Synopsis

Bridge Collapse Response offers a comprehensive exploration of the critical actions and coordination needed immediately after a bridge failure. It highlights the complex challenges faced by emergency teams, focusing on understanding failure causes, managing crowds, and executing search and rescue through debris. Bridge collapses, though rare, are high-impact events demanding swift, coordinated responses.

 
Did you know that bridge failures have shaped the evolution of engineering standards, with lessons learned from past disasters influencing current protocols? The book uniquely integrates engineering with emergency management, providing a holistic view from prevention to recovery.

 
It progresses from foundational bridge engineering principles and common collapse causes to examining emergency response elements, including assessing structural stability and rescue methodologies. Case studies of past bridge collapses are analyzed, showcasing successes and failures in response efforts. The text also considers emerging technologies like drone surveillance to improve future response capabilities.

    This is a biography of Earthopolis, the only Urban Planet we know of. It is a history of how cities gave humans immense power over Earth, for good and for ill. Carl Nightingale takes readers on a sweeping six-continent, six-millennium tour of the world’s cities, culminating in the last 250 years, when we vastly accelerated our planetary realms of action, habitat, and impact, courting dangerous new consequences and opening prospects for new hope. In Earthopolis we peek into our cities’ homes, neighborhoods, streets, shops, eating houses, squares, marketplaces, religious sites, schools, universities, offices, monuments, docklands, and airports to discover connections between small spaces and the largest things we have built. The book exposes the Urban Planet’s deep inequalities of power, wealth, access to knowledge, class, race, gender, sexuality, religion, and nation. It asks us to draw on the most just and democratic moments of Earthopolis’s past to rescue its future.

    Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton (1874 - 1922) was a polar explorer who led three British expeditions to the Antarctic. 
    During the second expedition, from 1907 to 1909, he and three companions established a new record for the “farthest South latitude,” which was 97 miles from the South Pole and the closest in pole exploration history. Members of his team also climbed Mount Erebus, the most active volcano on Antarctica. For these achievements, Shackleton was knighted by King Edward VII on his return home. 
    A few years later, his ship - The Endurance - became trapped in pack ice and was slowly crushed. The crew escaped by camping on the sea ice, then launching their lifeboats to reach the inhabited island of South Georgia, a stormy ocean voyage of 720 nautical miles. It became Shackleton's most famous exploit.

    The United States has become an almost unrecognizable country—with millions in thrall to conspiracy theories, toxic populism, and the far right edging closer to total power—a dire threat to civil society and democratic institutions. While the MAGA movement was in remission due to Donald Trump's defeat in 2020, the fascist fringes have not just survived but have continued to thrive and burrow into the mainstream. The January 6th Capitol Riot prosecutions have done little to curb their enthusiasm for mayhem. 
     
     
     
    Trump's base in the Republican Party is committed to their candidate like never before. The institutionalization of racist voter suppression and the outdated logic behind the Electoral College means he could take back the White House. Apocalyptic messaging ensures the alt-right, anti-government, anti-LGBT, and white nationalist groups see the next election as a life-or-death struggle and are uniting to back the one person they can all agree on—guaranteeing another chaotic election. 
     
     
     
    In this chilling exposé, Wendling encounters Capital rioters, Covid deniers, QAnon supporters, and Proud Boys and uncovers the roots of a movement that threatens to shatter the foundations of democracy.

    An inappropriate comment drops during your team meeting. What happens next depends on who’s in that room. Allies stand by. Accomplices take action. Which one are you? 
    Seena Hodges has spent decades watching smart, well-meaning leaders and organizations fail this exact test. She wrote this book for everyone who's ever sat frozen in that moment to help them dig into the difficult work of becoming the best, most understanding, and empathetic versions of themselves. 
    Through personal reflections, real-life examples, data-driven strategies, a framework based on engagement and accountability, and coaching questions at the end of every chapter, you’ll develop the confidence to move to action to: 
    leverage privilege positions to challenge norms and create inclusive environments, 
    engage in difficult conversations and listen to diverse lived experiences and perspectives, 
    reflect on language, ways to show up, and the role that organizations play, 
    increase self-awareness around issues of race and racial injustice, and 
    develop an antiracist lens
