This is a tale of pursuit through the kitchens of New York City at the turn of the century. By the late nineteenth century, it seemed that New York City had put an end to the outbreaks of typhoid fever that had so frequently decimated the city's population. That is until 1904, when the disease broke out in a household in Oyster Bay, Long Island. Authorities suspected the family cook, Mary Mallon, of being a carrier. But before she could be tested, the woman, soon to be known as Typhoid Mary, had disappeared.

In The 15-Minute City: A Solution to Saving Our Time and Our Planet, Carlos Moreno delivers an exciting and insightful discussion of the deceptively simple and revolutionary idea that everyday destinations like schools, stores, and offices should only be a short walk or bike ride away from home. This book tells the story of an idea that spread from city to city, describing a new way of looking at living that addresses many of the most intractable challenges of our time.

Die CityFarm Augsburg ist gewachsen! Benjamin Vogt und seine Frau Ildikó haben ihren Traum wahrgemacht. Der ehrenamtlich betriebene, gemeinnützige Mini- Bauernhof steht nach dem Kraftakt des Umzugs vor neuen Herausforderungen. Wie bekommt man eine Subsistenzwirtschaft mitten in der Stadt hin? Warum muss an Silvester eine Wächtergemeinschaft die Schafe beschützen? Wie versorgt man die tierischen Mitbewohner ohne Strom- und Wasseranschluss? Mal humorvoll, mal kritisch, aber immer unterhaltsam führt Benjamin Vogt durch die turbulenten Geschehnisse auf der CityFarm.

Die Geschichte der Cityfarm Augsburg beginnt 2011 mit einer Idee. Benjamin Vogt und seine Frau Ildikó träumen von einem Rückzugsort mitten in der Stadt, einem Leben abseits von Mainstream und Kommerz und davon, als Selbstversorger im Einklang mit der Natur zu leben. Doch bis zum offiziellen Gründungstag der Cityfarm 2012 und auch danach sind die beiden vor viele Herausforderungen gestellt. Wie macht man ein ungeschütztes Grundstück einbruchsicher? Wie fängt man einen Bienenschwarm ein? Welche Tiere eignen sich für die Haltung in der Stadt?

Whether modest or monumental, they offer a living history of Britain, symbols of the forces that have shaped our modern landscape and icons in their own right.

Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? In Inclusive Transportation, expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering.

Brook Muller offers an alternative: water-centric urban design that fosters sustainability, equity, and architectural creativity.

Rabies enjoys a fearsome and lurid reputation. Throughout the decades of spiraling growth that defined New York City from the 1840s to the 1910s, the bone-chilling cry of "Mad dog!" possessed the power to upend the ordinary routines and rhythms of urban life. In Mad Dogs and Other New Yorkers, Jessica Wang examines the history of this rare but dreaded affliction during a time of rapid urbanization.

Imagine a workplace where workers enjoyed a well-paid job for life, one where they could start their day with a pint of stout and a smoke, and enjoy free meals in silver service canteens and restaurants. During their breaks they could explore acres of parkland planted with hundreds of trees and thousands of shrubs. This is no fantasy or utopian vision of work but a description of the working conditions enjoyed by employees at the Guinness brewery established at Park Royal in West London in the mid-1930s.

Wenn einem mal wieder alles über den Kopf wächst. Garten könnte so schön sein. Doch statt die Ruhe im Grünen zu genießen, muss der kleine Gartenversager zusehen, wie Spanische Wegschnecken, Drüsiges Springkraut, Chinesische Stinkwanzen und Kanadische Goldrute seine Kleingartenparzelle erobern und ihm die Ernte streitig machen. Tapfer sagt er Monsterpflanzen und Mistviechern den Kampf an, doch die unliebsamen Besucher denken gar nicht daran, das Feld zu räumen.
