Sinossi

"City Councils: How do they work worldwide and why?" explores the critical role of local governance in addressing global challenges. This comprehensive book examines the historical evolution, diverse structures, and contemporary significance of city councils worldwide. It argues that these local bodies are not mere administrative units but dynamic entities crucial for fostering democracy and driving innovation at the urban level.   
The book progresses through three main sections: 1. The concept and history of city councils 2. Their varied structures across different cultures 3. How they adapt to modern issues like climate change and social inequality   
By employing comparative analysis and drawing on a wide range of evidence, the book offers a unique global perspective on urban governance. It challenges the notion of a universal model for local governance, instead emphasizing the importance of context-specific approaches.   
Written in an accessible yet authoritative style, "City Councils" provides valuable insights for students, scholars, policymakers, and engaged citizens alike. It highlights the potential of local governance to shape our urban future and invites readers to reconsider the importance of city councils in an increasingly interconnected world.   
The book serves as both a comprehensive analysis and a call to action for more effective urban citizenship.

    A hopeful memoir about adapting when life doesn't go to plan, redefining family, and creating your own path. 
     
     
     
    One afternoon, Emma Nadler gets a call from her daughter's doctor that changes her life forever. Faced with the realities of raising a child with a rare genetic condition, Nadler must confront her preconceptions of motherhood and her perfectionistic beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Nadler—who also happens to be a psychotherapist—offers a rare window into the unconventional ways she and her family adapt to their improbable path. Every relationship in her life—with herself, her husband, children, friends, and even clients—is reimagined as she navigates the heartbreak and hilarity of her daily life. 
     
     
     
    As she and her husband join the 53 million caregivers in the US, Nadler wrestles to belong in a society that devalues both caregivers and people with disabilities. She challenges the scripts that mothers should be martyrs, or that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love. Nadler illustrates the complexity, grief, and joy of living an unexpected life, all with the wisdom of a therapist, the heart of a loving parent, and the ingenuity of a queer woman who refuses to be shackled by cultural expectations.
