Sinopse

"Bike Highways" explores the rise of high-speed bike lanes as integral components of urban transportation. It examines how cities globally are adapting infrastructure to embrace cycling, moving beyond mere amenities to establish efficient and equitable systems. These dedicated bike networks aim to reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality, and boost public health. The book highlights that well-designed cycling infrastructure is not just about recreation; it's about improving urban sustainability and fostering economic development by providing affordable transportation options.

 
The book progresses from a historical overview of urban cycling to case studies of successful bike lane networks in cities like Copenhagen and Amsterdam. It delves into technical design aspects, such as route planning and signaling systems, and explores the social and economic impacts, including effects on property values and public health. Data from diverse sources, including urban planning reports and traffic monitoring systems, quantifies the benefits. A unique focus is on the practical challenges and opportunities in building and maintaining these bike highways, offering a realistic assessment of the costs, benefits, and trade-offs involved in implementation.

A New Science of Life

Rupert Sheldrake

**The fully revised edition of Rupert Sheldrake's controversial science classic, from the author of the bestselling Dogs That Know When Their Owners are Coming Home, celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2021!**

After chemists crystallised a new chemical for the first time, it became easier and easier to crystallise in laboratories all over the world. After rats at Harvard first escaped from a new kind of water maze, successive generations learned quicker and quicker. Then rats in Melbourne, Australia learned yet faster. Rats with no trained ancestors shared in this improvement.

Rupert Sheldrake sees these processes as examples of morphic resonance. Past forms and activities of organisms, he argues, influence organisms in the present through direct connections across time and space.Individual plants and animals both draw upon and contribute to the collective memory of their species.

Sheldrake, now Director of the Perrott-Warwick Project supported by Trinity College, Cambridge, reinterprets the regularities of nature as being more like habits than immutable laws. Described as 'the best candidate for burning there has been for many years' by Nature on first publication, this updated edition will raise hackles and inspire curiosity in equal measure.
