policymakers and activists concerned about governing

‧Bootstrap及Vue.js熱門前端技術一手掌握 ‧Firebase資料庫功能與Web應用程式的Authentication一次到位 ‧沒有Node.js套件管理及Vue-CLI模組一樣搞定SPA 現今前端工程師所必備的能力，已經不是個別學會HTML、CSS與JavaScript而已，除了要對不同尺寸的載具設計出RWD頁面外，更需要學會運用不同框架的整合，才能讓專案得心應手並展現前端工程師的價值。 目前普遍運用Bootstrap的CSS框架來呈現版面並達成RWD，而Vue.js則是近年來三大JavaScript框架中的後起之秀。本書將以Vue.js框架為主體搭配Bootstrap做為UI的呈現，並讓讀者具有駕馭前端框架的實力。 以往資料的儲存需要搭配後端資料庫，在後端即服務(Backend as a Service; BaaS)逐漸普及使用後，前端工程師已可以直接在前述框架中使用Firebase，取代原本後端資料庫建置。本書針對如何使用Firebase資料庫提供詳細的說明，同時說明使用Firebase建置出像是手機簡訊的認證機制。
