Urban Environmental Studies -...

Lyric Vale

Urban Environmental Studies is an interdisciplinary field that explores the complex relationship between cities, their natural environments, and the sustainability of both. As the world becomes increasingly urbanized, understanding the environmental challenges and opportunities within urban settings is crucial for creating sustainable, livable cities. This chapter introduces the core principles of Urban Environmental Studies, outlining the essential role of urban ecosystems and their impact on the broader global environment.
Cities, as centers of human activity, consumption, and growth, have a significant effect on the planet's natural systems. The rapid expansion of urban areas, particularly in developing regions, has led to heightened concerns regarding air quality, water management, waste disposal, and biodiversity loss. These environmental issues are exacerbated by factors such as climate change, resource depletion, and social inequality, highlighting the need for integrated approaches to managing urban environments.
Urban Environmental Studies seeks to address these challenges by examining the ways in which cities interact with their surrounding ecosystems. It focuses on how urban areas can mitigate their environmental footprint while enhancing the quality of life for their inhabitants. Central to this field is the concept of sustainability—an approach that promotes the careful use of resources to meet the needs of present and future generations. This includes developing green infrastructure, managing natural resources efficiently, and creating green spaces that benefit both people and the environment.

Psychological Analysis - How to...

Adam Sarhan

Conventional wisdom tells us that people are rational and make rational decisions with their money. But that's simply not true considering most people fail to beat the market. Conventional wisdom also tells us that there are two primary ways to approach the market: technical and fundamental analysis. Again, that is not true because if it were, everyone would be rich. It's obvious that something is missing. Author Adam Sarhan, founder and CEO of 50 Park Investments, developed a new approach, titled Psychological Analysis (PA). Coined by the author, PA teaches you how to make rational, not emotional, decisions with your money and shows you how to analyze both the individual and collective market mindset at a particular time based on the behavior and decision-making of people in the real-world. Psychological Analysis is designed to tip the odds of success in your favor.

Inside the Invisible Cage - How...

Hatim Rahman

In a world increasingly run by algorithms and artificial intelligence, Hatim Rahman traces how organizations are using algorithms to control workers in an "invisible cage." 
 
 
  
Inside the Invisible Cage uses unique longitudinal data to investigate how digital labor platforms use algorithms to dictate the actions of high-skilled workers by determining accepted behaviors, work opportunities, and even success. As Hatim Rahman explains, employers can use algorithms to shift rules and guidelines without notice, explanation, or recourse for workers. The invisible cage signals a profound shift in the way markets and organizations categorize and ultimately control people. 
 
 
  
Unlike previous forms of labor control, the invisible cage is ubiquitous, yet it is also opaque and shifting, which makes breaking free from it difficult for workers. This book traces how the invisible cage was developed over time and the implications it has for the spread of new technology, such as generative artificial intelligence. Inside the Invisible Cage also provides organizations, workers, and policymakers with insights on how to ensure the future of work has truly equitable, mutually beneficial outcomes.
