Sinopse

"Green Urbanism" explores how cities can evolve into balanced ecosystems that prioritize human well-being alongside environmental health. It examines the integration of nature into urban design, the use of sustainable building materials, and eco-conscious planning, highlighting the necessity for sustainable urban development to combat environmental challenges.

 
The book emphasizes how innovative architectural designs and urban planning policies can mitigate climate change, reduce pollution, and conserve resources, while also promoting equitable and accessible urban environments.

 
Did you know that green roofs and urban forests can significantly improve air and water quality? Or that mixed-use development can lead to more walkable and livable cities?

 
This book stands out by adopting a holistic, integrated approach to green urbanism, moving beyond individual buildings to examine broader systems. It begins with core concepts like ecological design and social equity, progresses through topics such as green infrastructure, sustainable building materials, and urban planning strategies, and concludes with global case studies, providing a practical guide for creating sustainable, resilient, and equitable cities.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Teen Architect is an inspiring audiobook for young people, parents, teachers, and mentors who want to unlock creativity through architecture. Moshe Katz shows that children and teenagers are already spatial thinkers. They build, imagine, draw, test, question, and invent worlds long before they know professional language.  
     
    This book uses architecture as a tool for confidence, problem-solving, empathy, drawing, storytelling, model-making, and future thinking. It teaches young creators how to move from feeling to symbol, from symbol to shape, from shape to space, and from space to experience.  
     
    Teen Architect is not about pushing children into a profession. It is about helping them discover that the world around them was designed, and because it was designed once, it can be redesigned. Practical, encouraging, and full of possibility, this audiobook gives young minds permission to shape what comes next.

    A one-of-a-kind collection including some never-before-seen photographs of the wild and unforgettable WHA from legendary sports photographer Steve Babineau
    		
    		 
    On October 12, 1972, legendary Boston sports photographer, Steve Babineau, was in attendance for the debut of the New England Whalers. They were taking on the Philadelphia Blazers at the old Boston Garden — and Babs was shooting the action. Fifty years later, he’s still photographing big-league sports events — but this lovingly curated collection documents both his earliest published (and unseen) works and the wild emergence of the colorful, revolutionary, wild, and unforgettable WHA.
    		 
    In an era when rolls of film still had to be changed by hand and cameras were focused manually, when arena lighting was questionable and images had to be captured through the haze produced by smoking fans, Babineau captured it all: the timeless legends who were finally getting paid, the journeymen who finally got a shot at the pros, the 17-year-old who would go on to rewrite record books, the brawls and goals, the glorious ’staches and flows, the highs and the lows …
    		 
    Behind the Lens: The World Hockey Association 50 Years Later has the Golden Jet and the Howes, the teams that seemed to change names and cities as often as some players changed wooden sticks, and even the true origin story of that Wayne Gretzky photo that’s become the million-dollar holy grail for sports card collectors.

    Art History Volume 1 - Ancient Art

    The first volume of Élie Faure’s series History of Art takes the listener on a breathtaking journey to the origins of human imagination. This book traces the birth of the human gaze — from the Paleolithic caves to the colossal statues of Egypt, from Assyria’s winged bulls to the sunlit temples of Greece, and ultimately to Rome, the genius of stone and roads.   
    As a poetic storyteller and visionary historian, Faure reveals that works of art are never mere decoration, but living systems of forces, where form unites with function and idea becomes flesh — art as a common language, the breath of peoples, the memory of the world.   
    The reader moves through caves alive with bison, sun-baked pylons, friezes depicting Panathenaic processions, and Roman arenas where architecture becomes pure will — every page is a scene, every civilization a breath. This book/audiobook offers a sensitive and intellectual key to “see” more clearly: to understand, to love, to compare; to feel the secret correspondences between science, morality, and beauty — up to the Greek moment when man seems to harmonize nature and spirit. A lucid, lyrical epic that dazzles the mind and stirs the irresistible desire to listen further.
