Sinopse

Pedestrian-Friendly Cities explores the crucial role of walkability in modern urban planning, arguing that prioritizing pedestrian-centered design enhances public health, environmental sustainability, and community revitalization. It challenges the car-centric planning of the 20th century, which led to sprawling suburbs and a decline in walkable neighborhoods, and demonstrates that consciously designing for pedestrians can significantly improve urban life.

 
Cities were historically pedestrian-friendly, offering lessons for today's urban planners seeking to create more livable spaces. The book examines design strategies like mixed-use zoning and traffic calming, presenting case studies of successful pedestrian-friendly cities. It demonstrates how prioritizing walking can lead to longer, healthier lives for residents and stronger community bonds.

 
By integrating architecture with public health considerations, the book offers a holistic perspective, emphasizing that creating walkable cities involves more than just sidewalks; it requires a fundamental shift in urban planning philosophy. Beginning with foundational concepts, the book progresses to analyze specific design strategies, concluding with a practical guide for implementing pedestrian-friendly principles.

 
It addresses the interconnectedness of urban design, individual well-being, and environmental sustainability, making it a valuable resource for urban planners, policymakers, and community advocates aiming to create thriving, resilient urban environments.

    Treaty Justice - The Northwest...

    In 1974, Judge George Boldt issued a ruling that affirmed the fishing rights and tribal sovereignty of Native nations in Washington State. The Boldt Decision transformed Indigenous law and resource management across the United States and beyond. The case also brought about far-reaching societal changes, reinforcing tribal sovereignty and remedying decades of injustice. 
     
     
     
    Eminent legal historian and tribal advocate Charles Wilkinson tells the story of the Boldt Decision against the backdrop of salmon's central place in the cultures and economies of the Pacific Northwest. In the 1960s, Native people reasserted their fishing rights as delineated in nineteenth-century treaties. In response, state officials worked with non-Indian commercial and sport fishing interests to forcefully oppose Native actions. These "fish wars" spurred twenty tribes and the United States government to file suit in federal court. Boldt pointedly waited until Lincoln's birthday to hand down a decision recognizing the tribes' right to half of the state's fish. The case's aftermath led from the Supreme Court's affirmation of Boldt's opinion to collaborative management of the harvest of salmon. 
     
     
     
    Treaty Justice weaves personalities and local detail into the definitive account of one of the twentieth century's most important civil rights cases.

    Homeschooling your children can be a compelling experience that will shape them in powerful and lasting ways. It’s a choice that allows you to create a learning environment where your children feel safe, respected, encouraged, and valued. It also allows them to explore their interests more deeply while enabling you to introduce them to subjects of your choosing and safeguard them from the biases of the public school system. 
    They will reliably receive the one-on-one attention they deserve, which means they’ll never feel left behind or too far ahead (and aimless or bored as a result).  
    With scheduling flexibility comes the freedom to take your kids on vacations where and when you want to, as well as ensure they get the quantity and quality of sleep essential to healthy development, energy levels, and overall well-being.  
    For these reasons (and even more not covered in this book), I can confidently say that homeschooling is a vastly superior option for most people.  
    If you’re undecided about the best decision for your family, know that you want to homeschool but are feeling intimidated, or want to learn more about the benefits of the homeschooling lifestyle, I wholeheartedly encourage you to keep learning and researching.  
    Remember that when it comes to homeschooling, what’s right for your family might not be for another… the lessons, topics, schedule, and style are yours to choose; they can be tailored to meet the needs, goals, and beliefs of your beautifully unique family.
