Writing for Peer Reviewed Journals : Strategies for getting published
It’s not easy getting published, but everyone has to do it.Writing for Peer Reviewed Journals presents an insider’s perspective on the secret business of academic publishing, making explicit many of the dilemmas and struggles faced by all writers, but rarely discussed.Its unique approach is theorised and practical. It offers a set of moves for writing a journal article that is structured and doable but also attends to the identity issues that manifest on the page and in the politics of academic life. The book comprehensively assists anyone concerned about getting published; whether they are early in their career or moving from a practice base into higher education, or more experienced but still feeling in need of further information.Avoiding a ‘tips and tricks’ approach, which tends to oversimplify what is at stake in getting published, the authors emphasise the production, nurture and sustainability of scholarship through writing – a focus on both the scholar and the text or what they call text work/identity work.The chapters are ordered to develop a systematic approach to the process, including such topics as: The writer The reader What’s the contribution? Beginning work Refining the argument Engaging with reviewers and editors Writing for Peer Reviewed Journals uses a wide range of multi-disciplinary examples from the writing workshops the authors have run in universities around the world: including the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, South Africa, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and the United States.This international approach coupled with theoretically grounded strategies to guide the authoring process ensure that people at all stages of their career are addressed.This lively book uses a combination of personal stories, student texts, published journal abstracts and excerpts from interviews with journal editors and publishers.Written in an accessible style, one which does not use the patronising ‘you’ of advice books, it offers a collegial approach to a task which is difficult for most scholars, regardless of their years of experience.

How does a peer-to-peer network work?
A peer-to-peer network is a decentralized network where each participant, or "peer," has the ability to act as both a client and a server. This means that each peer can both request and provide resources or services to other peers in the network. Peers can directly communicate and share resources with each other without the need for a central server. This type of network allows for more efficient and direct sharing of resources, as well as increased resilience and scalability.

What is peer pressure?
Peer pressure is the influence that individuals in a person's social circle can have on their behavior, attitudes, and decisions. It can come in the form of direct pressure to conform to certain behaviors or attitudes, or it can be more subtle, such as feeling the need to fit in with a particular group. Peer pressure can be both positive and negative, as it can encourage individuals to engage in healthy behaviors or it can lead them to make poor choices in order to be accepted by their peers.

The Hologram : Feminist, Peer-to-Peer Health for a Post-Pandemic Future
In an era when capitalism leaves so many to suffer and to die, with neoliberal 'self-care' offering little more than a bandaid, how can we take health and care back into our hands?In The Hologram, Cassie Thornton puts forward a bold vision for revolutionary care: a viral, peer-to-peer feminist health network. The premise is simple: three people - a 'triangle' - meet on a regular basis, digitally or in person, to focus on the physical, mental and social health of a fourth - the 'hologram'.The hologram, in turn, teaches their caregivers how to give and also receive care; each member of their triangle becomes a hologram for another, different triangle, and so the system expands. Drawing on radical models developed in the Greek solidarity clinics during a decade of crisis, and directly engaging with discussions around mutual aid and the coronavirus pandemic, The Hologram develops the skills and relationships we desperately need for the anti-capitalist struggles of the present, and the post-capitalist society of the future.One part art, one part activism, one part science fiction, this book offers the reader a guide to establishing a Hologram network as well as reflections on this cooperative work in progress.

Peer work in Australia
This book is a landmark on the journey of peer work in the mental health sector in Australia. It is the first of its kind in Australia: a co-produced book on peer work. It is arguably the first of its kind in the world.This book fulfils the need for a deeper understanding of peer work. The growth of the peer workforce, along with the development of new areas of engage­ment such as the National Disability Insurance Scheme and expansion of the evidence base supporting peer work, highlighted the need for documenting the progress, achievements and future outlook of peer work in the mental health sector in Australia.The publication of this book is both timely and courageous. Timely, because the mental health sector in Australia is currently engaged in the activities and stresses of mental healthcare reform. The growth and maturity of peer work is at a point where its further development and policy structures are intersecting with broader disability sector reforms, leading to new understandings and acknowledgement of the value of quality peer worker. Courageous, because it sets out to produce a quality and substantial book on peer work in Australia, without anything other than enthusiasm and commitment to fulfil a desperate need for such a resource. Also courageous is the reiteration of the fact that there is now good evidence that peer work is an effective and high-quality intervention, and that mental health services require new approaches, such as peer work, in order to deliver effective services.A coalition was formed between Janet Meagher, Mind Australia and Flourish Australia. (Mind Australia and Flourish Australia are leading specialist mental health service providers in Australia.) Both organisations were deeply committed to the production and bore production costs equally. The publication did not receive any external funding.The editorial working group included of representatives from both organisa­tions. It consisted of: Janet Meagher, Tim Fong (Flourish Australia), Fay Jackson (Flourish Australia), Erandathie Jayakody (Mind Australia) and Anthony Stratford (Mind Australia), and was supported by Kim Jones with admini­stra­tive assistance.A commitment to co-production of the book was established from the outset. This is reflected in the membership of the editorial working group and the contributing authors. (Three of the editorial working group members are peer workers, as are twenty-seven of the authors.)Key individuals and organisations were invited to write an original paper for the book. Authors are predominantly experts by experience. They have lived through and thrived (not just survived) in the experience of recovery from mental health challenges; they are recognised for using the insights and expertise from their personal expertise to inform their work and are known for doing so in paid professional roles. They have documented their work and experience in the paid lived experience workforce and research with eloquence, courage and professionalism.In addition to the contributing authors, approximately forty-five peers across Australia contributed to the book by participating in a workshop to discuss key issues and future directions on peer work. Their contribution is documented in the chapter ‘A force for change’, written by Leanne Craze and David Plant.Readers will also come to an understanding that the peer workforce is an ever-increasing and vital component of multifaceted teams across all levels of the mental health sector, from service delivery to policy making to funding of services. They will gain understanding of how lived experience and peer work staff bring about much-needed cultural change in services and workplaces.

What is the difference between mesh networks and peer-to-peer networks?
Mesh networks and peer-to-peer networks are both types of decentralized networks, but they have some key differences. In a mesh network, each node is connected to multiple other nodes, creating a redundant and resilient network. In a peer-to-peer network, each node has equal status and can act as both a client and a server, allowing for direct communication and file sharing between nodes. Mesh networks are more focused on creating a robust and reliable network infrastructure, while peer-to-peer networks are more focused on enabling direct communication and resource sharing between individual nodes.

What does file sharing through peer-to-peer networks look like in 2021?
In 2021, file sharing through peer-to-peer networks still involves users connecting directly to each other's devices to share files, but there are now more advanced and secure protocols in place. Many peer-to-peer networks now use encryption and decentralized technology to protect users' privacy and security. Additionally, there are now more diverse types of files being shared, including large media files, software, and documents.

Is it possible to perform peer-to-peer downloads with a VPN in 2020?
Yes, it is possible to perform peer-to-peer downloads with a VPN in 2020. A VPN can help protect your privacy and anonymity while engaging in peer-to-peer file sharing by masking your IP address and encrypting your internet connection. However, it is important to note that not all VPN providers allow or support peer-to-peer downloads, so it is essential to choose a VPN service that explicitly permits this activity. Additionally, users should always ensure they are not violating any copyright laws when engaging in peer-to-peer downloads, even when using a VPN.
