  State of Disaster - The Failure...

  Natural disasters and the dire effects of climate change cause massive population displacements and lead to some of the most intractable political and humanitarian challenges seen today. Yet, as Maria Cristina Garcia observes in this critical history of U.S. policy on migration in the Global South, there is actually no such thing as a "climate refugee" under current U.S. law. Most initiatives intended to assist those who must migrate are flawed and ineffective from inception because they are derived from outmoded policies. In a world of climate change, U.S. refugee policy simply does not work. 
   
   
   
  Garcia focuses on Central America and the Caribbean, where natural disasters have repeatedly worsened poverty, inequality, and domestic and international political tensions. She explains that the creation of better U.S. policy for those escaping disasters is severely limited by the 1980 Refugee Act, which continues to be applied almost exclusively for reasons of persecution directly related to politics, race, religion, and identity. Garcia contends that the United States must transform its outdated migration policies to address today's realities. Climate change and natural disasters are here to stay, and much of the human devastation left in their wake is essentially a policy choice.

  The Urban Poor - Socioeconomic...

  Urban poverty has emerged as one of the most pressing social and economic issues of the modern world. As the global population increasingly shifts toward urban centers, the face of poverty is no longer limited to rural areas. Cities, which were once seen as hubs of opportunity, now grapple with growing disparities between the rich and the poor. The urban poor live in environments that offer limited access to basic services such as housing, healthcare, education, and employment opportunities, making it difficult for them to escape the cycle of poverty. 
  The rapid pace of urbanization, especially in developing countries, has led to the creation of sprawling slums and informal settlements where millions of people struggle to survive. These areas are often characterized by overcrowded living conditions, inadequate infrastructure, and limited access to clean water and sanitation. As cities expand, they fail to provide adequate housing for their increasing populations, and the urban poor are forced to live in substandard conditions with few opportunities for upward mobility. 
  Urban poverty is not just about a lack of income; it is about a lack of access to the resources and services that are essential for a decent quality of life. The urban poor are often marginalized and excluded from the formal economy, finding themselves in low-wage, insecure jobs or relying on informal employment. This lack of stable income exacerbates their poverty and limits their ability to meet basic needs such as food, healthcare, and education.

  Featuring a foreword by Billie Jean King.
  Since the turn of the century, women's tennis has established itself as one of the world's most unpredictable sports. With 36 different Grand Slam champions from 2000 to 2024, upsets have become the norm and underdog triumphs are almost guaranteed.
  These young winners are not all serve bots or baseline bruisers hailing from the tennis academy system. Instead, their origin stories differ considerably. A generation of Czech talent eclipsing the richest tennis nations; child prodigies like Coco Gauff modelled by her parents; Kim Clijsters defying the odds to become a comeback champion after giving birth; and Emma Raducanu crafting a coaching rotation system to achieve her fairytale in New York.
  This book maps out the complex, remarkable blueprints followed by champions from across the globe, as told by those in their inner circle, and explores what this generation of women can tell us about the future of the game.
