  Sustainable urban infrastructure is an essential aspect of modern urban development, aimed at addressing the growing demands of urbanization while mitigating environmental impact and ensuring long-term social and economic prosperity. As the global population continues to shift toward urban areas, the challenges of managing and developing cities sustainably become increasingly complex. In this chapter, we explore the concept of sustainable urban infrastructure, its importance, and the challenges faced by planners and policymakers in creating systems that are both efficient and resilient. 
  Defining sustainable urban infrastructure involves understanding the integration of various urban systems in a way that promotes long-term environmental health, economic vitality, and social equity. This includes transportation systems that reduce emissions, energy-efficient buildings, and green spaces that enhance the quality of life. Sustainable infrastructure also emphasizes the responsible use of resources, such as water and energy, while minimizing waste and environmental degradation. It is not merely about constructing buildings and roads but about creating a holistic urban ecosystem that supports the needs of current and future generations. 
  The importance of sustainable development in urban infrastructure cannot be overstated. With the world’s urban population projected to reach 68% by 2050, cities will face immense pressure to provide housing, transport, and services while also minimizing their carbon footprint and adapting to climate change.

  Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that may occur in people who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a severe accident, a terrorist act, war/combat, or rape or who have been threatened with death, sexual violence or severe injury.PTSD can occur in all people of any ethnicity, nationality, culture, and age. PTSD affects approximately 3.5 percent of U.S. adults every year. An estimated one in 11 people will be diagnosed with PTSD in their lifetime. Women are twice as likely as men to have PTSD. People with PTSD have intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to their experience that last long after the traumatic event. They may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares; they may feel sadness, fear, or anger; and they may feel detached or estranged from other people. People with PTSD may avoid situations or people that remind them of the traumatic event, and they may have strong adverse reactions to something as ordinary as a loud noise or an accidental touch.People with a diagnosis of PTSD are defended and insecure about many things in life. It is essential to create a safe place where people can explore and share their experiences and understand why they are experiencing life as they do to begin the healing process in a therapeutic environment. This book may offer much to promote the healing and growth of those affected by complex trauma.

  If you treat children struggling with mental health conditions such as depression or anxiety, you know that approaches designed for adults do not work with younger clients. ACT for Treating Children presents skills grounded in evidence-based acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help children regulate emotions and cope with the inevitable ups and downs of life, and is suitable for clinicians with no prior knowledge of or training in ACT, as well as seasoned ACT clinicians. 
   
   
   
  Written by an experienced educational and developmental psychologist, this practical clinician's guide outlines a simplified version of the ACT Hexaflex—a key component of this treatment model—called the Kidflex, to help young clients build resilience and psychological flexibility.  You'll find strategies for involving parents in treatment when appropriate, and enlisting them as 'ACT coaches' in the child’s therapy. 
   
   
   
  It can be difficult to know where to start when using ACT for individual therapy with children. That's why the skills in this go-to guide are practical and easy-to-implement, can be done with children in both face-to-face therapy and online sessions, and are simple enough for children to put into practice in any setting—whether it's at home, in school, or out in the world.

  Richard Wurmbrand, born on March 24, 1909, was a Romanian Christian minister of Jewish descent. He was a youth during a time of anti-Semitic activity in Romania, but it was later, after becoming a believer in Jesus Christ as Messiah, and daring to publicly say that Communism and Christianity were not compatible, that he experienced imprisonment and torture for his beliefs. After serving five years of a second prison sentence, he was ransomed for $10,000. After spending time in Norway and England, he and his wife Sabina, who had also been imprisoned, emigrated to America and dedicated the rest of their lives to publicizing and helping Christians who are persecuted for their beliefs. He wrote more than eighteen books, translated into more than 60 languages, the most widely known being "Tortured for Christ." He founded the international organization, Voice Of The Martyrs, which aids Christians around the world who are persecuted for their faith. Wurmbrand died on February 17, 2001. Recording obtained and published by Rick Sheridan.

  A witty, inspiring reckoning with the ancient Greek and Roman myths and their legacy, from what they can illuminate about #MeToo to the radical imagery of Beyoncé.The picture of classical antiquity most of us learned in school is framed in certain ways -- glossing over misogyny while omitting the seeds of feminist resistance. Many of today's harmful practices, like school dress codes, exploitation of the environment, and rape culture, have their roots in the ancient world.But in Antigone Rising, classicist Helen Morales reminds us that the myths have subversive power because they are told -- and read -- in different ways. Through these stories, whether it's Antigone's courageous stand against tyranny or the indestructible Caeneus, who inspires trans and gender queer people today, Morales uncovers hidden truths about solidarity, empowerment, and catharsis.Antigone Rising offers a fresh understanding of the stories we take for granted, showing how we can reclaim them to challenge the status quo, spark resistance, and rail against unjust regimes.
