    IRON CROSSED When you are a war-hardened 20-year-old on operations with the elite Brandenburger Commandos, you know that less than one in two come back and your only victory is survival. You lose your virginity, gain three Iron Crosses and nearly lose your manhood. But you survive. Iron Crossed is a true story of sacrifice, heroism, loss and love. Martin is twice decorated for bravery on his first mission. As the war turns against the Germans, he has to combat partisans in the blood-freezing desolation of the Russian front. When his war ends, another challenge arises as he and his pregnant wife Marlene have to make a daring escape to the West from Russianoccupied Germany. In a war-devastated Germany, a new life beckons in an unknown land half a world away where Martin helps build Australia's massive Snowy Mountains hydro-electric scheme from the ground up. Marlene and Martin together face the tough migrant experience of hardship and poverty with resilience and humour: a typical story of Australian migrants in the 1950s. Iron Crossed is based on extensive tape-recorded interviews of Martin and Marlene by the first author, their daughter. You can hear excerpts from these recordings at: http: //philjohnrose.net/Iron_Crossed/index.html

    Beyond its elucidation and critique of traditional ';notation-centric' musicology, this books primary emphasis is on the negotiation and construction of meaning within the extended musical multimedia works of the classic British group Pink Floyd. Encompassing the concept albums that the group released from 1973 to 1983, during Roger Waters' final period with the band, chapters are devoted to Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977), The Wall (1979) and The Final Cut (1983), along with Waters' third solo album Amused to Death (1993). This books analysis of album covers, lyrics, music and film makes use of techniques of literary and film criticism, while employing the combined lenses of musical hermeneutics and discourse analysis, so as to illustrate how sonic and musical information contribute to listeners' interpretations of the discerning messages of these monumental musical artifacts. Ultimately, it demonstrates how their words, sounds, and images work together in order to communicate one fundamental concern, whichto paraphrase the music journalist Karl Dallasis to affirm human values against everything in life that should conspire against them.

    A voice is much more than just a string of words. Voices, unlike fingerprints, are inherently complex. They signal a great deal of information in addition to the intended message: speakers' sex, for example, or their emotional state, or age. It is these features that contribute to the interest and importance of Forensic Speaker Identification.
