Synopsis

"Tramway Tales" presents a fascinating journey through the evolution of urban rail transportation, from horse-drawn carriages to modern electric trams, exploring how these systems have fundamentally shaped our cities. The book masterfully weaves together technological advancement, urban development, and social change to tell the story of one of humanity's most enduring transportation solutions.Through carefully researched case studies from cities like Melbourne and Portland, it reveals how tramways have repeatedly proven themselves as catalysts for sustainable urban development. The narrative unfolds across three distinct periods: the initial boom of tramways in the 19th century, their decline during the automotive age, and their modern renaissance as a solution for sustainable urban mobility.What makes this book particularly valuable is its accessible presentation of complex engineering concepts, making it relevant for both general readers and transportation professionals. The author skillfully balances technical details about track design and power systems with broader discussions of urban planning and environmental impact.Drawing from extensive municipal archives and engineering records, the book demonstrates how tramways represent more than just transportation infrastructure—they're indicators of a city's approach to public space and sustainable development. The work concludes with an exploration of future possibilities, including autonomous trams and car-free city centers, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in the intersection of urban planning, sustainable transportation, and technological innovation.

    About Face - How Airway...

    Face size matters! 
    90% of the population reaches adulthood with underdeveloped midfaces and lower jaws. This causes lots of crowding—the teeth, tongue, tonsils, and adenoids are crowded. The nasal septum deviates to one side or the other, ears get congested. The airway is restricted, and the body responds by shifting into the Sympathetic Nervous System. Living in low-level sympathetic mode erodes health. This can contribute to anxiety, headaches, low thyroid, ADHD/ADD symptoms, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and many other common mental or physical health conditions. 
    Dr. Pomerance was part of that 90%. In About Face, she shares her Airway Dentistry expertise regarding face size and health outcomes stemming from years of continuing education, her personal health struggles, and decades of clinical experience, explaining:How facial underdevelopment happensWhat to do to avoid itHow to identify itHow to resolve the underdevelopment to restore health and wellbeing 
    Whether you're a dental professional or simply want to learn more about the subject to improve your quality of life, About Face provides a wealth of information and resources in an accessible, comprehensive format.

    The Life Worth Living -...

    More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle said: "let there be a law that no deformed child shall live." This idea is alive and well today. During the past century, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. argued that the United States can forcibly sterilize intellectually disabled women and philosopher Peter Singer argued for the right of parents to euthanize certain cognitively disabled infants. The Life Worth Living explores how and why such arguments persist by investigating the exclusion of and discrimination against disabled people across the history of Western moral philosophy. 
     
     
     
    Joel Michael Reynolds argues that this history demonstrates a fundamental mischaracterization of the meaning of disability, thanks to the conflation of lived experiences of disability with those of pain and suffering. Building on decades of activism and scholarship in the field, Reynolds shows how longstanding views of disability are misguided and unjust, and he lays out a vision of what an anti-ableist moral future requires. 
     
     
     
    The Life Worth Living is the first sustained examination of disability through the lens of the history of moral philosophy and phenomenology, and it demonstrates how lived experiences of disability demand a far richer account of human flourishing, embodiment, community, and politics in philosophical inquiry and beyond.
