  City Resilience - Building...

  In an era of rapid urbanization, cities are facing an array of challenges that threaten the sustainability and stability of urban life. From climate change-induced natural disasters to social inequality and economic instability, the vulnerabilities of urban environments are increasingly evident. As the global population continues to concentrate in cities, the importance of urban resilience has never been more critical. Urban resilience refers to a city's capacity to withstand, adapt to, and recover from various shocks and stresses, ensuring the continued wellbeing of its residents and the functionality of its infrastructure. 
  The resilience of urban communities is not just about withstanding external shocks such as earthquakes, floods, or pandemics, but also about the ability to respond to longer-term stresses like climate change, economic fluctuations, and demographic shifts. Cities are complex systems, where the interplay of social, environmental, economic, and technological factors can either contribute to vulnerability or foster the development of adaptive capacities. Building resilience, therefore, requires a multi-dimensional approach that integrates these various aspects, creating a robust foundation upon which cities can thrive despite inevitable challenges. 
  One of the primary reasons urban resilience has gained such prominence is the growing recognition of the vulnerability of cities in the face of climate change. With rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, and heatwaves becoming the norm, cities are exposed to significant risks that threaten public safety, economic stability, and infrastructure. Moreover, rapid urban growth often leads to poor urban planning, inadequate infrastructure, and limited resources to address emerging problems.

  Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain, the Channel Dash, North Africa, Sicily, Dieppe, D-Day, and the fight against the V1 menace—Group Captain Bobby Oxspring saw action in many of the most famous battles of the Second World War. 
   
   
   
  His memoir of time as a Spitfire fighter is the perfect book for fans of First Light by Geoffrey Wellum, Samurai! by Saburo Sakai, and The First and the Last by Adolf Galland. 
   
   
   
  Beginning in 66 Squadron, by the end of the Battle of Britain, he was already an ace with eight enemy aircraft destroyed: three Heinkel 111s, one Dornier 17, one Me110, and three Me109s. He then went on to become flight commander in No. 41 Squadron RAF and later took command of three more squadrons. 
   
   
   
  His memoir, Spitfire Command, is a remarkable account of life as one of The Few, charting his journey through the war, flying all marks of the Spitfire—from the Mk I to the Mk XIV—right through to when he ended operational duty just a week before the war ended. Written vividly, Oxspring provides an authentic insight into the lives of the men who fought in the air. It is a fascinating and inspiring story of bravery, good humor, and sacrifice.

  Now in hiding, a former wiseguy teams up with a veteran true-crime writer to take you inside Brooklyn’s gangland at the height of its violence.   This is the true story of Carmine Imbriale—a gambler, a brawler, a bandit, a bookie, an enforcer. For two decades, Imbriale was a street-level operative in one of the most violent crews in the Colombo Family, and he endeared himself to some of the major figures of organized crime while developing deadly disputes with others. Carmine and the 13th Avenue Boys is the jarring account of his lawless lifestyle culminating in a gang war in South Brooklyn, from which he emerges a survivor.   From his first arrest at fifteem for robbing a Coney Island pimp to surviving multiple assassination attempts, Imbriale offers up dozens of too-good-to-be-true tales featuring some of the most notorious gangsters, including Joe Colombo, Christie Tick, Jimmy Ida, Joe Waverly, Sammy “The Bull” Gravano, Johnny Rizzo, as well as other lions and lackeys of La Cosa Nostra, and details a beef with none other than Greg “The Grim Reaper” Scarpa Sr.   A young streetwise hustler, Imbriale thought he found loyalty, a brotherhood. Instead, he descended into a world of treachery and deceit, where your best friend is your executioner, and no one gets out alive. But no one expected him to become the domino that helped bring it all down.
