  Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? 
   
   
   
  In Inclusive Transportation, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. 
   
   
   
  Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase.

  Airport Firefighting Command and...

  In an environment where aircraft move with split-second precision… and hundreds of systems operate simultaneously… maintaining command and control becomes the true weapon that protects the airport from chaos the moment a fire breaks out. 
  Airport firefighting is not just water and foam… nor is it only advanced equipment or modern fire trucks. It is a complete leadership system that begins with the mind directing the incident, passes through the command unit that allocates resources, and reaches a response team that knows exactly what to do, where to move, and when to intervene. 
  In this introduction, we step together into a different world… the world of sovereign fire leadership inside the airport — a place where confusion is not allowed, hesitation is unacceptable, and mistakes never get a second chance. 
  In this program, you will learn: 
  How the command and control system is built inside the airport. 
  How the commander receives information and instantly transforms it into decisive action. 
  How operations rooms, control towers, and firefighting teams function as a single unit. 
  How resources are directed, communications are organized, and the golden time of the incident is managed. 
  And how a crisis is controlled in one of the most sensitive environments on earth: a space where aircraft, passengers, fuel, and critical infrastructure all converge. 
  You will explore global models of incident management — ICS, NIMS — and modern command systems used in high-density airports. 
  You will learn how the fire commander thinks in the moment of truth, and how a firefighting plan moves from paper… to precise execution on the ground.

  Written and read by award-winning sustainability expert Ashlee Piper comes this witty, no-nonsense guide to regaining control over your time, consumerist impulses, and financial and mental wellness.

After a decade of fine-tuning, No New Things guides readers through the same revolutionarily simple challenge that has helped thousands of global participants find freedom and fulfillment in just thirty days.The audiobook follows the rise of what Piper calls “conditioned consumerism” and how it sneakily hijacks our time, money, and mental bandwidth, as well as harms the planet. From there, listeners follow customizable daily action items that bring about the ease and richness of a life less bogged down by spending and stuff, without compromising on style, convenience, or fun.Whether you’re a bona fide shopaholic or someone who just wants to buy less and live more, No New Things is the antidote to modern overwhelm.A Macmillan Audio production from Celadon Books.

  The Fall of Rome - The Birth of...

  At its height, the Roman Empire stood as one of the most powerful and influential civilizations in history. Spanning continents, from the windswept moors of Britain to the deserts of Egypt, Rome’s reach seemed boundless. The strength of the empire lay not only in its vast military conquests but in the complexity and efficiency of its administrative systems. Roman law, engineering, and political structure provided a level of organization that allowed a diverse collection of peoples and cultures to function under a single imperial banner. The Pax Romana, a period of relative peace lasting over two centuries, demonstrated Rome’s ability to maintain stability across its vast territories. 
  Roman culture was a dynamic blend of traditions inherited from earlier civilizations and innovations of its own. Latin served as the unifying language, enabling administration and communication across the empire. The arts flourished, with literature, sculpture, and architecture reaching impressive heights. From the poetry of Virgil and Ovid to the engineering marvels of aqueducts and roads, Roman achievements stood as symbols of sophistication. The grandeur of public spaces like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum reflected the empire’s emphasis on civic life and the power of the state. 
  Governance played a key role in the success of Rome. A highly structured bureaucracy allowed the empire to manage its provinces effectively, while a legal system based on Roman law continued to influence Western societies long after the empire’s decline. Though emperors held supreme power, the Senate, magistrates, and various local officials contributed to a layered political system that managed both urban centers and rural territories. Roman citizenship, which could be extended to people across the empire, fostered a sense of unity and shared identity among diverse populations.
