Sinopsis

Bridges, vital components of our infrastructure, demand meticulous engineering and construction. Bridge Construction explores the complex world where structural integrity meets environmental resilience, ensuring these monumental structures stand the test of time. Load-bearing capacity is paramount, enabling bridges to withstand immense weight, while environmental resilience protects against natural forces like wind and seismic activity. This book uniquely combines theoretical knowledge with practical applications, emphasizing the entire lifecycle of a bridge, from design to decommissioning.

 
The book begins by introducing structural engineering basics, detailing bridge types and their strengths. It progresses into material science, examining concrete, steel, and composites under varying conditions, and concludes with environmental considerations like hydrological studies and seismic risk assessment.

 
Case studies of notable bridges highlight design, construction, and performance, offering insights into real-world applications, making it a valuable resource for understanding bridge design and construction.

    A vivid, joyful, moving window onto the life and heart of an American icon. 
     
    In the spring of 2018, Tom Piazza climbed into a 1977 Coupe de Ville with the great singer-songwriter John Prine to write an article for the Oxford American. Their Florida road trip ignited a deep friendship, full of tall tales over epic meals, long nights playing guitar and trading songs, and visits back and forth between their homes in Nashville and New Orleans. Along the way, Prine invited Piazza to work with him on a memoir, with John telling sprawling, often hilarious stories of his youth and family in Chicago and Kentucky, his breakthrough into the national spotlight, his riotous early years in the Nashville country scene, and much more. When Prine died suddenly of COVID in April 2020, that unfinished memoir evolved into an intimate and very personal narrative of the artist's final years. In it, Piazza offers fans an unforgettable portrait of the beloved musician in his late glory―as a boyish cut-up, an epic raconteur, a great American poet, and, most important, a beloved friend.

    The Italian City-States -...

    The Italian city-states emerged as powerful economic, political, and cultural centers during the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance. Unlike the feudal kingdoms of northern Europe, Italy developed a unique system of independent cities, each governed by its own political structure. These city-states, including Florence, Venice, Milan, and Genoa, thrived due to their strategic locations, economic prosperity, and the weakening of feudalism. Their rise laid the foundation for the Renaissance, a period of unprecedented artistic and intellectual achievement. 
    One of the key factors behind the growth of the Italian city-states was the decline of feudalism. In much of Europe, feudal lords controlled vast territories, but in Italy, urban centers gained power as trade and commerce flourished. The weakening of the Holy Roman Empire’s authority in the region allowed cities to assert their independence. Many city-states established their own governments, often ruled by merchant families or oligarchies rather than hereditary monarchs. This shift created a political climate that encouraged innovation, diplomacy, and economic expansion. 
    Geography also played a crucial role in the rise of these city-states. Italy’s position in the Mediterranean made it a central hub for trade between Europe, Asia, and North Africa. Cities like Venice and Genoa developed extensive maritime trade networks, importing luxury goods such as silk and spices while exporting textiles and banking services. The wealth generated from commerce enabled these cities to fund artistic and architectural projects, further elevating their cultural status.

    A spirited dive into the life and career of a performer, writer, and director who dominated twentieth-century American comedy 
     
     
      
    Mel Brooks, born Melvin Kaminsky in Brooklyn in 1926, is one of the great comic voices of the twentieth century. Having won almost every entertainment award there is, Brooks has straddled the line between outsider and insider, obedient and rebellious, throughout his career, making out-of-bounds comedy the American mainstream. 
     
     
      
    Jeremy Dauber argues that throughout Brooks's extensive body of work—from Your Show of Shows to Blazing Saddles to Young Frankenstein to Spaceballs—the comedian has seen the most success when he found a balance between his unflagging, subversive, manic energy and the constraints imposed by comedic partners, the Hollywood system, and American cultural mores. Dauber also explores how Brooks's American Jewish humor went from being solely for niche audiences to an essential part of the American mainstream, paving the way for generations of Jewish (and other) comedians to come.
