Summary

Temple Architecture explores the profound connection between religious buildings and the spiritual experiences they foster. Delving into diverse architectural styles across faiths, the book uncovers how specific designs communicate religious beliefs and values. Temples, beyond being mere structures, serve as communal spaces, fostering spiritual connections and collective identity.

 
Did you know that architectural choices, like layout and ornamentation, contribute to the overall sacred atmosphere? Or that understanding the historical context of religious architecture is vital for appreciating its nuances? 

 
This book takes a systematic approach to understanding temple architecture, blending architecture, religious studies, and cultural history. It moves beyond aesthetics to reveal deeper meanings within sacred spaces. The analysis incorporates historical records, architectural plans, and on-site observations, enhanced by visual aids.

 
The book progresses through three parts: introducing core concepts and styles, analyzing designs from different periods and religions, and examining the practical implications for architects.

 
This exploration demonstrates how temple design is not just functional but actively shapes religious experiences, reinforcing the bond between worshippers and the divine.

    The Civic Brand: The Power & Responsibility of Place is a bold and practical book that challenges conventional thinking about city-building, tourism, economic development, and community engagement. Author Ryan Short introduces a new framework for shaping more resilient, equitable, and loveable places that is rooted in identity, values, and a triple bottom line. 
Drawing from years of experience working with cities, counties, and regions across the country, Ryan Short shows how fragmented efforts, siloed departments, and surface-level branding have left communities struggling to grow with intention or preserve what makes them special. The Civic Brand reveals how place branding, when done right, isn’t just logos or slogans, but about uniting people, guiding policy, and building shared civic pride. Blending strategic insight with vivid, often entertaining stories from the field, this book brings to life the challenges and triumphs of real places navigating growth, decline, and identity. 
Whether facing overtourism or decline, rapid growth or disinvestment, division or disengagement, this book offers a bold path forward. It’s a call to city leaders, planners, business owners, developers, and residents alike to recognize their role in shaping place and to do so with purpose. 
The Civic Brand is more than a book, it’s a movement to reimagine how we care for the places we call home.

    This program is read by the author.A darkly comic memoir about being a working creative person in a world that is growing ever more dysfunctional, by acclaimed New Yorker cartoonist and television writer Bruce Eric Kaplan In January 2022, Bruce Eric Kaplan found himself confused and upset by the state of the world and the state of his life as a television writer in Los Angeles. He started a journal to keep from going mad, which eventually became They Went Another Way.The book’s through line traces his attempt to get a television project set up in the increasingly Byzantine world of Hollywood. But as he details the project’s ups and downs, Kaplan finds himself ruminating not only on show business but also on today’s political and social issues, on old movies and TV shows and music, on his family, on his friends, on his past, on his failing heating system, and on all the dead birds thatkeep showing up in his backyard.This hilarious and surprisingly moving book is about life—about art, about love, about alienation, about connection, about ugliness and beauty, about disappointment, wonder, and hope. In short, it is about everything.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
