Sinopsis

Aztec Urban Planning explores the sophisticated methods the Aztecs used to design their cities, revealing how urban spaces reflected their society's complex structure. Going beyond practical construction, the book argues that Aztec urban planning deliberately expressed political power, religious ideology, and social cohesion. For example, the spatial organization of cities like Tenochtitlan reinforced the Aztec worldview. Intriguingly, the Aztecs developed ingenious agricultural supports, known as chinampas, to sustain their populations, and their transport canals facilitated trade and communication. 

 
The book adopts a holistic approach, integrating archaeological data with historical sources to offer a comprehensive understanding of Aztec urbanism. Beginning with Mesoamerican urbanism's fundamental concepts, it progresses through key components of Aztec cities, such as layout, infrastructure, and ceremonial centers. By examining Aztec urban planning, readers can gain valuable insights into sustainable urban development and the integration of infrastructure with social needs.

From her role as protector of roadways to her power as the bringer of death, she offers us keys for healing. Incorporating her personal experiences with those of her students, Cyndi Brannen weaves a supporting circle around the reader as they start their path towards soulful living, culminating in rebirth.Blending symbolism, transcendent experiences, dreams, and natural magic with sound psychological theories and practices, Entering Hekate’s Cave guides the reader safely through the journey back to the soul.

This collection of poetry explores themes of identity, healing, and belonging through the lens of an Afro-Latinx Queer identifying poet and scholar. 
    “The Hot Glue Gun Chronicles is a flamingassemblage of penetrating verse and poetic musicality. Crooks-Allen’s timely offering, in the tradition of Black queer poets like June Jordan and Pat Parker before them, does not shy away from the straight-up truth. In their words, we might very well locate the keys to our own internal freedom.” 
    - Darnell Moore, author of No Ashes in The Fire: Coming of Age Black and Free in America 
    "What an honor it has been to cultivate this manuscript and elevate the voice of Dr. Ashley Crooks-Allen. I published this book because I believe in its mission- to put together the broken and to create beauty from unexpected pieces. Ashley invites us to revisit subjects we may have fooled ourselves into thinking we'd moved on from- gently saying 'Aht-aht! There's more work to do here.'"
