  A smooth ride through the golden age of car travel, looking at both its cultural and architectural impact on the world.
  The culture of road travel and the road trip is arguably best reflected in the stationary spots found along the way. Christopher Beanland journeys through these built environments the world over, whose sole purpose is to cater to cars and those who drive them, and examines what makes them so alluring.
  Illustrated with 65 stunning photographs, Architecture For Cars explores everything from the brutalist fashions of listed UK petrol stations to the quirky and colourful drive-thrus found across the US. If you're interested in the autobahn churches of Germany, why Ed Ruscha felt drawn to painting gas stations, or you just enjoy the aesthetics of car-centric architecture across the globe, this book is for you.
  Also included are essays on wider topics such as roadside signs, drive-in malls and retail parks, cars on film, and roads that never were. This latest architectural deep-dive from Christopher Beanland focuses mainly on the 20th century, with an additional optimistic look towards the future: hopefully an electric vehicle-led existence will herald a new, greener 'golden age' for cars.

  Humor - The Joyful Perspective -...

  Humor is a powerful tool that can shape our perspectives, influence our emotions, and improve our well-being. It is more than just a way to entertain or amuse; humor has the ability to impact the body and mind in profound ways. When we laugh, it triggers the release of endorphins, the brain’s natural feel-good chemicals. These endorphins create a sense of happiness and well-being, helping to reduce stress, lower anxiety, and even enhance our immune system. Laughter, in its simplest form, is an emotional release, and it allows us to cope with the difficulties of life more effectively. 
  The power of humor lies in its ability to shift our perspective. When faced with challenges or setbacks, humor provides a fresh lens through which we can view the situation. It encourages us to laugh at the absurdity of our troubles, allowing us to detach from the weight of negative emotions and gain a sense of control over the situation. This shift in perspective is not only liberating but also empowering, as it opens up new possibilities for problem-solving and resilience. Humor gives us permission to not take life too seriously, helping us maintain a sense of lightness even in the face of adversity. 
  Beyond its psychological benefits, humor also plays a vital role in social bonding. It brings people together, breaking down barriers and fostering connection. Shared laughter creates a sense of belonging, helping us relate to one another in meaningful ways. Humor can bridge gaps between cultures, generations, and backgrounds, making it a universal language that transcends differences. It helps us navigate difficult social situations and enhances our ability to communicate effectively.

  Guatemala - High Life Low Life

  Fresh from a night in a Miami jail, Steven lands in Guatemala City, ready for riotous road trips fuelled by booze, cocaine and passionate curiosity about people from all walks of life.
  
  His guide? Antonio, a sweet-natured, streetwise hotel concierge who shepherds Steven through colonial Antigua, the volcanic shores of Lake Atitlán and the untamed beaches of Monterrico. Danger is never far off, but neither are laughs – and there's plenty of both when Steven accompanies Antonio on a visit to his rural home village.
  
  Then there's Anabella, a glamourous, garrulous, middle-aged woman with whom Steven strikes up an unlikely friendship, accompanying her back to the capital with her family. There he mooches an open-ended stay in her gated community, which bristles with armed guards and famous eccentrics.
  
  Froelich's gonzo travelogue is a darkly hilarious, unapologetic plunge into beauty and madness, privilege and privation. With a raw, witty voice, Froelich explores the absurdities of the human condition, never letting truth get in the way of a good story.
