  At the intersection of technological innovation and urban human experience lies a revolutionary transformation of how we conceive, design, and inhabit our living spaces. Smart Cities represent more than a technological trend—they are a fundamental reimagining of urban environments where digital intelligence, interconnected systems, and human-centric design converge to create more responsive, efficient, and adaptive urban landscapes. This comprehensive exploration delves into the complex world of technological integration in urban systems, examining how digital networks, advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and collaborative platforms are reshaping the very fabric of city life. 
  The narrative of smart cities is a dynamic journey of technological potential and human adaptation, where urban networks become living, breathing ecosystems of information and interaction. By exploring the intricate relationships between technology, infrastructure, social dynamics, and urban design, this book unveils the profound ways in which digital innovations are transforming traditional urban paradigms. Readers will discover how city networks are evolving from static infrastructures to intelligent, responsive systems that can anticipate needs, optimize resources, enhance sustainability, and create more inclusive, connected urban experiences. From data-driven urban management to the Internet of Things, from intelligent transportation systems to participatory digital platforms, this exploration offers a visionary perspective on how technology is not just changing cities, but fundamentally reimagining the potential of human collective living.

  Dwell Time - A Memoir of Art...

  What Kirkus describes as a "masterful revelation about life and art imitating each other in maintenance and repair" in a starred review, Dwell Time is an illuminating debut memoir by one of the few prominent Latinas in the field of art and architectural conservation; a moving portrait of a Cuban Jewish family’s intergenerational trauma; and a story about repair and healing that will forever change how you see the objects and places we cherish and how we manage damage and loss. 
   
  Renowned art conservator Rosa Lowinger spent a difficult childhood in Miami among people whose losses in the Cuban revolution, and earlier by the decimation of family in the Holocaust, clouded all family life. 
   
  After moving away to escape the “cloying exile’s nostalgia,” Lowinger discovered the unique field of art conservation, which led her to work in Tel Aviv, Philadelphia, Rome, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Charleston, Marfa, South Dakota, and Port-Au-Prince. Eventually returning to Havana for work, Lowinger suddenly finds herself embarking on a remarkable journey of family repair that begins, as it does in conservation, with an understanding of the origins of damage. 
   
  Inspired by and structured similarly to Primo Levi’s The Periodic Table, this first memoir by a working art conservator is organized by chapters based on the materials Lowinger handles in her thriving private practice – Marble, Limestone, Bronze, Ceramics, Concrete, Silver, Wood, Mosaic, Paint, Aluminum, Terrazzo, Steel, Glass and Plastics.  Through Lowinger’s relentless clear-eyed efforts to be the best practitioner possible while squarely facing her fraught personal and work relationships, she comes to terms with her identity as Cuban and Jewish, American and Latinx.

  Why do millions of people around the world love Scottish dancing?
  What makes it so special?
  
  Heel for Heel is a joyful celebration of all the genres from the centuries-old Highland Dancing to the evolving reels, Scottish Country Dancing, ceilidhs and Step Dance that spread throughout Scotland and beyond. The story mirrors the delight of the guests at 'Mairi's Wedding' going 'heel for heel', whether in a boisterous jig or a graceful Strathspey.
  Cindy Gray, a keen dancer herself, invites you to discover the universal appeal of Scottish dance. She tells the story of Scottish dance through the stories of fellow enthusiasts including Scots at exuberant ceilidhs, Samburu tribesmen learning a giddy 'Eightsome Reel', Canadian children immaculately dressed for 'The Sword Dance' and reelers at glittering balls in Venice, Oman and India. Her amusing anecdotes and illuminating reflections are enhanced by vibrant photographs.
  This book is a MUST for anyone who enjoys Scottish dancing – or who fancies they might – and for everyone drawn to stepping out gaily, 'heel for heel and toe for toe'!
