Paperback. Condizione: Good. Looking at infrastructure in the context of project development, this book examines existing infrastructure -- how it was built and paid for -- to illuminate the tools being used to fund and finance these investments as well as the shape they are taking. Eight case studies that highlight the infrastructure for redevelopment efforts from across the country are featured. As American suburbs build in more compact ways -- with higher-density development clustered in nodes or along corridors, and with increasing options for getting around without a car -- reworking or rethinking infrastructure can be essential and this book fills that information gap.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. It was never part of Adam Hill's life ambition or his genetic constitution to wear a Speedo in public, let alone compete in a triathlon. For the first three decades of life, he was the poster child for non-athleticism, obsessively unhealthy habits, and an intense fear of.well.everything.Yet at the age of thirty-three, with a physique that could only be described as Sasquatch with a Dad Bod, he put aside his insecurities and took his first step toward an outrageous dream: to qualify for the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii. It was a dream shared by nearly every other triathlete in the world, reserved for the top 1 percent of all athletes in the sport-a sport in which Adam had exactly zero experience.In Shifting Gears, Adam shares his harrowing, inspiring, and sometimes-clumsy story of transformation, from the origins of a debilitating anxiety disorder to his battle with alcoholism to his rise to the top of the triathlon world stage.…

In this entertaining and thought-provoking novel, a thirty-something woman wakes up one day to discover her long-lost love has come back to life--but is this new reality truly the answer to her heart's desires? Despite her great life in New York City as a prestigious book editor, Meade Peterson can't shake the heartache of losing her high school sweetheart. Fifteen years after his death, she still thinks about all the things--love, family, happiness--she'll never have, now that Daniel's gone. That is, until a new man, Tanner, enters Meade's life and brings her the kind of joy she hasn't experienced in years. She's torn, though, over whether she can bear giving her heart away again. Taking time to reflect, Meade returns to her hometown of Austin for what should be a relaxing visit--but instead, she becomes the victim of a violent crime. Upon waking from her real-life Texas nightmare, Meade finds herself in another world where she doesn't recognize anything, until she realizes the man in bed beside her isn't a stranger--it's Daniel. Meade has awakened into an alternate existence where Daniel is very much alive and has been part of her life for the past fifteen years.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Brave Faces is Mary Arden's story as she moves from her privileged English upbringing to dealing with the realities of World War I. Mary's memoir gives an insight into the changes in society that took place with the advent of war. As the Second World War breaks out, Mary's parents are determined that their daughter's privileged upbringing should continue, and that life should carry on as much as normal. She is sent to finishing school and becomes a debutante attending 'coming out' balls in London, despite the nightly bombing raids. However, Mary is determined to do her bit for the war effort, and volunteers to serve as a Red Cross Nurse, before joining the WRNS. Accepted into the WRNS, not as an officer, but as 'other rank', Mary has to learn to live a very different kind of life to the one she was brought up to expect. She is used to being chaperoned, only talking to men she has been 'introduced' to, so it's an almost impossible task for her Senior WREN Officer to find a suitable category for this naive girl. Mary finally becomes part of a new elite category known as Night Vision Testers, training the young pilots to see in the dark so they can land their planes on the deck of their aircraft carrier and not in the sea. As the war progresses, Mary moves from one Naval Air station to another. Her tasks become stranger than fiction and her duties are definitely outside her job description - and most probably outside the rules too. An evocative memoir about one woman's life from privilege to service, heartbreak to laughter. …

She shook her head and did everything she could to avoid eye contact with me. I looked across the room at Sheila, searching for some validation of what Linda had said. All I could see was her slumped in her chair, sitting silently as Brian talked in her ear. As a young woman, Bernadette Boas was anything but a bitch. Raised by loving, Irish Catholic parents in a Philadelphia suburb in the 1960?s, she was the middle child of twelve--a sassy, precocious girl with big dreams of a big life. At the age of eighteen, Bernadette left home with the love and support of her family and headed South to Boca Raton, Florida, where she began to climb the corporate ladder. There, amidst palm trees and sandy beaches, the sun began to set on her once glowing personality. A driven, ambitious young woman, Bernadette began to emulate the negative, competitive attitudes of her coworkers--men and women--in her quest for success. She gained a reputation for being aggressive, demanding, and brash. Through hard work and perseverance, she attained tremendous success and achievement through managerial and executive positions, but it came with a price. Eventually, she lost her six-figure corporate job and her bitch persona. "Shedding the Corporate Bitch" is one woman?s real-life admission of what it?s like to sell one?s soul in exchange for ambition, greed and power at home and in the workplace. Its one woman?s apology to all the people she hurt over the years in pursuit of those goals. But most importantly, it?s her lessons, tips, and advice for aspiring corporate women who erroneously believe that ?manning up? and becoming a bitch in order to achieve career success that is valuable. …

