Sinossi

Urban Planning explores the historical roots of modern urban design by examining the architectural principles and urban infrastructure of ancient cities. It reveals how ancient civilizations tackled issues like population density and resource management, challenges still pertinent today. The book uniquely highlights the enduring influence of ancient planning on contemporary urban landscapes. For instance, the grid street layouts, found in many modern cities, were first implemented in ancient Mesopotamia. The book progresses from introducing core urban planning concepts, through case studies of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome, to analyzing specific aspects of ancient urban design. Chapters delve into street layouts, examining grid systems and their impact on traffic flow, and infrastructure, investigating ancient water management. By drawing parallels between ancient practices and modern challenges, the book provides valuable insights for creating sustainable and livable cities. It demonstrates that many contemporary urban innovations have their origins in ancient solutions, adapted over time.

Moments - Detroit Musicman

Gary Spaniola

Playing a black Les Paul through a vintage Marshall stack, mic’d through a tower-high wall of speakers at Detroit’s Cobo Arena feels like you’re flying a 747 with one exception: you’re standing on top of it. 
In this engaging and often humorous memoir, Gary Spaniola gives a behind-the-scenes look into the many aspects of his life. Growing up in the suburbs of Detroit, Gary shares unforgettable moments of his childhood, his rise in the Detroit music scene with his rock band, Bitter Sweet Alley, his career as a record producer earning multiple gold and platinum records, and his obsession with learning that caused him to alienate the music world for years to become a self-taught computer programmer, designing his own automation system and launching his own software company. After achieving multiple software design awards, he once again reignited his true passion for creating music and went on to release three additional solo albums. 
Gary’s storytelling captures the sincerity and humor of the colorful chaos of growing up in a large family, getting his first guitar, performing in front of thousands of people, and sharing the stage with many legendary rock icons. He takes you with him back to the small, seedy venues and up to the major crowd-filled arenas, as well as the countless hours practicing guitar, creating his software, and building his dreams. Gary shares his trials, tribulations, and determination with every career turn. Interlaced in this memoir is Gary’s love for faith, family, and lifelong friends, along with the hilarity and frustration of growing up and finding his way in life.

How to Raise an Art Star

Ara Tucker

Gus Hempelstein had only wanted to change things a little bit. He was about to find out that when you were dealing with Vabeh Gregson Bennett, you had to go big or find another playground.
Morgan and Devon Gregson Bennett are an interracial creative power couple living happily enough in Brooklyn until a freak accident leaves a little girl orphaned in Los Angeles. Setting aside reservations about the price motherhood will exact on their marriage and careers, Morgan and Devon agree to adopt Vabeh, a bi-racial ethnic-hair-products heiress. Vabeh touches down in New York, wearing last season’s fur and on a mission to quickly distinguish herself from the other bold-faced names at her new school, the tony School for Spoiled Kids.
Vabeh’s meteoric ascension as a painter isn’t enough to quell her ambition, so she opens the Walk-In Art Gallery. Soon, she has collectors and classmates clamoring for her attention. All is proceeding according to plan, until her trusted gallerina, Gus Hempelstein, turns in his skinny jeans and defects to open a rival gallery, the Sit Down, backed by Devon’s ex-lover and powerful art world patron, Pim Logan.
Even with a publicist and therapist working overtime on Vabeh’s behalf to protect her art world darling status, Morgan and Devon’s parenting skills are put to the test as the press breathlessly covers their every move.
Will Vabeh crumple under the weight of Gus’s devastating betrayal, or will she dust it off, chalking it up to just another day on the playground?
