Re-imagining the Research Process : Conventional and Alternative Metaphors
This book offers a unique solution to the shortage of more imaginative and engaging research by re-imagining the core elements of the research process. In contrast to existing methods, which mainly focus on standard ingredients in the research process, the metaphorical approach taken here offers a more varied and comprehensive platform for producing novel, influential and relevant research.The set of guiding principles suggested in the book provides researchers with the resources to break away from existing conventions and templates for conducting and writing research. Re-imagining the Research Process: Conventional and Alternative Metaphors is suitable for upper-undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers interested in challenging traditional views of the research process. Mats Alvesson holds a chair in the Business Administration department at Lund University in Sweden and is also a part-time professor at University of Queensland Business School, Australia and at Cass Business School, UK. Jorgen Sandberg is Professor at UQ Business School, University of Queensland, Australia, and Distinguished Research Environment Professor in Organization Studies at the Warwick Business School, UK.

In 1984, Derek Reilly was just another teenage nerd growing up in middle England.But his love of D&D caused him to fall afoul of the Laundry, a government agency tasked with suppressing supernatural threats.It turns out that sometimes ninth level wizard spells drawn on the back of your maths textbook can look suspiciously like actual magic... Decades later, Derek is a long-term inmate at Camp Sunshine, a centre for deprogramming captured cultists.But Derek finally has reason to escape, and an escape plan to out into action: he wants to attend his first gaming convention.While Derek's D&D games were fictional, a game at the con really is a dread ritual designed to summon a great evil into our world, and it's up to Derek and his players to stop them. The fate of the world may depend on the contents of Derek's dice bag. The Laundry Files series follows an agency of British spies who deal with supernatural threats; they also have to deal with chronic underfunding, government ministers, rival agencies and worst of all, each other.Think Slow Horses crossed with the monsters from Stranger Things, this series is funny, nerdy, and a cult classic. ***Publishing just ahead of the final Laundry Files novel (The Regicide Report, summer 2025), this new collection includes the never before published Laundry Files novel A Conventional Boy - inspired by the 1980s Satanic Panic - and two other short stories in this joyous celebration of all things Laundry Files.***In this collection:*A CONVENTIONAL BOY (53.3k words)*DOWN ON THE FARM (12.7k words)*OVERTIME (8.7k words)also includes exclusive afterword from Charles Stross

What is conventional agriculture?
Conventional agriculture refers to the traditional method of farming that relies heavily on synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides to maximize crop yields. It often involves monoculture, where a single crop is grown on a large scale, and mechanized farming practices. While conventional agriculture has helped increase food production to meet the demands of a growing population, it has also been criticized for its negative impacts on the environment, such as soil degradation, water pollution, and loss of biodiversity.
-
What are conventional foods?
Conventional foods refer to the typical or traditional foods that are commonly consumed in a particular culture or region. These foods are often produced using conventional agricultural methods, which may include the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemical inputs. Conventional foods are generally widely available and are the most common type of food found in grocery stores and markets. However, there is a growing interest in organic and sustainable alternatives to conventional foods due to concerns about the environmental and health impacts of conventional agricultural practices.

Quantitative Longitudinal Data Analysis : Research Methods
First published Open Access under a Creative Commons license as What is Quantitative Longitudinal Data Analysis?, this title is now also available as part of the Bloomsbury Research Methods series. Across the social sciences, there is widespread agreement that quantitative longitudinal research designs offer analysts powerful scientific data resources.But, to date, many texts on analysing longitudinal social analysis surveys have been written from a statistical, rather than a social science data analysis perspective and they lack adequate coverage of common practical challenges associated with social science data analyses. This book provides a practical and up-to-date introduction to influential approaches to quantitative longitudinal data analysis in the social sciences.The book introduces definitions and terms, explains the relative attractions of such a longitudinal design, and offers an introduction to the main techniques of analysis, explaining their requirements, statistical properties and their substantive contribution.

Data Analysis in Qualitative Research : Theorizing with Abductive Analysis
From two experts in the field comes an accessible, how-to guide that will help researchers think more productively about the relation between theory and data at every stage of their work. In Data Analysis in Qualitative Research, Iddo Tavory and Stefan Timmermans provide a how-to guide filled with tricks of the trade for researchers who hope to take excellent qualitative data and transform it into powerful scholarship.In their previous book, Abductive Analysis: Theorizing Qualitative Research, Timmermans and Tavory offered a toolkit for innovative theorizing in the social sciences.In this companion, they go one step further to show how to uncover the surprising revelations that lie waiting in qualitative data—in sociology and beyond. In this book, they lay out a series of tools designed to help both novice and expert scholars see and understand their data in surprising ways.Timmermans and Tavory show researchers how to “stack the deck” of qualitative research in favor of locating surprising findings that may lead to theoretical breakthroughs, whether by engaging with theory, discussing research strategies, or walking the reader through the process of coding data.From beginning to end of a research project, Data Analysis in Qualitative Research helps social scientists pinpoint the most promising paths to take in their approach.

Teaching Cybersecurity : A Handbook for Teaching the Cybersecurity Body of Knowledge in a Conventional Classroom
Let’s be realistic here. Ordinary K-12 educators don’t know what "cybersecurity" is and could probably care less about incorporating it into their lesson plans.Yet, teaching cybersecurity is a critical national priority.So, this book aims to cut through the usual roadblocks of confusing technical jargon and industry stovepipes and give you, the classroom teacher, a unified understanding of what must be taught.That advice is based on a single authoritative definition of the field.In 2017, the three societies that write the standards for computing, software engineering, and information systems came together to define a single model of the field of cybersecurity.It is based on eight building blocks. That definition is presented here. However, we also understand that secondary school teachers are not experts in arcane subjects like software, component, human, or societal security.Therefore, this book explains cybersecurity through a simple story rather than diving into execution details.Tom, a high school teacher, and Lucy, a middle school teacher, are tasked by their district to develop a cybersecurity course for students in their respective schools.They are aided in this by "the Doc," an odd fellow but an expert in the field.Together they work their way through the content of each topic area, helping each other to understand what the student at each level in the educational process has to learn.The explanations are simple, easy to understand, and geared toward the teaching aspect rather than the actual performance of cybersecurity work.Each chapter is a self-contained explanation of the cybersecurity content in that area geared to teaching both middle and high school audiences.The eight component areas are standalone in that they can be taught separately.But the real value lies in the comprehensive but easy-to-understand picture that the reader will get of a complicated field.

Is conventional sunscreen toxic to cats?
Yes, conventional sunscreen can be toxic to cats. This is because many sunscreens contain ingredients like zinc oxide, which can be harmful if ingested by cats. Cats are known to groom themselves, so if they come into contact with sunscreen and ingest it while grooming, it can lead to toxicity. It is important to use pet-safe sunscreens or keep cats away from areas where conventional sunscreen has been applied.

To what extent is language conventional?
Language is largely conventional in that it relies on agreed-upon rules and structures for communication. The meanings of words and the grammar of a language are determined by the conventions of the community that uses it. However, there is also a degree of flexibility and creativity in language use, as speakers can create new words, phrases, and meanings within the framework of the conventions. Therefore, while language is largely conventional, it also allows for individual expression and innovation.
