Sinossi

Bicycle Cities explores how urban areas can thrive by prioritizing cycling through strategic urban planning. It argues that transitioning to bicycle-centric urban planning involves a comprehensive shift in urban design, policy, and culture, not just installing bike lanes. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as how bicycle infrastructure can boost local retail sales and property values while reducing carbon emissions. It also emphasizes the importance of protected bike lanes, dedicated bicycle highways, and secure bicycle parking facilities. The book takes a holistic approach, integrating practical guidance with theoretical insights, and examines successful case studies like Copenhagen and Amsterdam to demonstrate the benefits of bicycle urbanism. By providing data-driven analyses of bicycle ridership and cost-benefit evaluations, the book offers a roadmap for cities seeking to become bike-friendly. It begins by introducing bicycle urbanism and progresses through analyzing successful cities, focusing on practical infrastructure design, and exploring the economic, health, and environmental impacts of cycling. The book's unique value lies in its synthesis of practical guidance with theoretical insights, making it an invaluable resource for urban planners, policymakers, and cycling advocates seeking to create more sustainable and livable cities. Aligned with the genres of Politics, Architecture General, Architecture, the book also uses visual elements like maps and photographs to showcase innovative bicycle infrastructure design.

UFOs - Myths Conspiracies and...

John B. Alexander

A never-before-heard firsthand account of a government insider's experience on the cutting edge of UFO exploration; includes a new afterword"Forget everything you think you know about UFOs - this insider's account exposes the reality... Packed with top grade information, insightful analysis and fascinating anecdotes, Alexander's interesting and controversial book sets the gold standard for titles on this subject." –Nick Pope, author of Open Skies, Closed Minds"Changes the playing field for both true believers and skeptics alike. Alexander strongly warns, be careful what you wish for when asking for presidential intervention. Success could set the field of ufology back decades." --George Noory, host of Coast to Coast AMWhile still on active duty in the U.S. Army during the 1980s, Colonel John B. Alexander, Ph.D. created an interagency group to explore the controversial topic of UFOs. All members held Top Secret clearance. What they discovered was not at all what was expected. UFOs covers the numerous cases they saw, and answers questions like:• What was really in Hanger 18? • Did a UFO land at Holloman Air Force Base? • What happened at Roswell? • What is Majestic 12? • What is the Aviary? • What does the government know about UFOs? • What has happened with disclosure in other countries? • Has the U.S. reverse engineered a UFO? • Why don't presidents get access to UFO info? UFOs is at once a complete account of Alexander's findings, and a call to action. There are no conspiracy theories here—only hard facts—but they are merely the beginning. Foreword by Jacques F. ValleeIntroduction by Burt RutanCommentary by Tom Clancy
