  In the rapidly urbanizing world of the 21st century, cities have emerged as the defining habitat for human existence—complex ecosystems where built environments, natural systems, social dynamics, and human health are inextricably intertwined. As urban populations continue to expand globally, the relationship between metropolitan environments and human wellbeing has become one of the most critical frontiers in our collective pursuit of sustainable, equitable development. This comprehensive exploration delves into the multifaceted domains of Urban Environmental Studies, Urban Health, and City Livability—examining how the physical, social, and ecological dimensions of urban spaces fundamentally shape population health outcomes, quality of life, and environmental sustainability. 
  The narrative of urban environmental health transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries; it encompasses the intricate connections between urban design, ecological systems, public health infrastructure, and social determinants that collectively define the healthfulness of city living. By examining the complex interplay between environmental exposures, built environment characteristics, healthcare access, and community resilience, this book illuminates how cities can function either as amplifiers of health inequities or as platforms for promoting wellbeing across diverse populations. Readers will journey through the multidimensional landscapes where urban health manifests—from the microscale of indoor air quality and neighborhood walkability to the macroscale of urban heat islands and metropolitan food systems—while exploring innovative approaches that cities worldwide are adopting to create more livable, healthy, and environmentally sustainable urban futures.

  Bizarre Laws & Curious Customs...

  In the UK, we have some bizarre laws that have littered the statute books of our sceptred isle throughout history. Not all of them have been repealed over the centuries. Some of them made perfect sense at the time they were introduced but seen through modern eyes, now appear archaic and draconian. Despite the great efforts of the Law Commission in England and Wales to review and recommend reforms for many of these outdated laws, there are centuries of law that must be painstakingly gone through. 
  As well as some bizarre laws, the UK also has its fair share of curious customs and time-honoured traditions that have been observed for centuries. On the surface, many appear to be nothing more than theatrical pomp and pageantry. However, they are all born from strong rationale. 
  The UK parliament seems to have had a particular penchant for passing laws related to fish and animals, indecency and passing sentences with some humiliating public punishments. 
  This book is a highly entertaining read for anyone who enjoys learning about the more bizarre applications of UK law throughout the centuries, along with some rather macabre consequences along the way. 
  Have you ever heard a bizarre law and thought, that can’t possibly be true? Is it genuine? Was it ever in existence or just an urban myth that became so embellished over time? There are surprisingly, a great many laws still in existence on the statute books today, that would make your jaw drop. Whilst bizarre as these laws may now seem to us, it begs the question, are we in fact, unknowingly breaking these laws on a regular basis? 
  With over 140 bizarre but nevertheless true, laws and customs, you can use this book to satisfy your curiosity about what our ancestors had to contend with over the years, or perhaps as a reference guide for trivia quizzes.
