Synopsis

Global infrastructure is at a crossroads. Sustainability and climate-resilience imperatives, new geopolitical headwinds, technology and connectivity issues, as well as the ongoing reconfiguration of global value chains, all call for a rethink in how infrastructure is designed, built and maintained. Leading world economic powers are envisaging new infrastructure plans that could fit in new trade and industrial strategies, with the ultimate goal to increase sustainability, economic competitiveness and resilience. Meanwhile, the use of digital technologies entails new risks for the security of critical infrastructure. How are global value chains changing, and how does this affect infrastructure? How could more resilient infrastructure transform economies? How to enhance the quality and sustainability of new and existing infrastructure? And how to safeguard security in critical infrastructure?

    During the first fifty years of the twentieth century, the United States saw two world wars, a devastating economic depression, and more social, political, and economic changes than in any other five-decade period before. Frederick Lewis Allen, former editor of Harper's Magazine, recounts these years—spanning World War I, the Progressive Era, the Great Depression, World War II, and the early Cold War—in vivid detail, from the fashions and customs of the times to major events that changed the course of history. 
     
     
      
    Politically, the United States grew into its own as a global superpower during these years, even as domestic developments altered the everyday lives of its citizens. The introduction of the automobile, mass production, and organized labor changed the way Americans lived and worked, while innovations like penicillin and government regulation of food safety contributed to an increase in average life expectancy from forty-nine years in 1900 to sixty-eight years in 1950. With the development of a strong, centralized government, a thriving middle class, and widespread economic prosperity, the nation emerged from the Second World War transformed in virtually every way. 
     
     
      
    Richly informative, The Big Change is an indispensable volume charting the many changes that ushered in our contemporary age.

    For over 60 million people, work in America has been a story of declining wages, insecurity, and unsafe conditions, especially amid the coronavirus epidemic. This new and troubling reality has galvanized media and policymakers, but all the while a different and little-known story of rebirth and struggle has percolated just below the surface. 
     
     
     
    On the Job is the first account of a new kind of labor movement, one that is happening locally, quietly, and among our country's most vulnerable—but essential—workers. Noted public health expert Celeste Monforton and award-winning journalist Jane M. Von Bergen crisscrossed the country, speaking with workers of all backgrounds and uncovering the stories of hundreds of new, worker-led organizations (often simply called worker centers) that have successfully achieved higher wages, safer working conditions, and on-the-job dignity for their members. 
     
     
     
    On the Job describes ordinary people finding their voice and challenging power: from housekeepers in Chicago and Houston; to poultry workers in St. Cloud, Minnesota, and Springdale, Arkansas; and construction workers across the state of Texas. An inspiring book for dark times, On the Job reveals that labor activism is actually alive and growing—and holds the key to a different future for all working people.

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are at the forefront of technological innovation, transforming nearly every sector and redefining how we live, work, and interact. These technologies, once confined to science fiction, now power tools and systems that many people use daily—from personalized recommendations on streaming platforms to virtual assistants and advanced data analysis in business and healthcare. 
    The rise of generative AI, such as large language models and image synthesis tools, marks a new era in machine intelligence. These systems can create human-like text, generate realistic images, compose music, and even design products. They're not just mimicking human creativity—they're expanding it, offering new ways for people to ideate and innovate across disciplines. Businesses are leveraging generative AI to automate content creation, improve customer service, and enhance productivity. While the creative potential is staggering, it also brings up questions about authorship, originality, and the future of creative professions. 
    AI is also becoming deeply embedded in everyday applications. Smartphones use AI to improve photos, optimize battery life, and enable voice recognition. In healthcare, AI helps doctors diagnose diseases with higher accuracy by analyzing medical images and patient data. Financial institutions use it to detect fraud and make investment decisions. Meanwhile, retailers personalize shopping experiences by analyzing customer behavior. In essence, AI is becoming the silent partner in many human decisions, making systems smarter, faster, and more adaptive.
