  Illicit digital activity is a substantial and growing problem. Extremists' use of social media over the past decade or so has raised increasing concern among governments and media corporations alike. In Digital Grooming Nuria Lorenzo-Dus analyzes manipulation practices in digital spaces that are situated at, or beyond, the boundaries of law. Lorenzo-Dus identifies and examines in detail the online discourse of adults luring children for sexual abuse and exploitation (digital sexual grooming); extreme ideology groups aligning others to their views (digital ideological grooming); and drug dealers soliciting business in crypto markets (digital commercial grooming). With sophisticated style and stance analyses of large and varied datasets, the book reveals that digital sexual, ideological, and commercial grooming practices have much in common. Three stances—expertise, openness, and avidity—scaffold this manipulative work, which constructs groomers and their targets as sharing a homogenous identity. 
   
   
   
  By shedding new light on grooming practices, this book provides a key resource for discourse analysis, forensic linguistics, communication, and media studies, as well as for practitioners aiming to counter online grooming through policy changes, detection software, and prevention-focused training to promote digital civility and safety.

  "We broke our new series on learning French down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series.  This audiobook is divided into units. While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise French. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to.  
  In Unit 1 you will hear French decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native French speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand French. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in French at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken French, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences.  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

  The Science of Confident Public...

  The fear of public speaking is a common experience, affecting individuals across diverse professions and backgrounds. This book recognizes that fear and provides a comprehensive approach to understanding and overcoming it. It bridges the gap between the neuroscience of anxiety and the practical application of techniques for building confidence and delivering effective presentations.  
  We'll explore the neurological underpinnings of public speaking anxiety, examining the role of the amygdala, the brain’s fear center, and how our cognitive processes contribute to the amplification of anxiety.  
  You'll learn how cognitive distortions and negative self-talk can perpetuate a cycle of fear, and we'll equip you with strategies to challenge and reframe these unhelpful thought patterns.  
  But this book is not just about understanding the problem; it’s about finding solutions. We will delve into the remarkable power of neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to rewire itself, and demonstrate how consistent practice and positive reinforcement can transform your response to public speaking.  
  We'll introduce you to a range of techniques, including mindfulness, visualization, breathwork, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), all designed to help you manage stress, cultivate self-compassion, and build unwavering self-efficacy.  
  Furthermore, this book will guide you through the mechanics of effective communication, covering everything from crafting compelling narratives and mastering vocal delivery to employing powerful body language and engaging your audience.  
  Throughout the book, you'll find practical exercises, real-world examples, and case studies to help you integrate these techniques into your daily life and build lasting confidence.  
  Prepare to embark on a transformative journey, one that will not only improve your public speaking abilities but also empower you to become a more confident, clear, and charismatic communicator in all aspects of your life.