Hardback. Condizione: Good. Shortlisted, 2024 Stephan Russo Book Prize for Social JusticeA Ms. Magazine Most Anticipated BookAn original argument that the answer to mass incarceration lies not with experts and pundits, but with ordinary people taking extraordinary actions together?written by a leading authority on bail reform and social movementsFrom reading books on mass incarceration, one might conclude that the way out of our overly punitive, racially disparate criminal system is to put things in the hands of experts, technocrats able to think their way out of the problem. But, as Jocelyn Simonson points out in her groundbreaking new book, the problems posed by the American carceral state are not just technical puzzles; they present profound moral questions for our time. Radical Acts of Justice tells the stories of ordinary people joining together in collective acts of resistance: paying bail for a stranger, using social media to let the public know what everyday courtroom proceedings are like, making a video about someone?s life for a criminal court judge, presenting a budget proposal to the city council. When people join together to contest received ideas of justice and safety, they challenge the ideas that prosecutions and prisons make us safer; that public officials charged with maintaining ?law and order? are carrying out the will of the people; and that justice requires putting people in cages. Through collective action, these groups live out new and more radical ideas of what justice can look like. In a book that will be essential reading for those who believe our current systems of policing, criminal law, and prisons are untenable, Jocelyn Simonson shows how to shift power away from the elite actors at the front of the courtroom and toward the swelling collective in the back.…

As we are bombarded almost daily with the latest news on the presidential candidates or the newest political scandal, we lose focus on the important, far-reaching platforms that we as Christians should be whole-heartedly a part of. Pastor Jackson believes that churches hold the answer to this loss of focus and addresses it at length in The Truth in Black and White. Breaking down the walls of partisanship and stereotypes to uncover the poisonous roots, Jackson stands up for Christian justice and Godly righteousness coming from the church and into the public square. Above that, he issues a call back to truth as the impetus for arresting the downward spiral of culture, including politics, and correcting the course for the benefit of all Americans.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. How do we prepare students for a world that's changing so rapidly that a majority of those sitting in classrooms today will go on to hold jobs that don't yet exist, using technologies that haven't yet been invented to solve problems we don't even know are problems yet? For Vicki Vinton, the answer is to help build students' capacities as critical and creative thinkers by shifting to a problem-based approach for teaching reading. Problem-based teaching has taken hold in STEM classes across the country, but it's not common in reading, where we tend to think of problems as existing only at the word level. Dynamic Teaching for Deeper Reading, however, will help you become more aware of the problems texts pose for readers at the literal, inferential, and thematic levels, and then show you how to create opportunities for students to read closely and think deeply as they wrestle with those problems. Additionally, you'll learn how to: - Develop a repertoire of dynamic teaching moves that will help you probe student thinking and provide responsive feedback when students most need it. - Shift your focus from the teaching of complex texts to complex thinking. - Help students develop lines of inquiry as readers. Chock-full of classroom examples and the voices of students figuring things out, Dynamic Teaching for Deeper Reading connects the practices in the book to all sorts of current thinking and trends-from growth mindsets to the Common Core State Standards and from productive struggle to educational neuroscience. That breadth and depth ensures that Vicki's book is one that educators will be talking about-and you don't want to miss.…

But after her parents divorced, leaving her a lonely only child ferrying between two worlds that only seemed to grow further apart, Rebecca was no longer sure what she represented. In this book, Rebecca Leventhal Walker attempts to define herself as a soul instead of a symbolmdash;and offers a new look at the challenge of personal identity, in a story at once strikingly unique and truly universal.…
