Sinopsis

Walkable Streets explores the vital role of pedestrian-friendly infrastructure in creating thriving urban communities. It examines how prioritizing walkability can lead to economic revitalization, enhanced social interaction, and significant environmental benefits. The book highlights that investing in pedestrian infrastructure can boost property values and foster a stronger sense of community. Moreover, walkable streets encourage physical activity, reduce social isolation, and promote inclusivity for all residents, regardless of age or ability.

 
The book approaches the topic by first introducing the core concepts of walkability before delving into the economic, social, and environmental advantages. Drawing upon urban planning studies, economic analyses, and sociological research, Walkable Streets presents a compelling case for re-evaluating urban design priorities. It progresses by offering practical strategies and policy recommendations for creating more walkable streets, acknowledging the challenges and opportunities in implementation, while emphasizing the long-term benefits of pedestrian-focused design.

    Srimad Bhagavatam, ‘The Beautiful Science of God’, is a systematic revelation of the Supreme. In this fifth canto, we learn of God’s greatness, how his supreme will keeps everything in perfect order. We first meet the powerful King Priyavrata, who rose to the heavens like a second sun to dissipate the darkness of night and create the divisions of Bhumandala. Then comes his son Agnidhra, who weds the celestial beauty Purvachitti and begets nine sons, who each become a lord of one of the provinces of Jambudvipa, the great earthly island on which we reside. One of those sons, Nabhi, begets Lord Rishabha, the divine incarnation famous for showing the path of Jada-yoga, practised by highly advanced mystics. Rishabha delivers profound spiritual instructions to his hundred sons, the most famous of whom was Bharat, after whom the earth was named. We hear how King Bharat somehow fell from the pinnacle of spiritual practice and became a deer in his next life. He then took birth as the self-realised soul, Jada Bharat. In a dialogue of astonishing brilliance, Bharat instructs King Rahugana, laying bare the stark reality of material existence and showing us how to conquer the mind and transcend all suffering. After this, the great sage Shukadeva takes us on a fantastic cosmic journey, revealing the structure and intricacies of the universal planetary systems, from the highest regions of heaven down to the paradisical subterranean provinces of Bila Svarga, homes of the Daityas, Danavas and Nagas—dark beings of phenomenal power. Finally, we hear a harrowing description of the many hells that sinful persons reach, essential reading for anyone who wants to get a bit more serious about their spiritual life. In this dramatised retelling, the authors have made this fascinating epic highly enjoyable and accessible to everyone.

    Creating a Nation That Is Fair for Us All 
    Cindy Mathers has experienced firsthand the impact of our traumatised, fragmented and broken systems on First Nations people, and indeed us all. She has been mentored by and worked collaboratively with First Nations people for over two decades, learning through respect, deep listening, and truth telling. 
    After repeated experiences of burnout, she began searching for solutions outside of current systems. Through personal and ancestral healing, extensive research, and study, she learned that the disrespect and disregard of human rights of the First Nations people at the time of colonization created wounds that remain in our collective psyche and are passed down through generations. 
    In DELVE-ing into Cultural Humility, Mathers shares a learning pathway forward, based on respect and deep listening. She created the DELVE formula as a collaborative way to implement change in our nation: 
    ●       Deconstruct—how did we get here as a nation? 
    ●       Explore—the impact of abuse of Human Rights on us all 
    ●       Listen—and learn, with deep presence to the stories of First Nations people 
    ●       Viable—what First Nations-led / collaborative initiatives are working? 
    ●       Energise—what works and fund community-led, place-based initiatives 
    In these pages, you will see a snapshot of what is possible when we engage the DELVE formula. By applying this pathway to her real-life projects and experiences, Mathers has created a succinct and practical resource for those who wish to learn Cultural Humility and become part of creating a new nation that respects the Human Rights of all.

    An outrageous miscellany of serious and light-hearted lies, myths, untruths, fibs and fabrications that tells the tall tale of South Africa.
    The fibs come thick and fast, like a burst sewerage pipe:
    • Why everything we've learnt about Shaka Zulu, 'Africa's Napoleon', is a pack of lies.
    • Back in the darkest of ages (the 1970s!), citizens were told that there were satanic messages if you played some of The Beatles songs backwards.
    • National icon Hansie Cronje was a paragon of virtue, and integrity … until he wasn't.
    • President Nelson Mandela told us that we, as a nation, were 'special'. Turns out we aren't.
    Whether a fabulous fib, an artful con, a doctor's spin, or simply a bald-faced lie, there's something for everyone.
