    The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
     
     
     
    Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
     
     
     
    Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.

    City planning is more than just the design of roads, buildings, and parks; it is the blueprint for a society's future. The way cities are planned has a profound impact on the lives of their inhabitants, influencing everything from the air they breathe to their access to resources and opportunities. At its core, city planning seeks to create environments that are not only functional but also sustainable, inclusive, and resilient. In an era where urbanization is increasing rapidly, the importance of thoughtful city planning has never been greater. 
    The planning process involves much more than the physical layout of a city. It encompasses strategies for economic growth, social equity, environmental sustainability, and cultural preservation. A well-planned city can enhance quality of life, boost economic productivity, and provide a sense of community, while a poorly planned city can lead to overcrowding, inadequate infrastructure, and environmental degradation. As more people move into cities every year, urban planners are tasked with creating spaces that are not only livable but also adaptable to future needs. 
    One of the most pressing reasons for effective city planning is the growing concern over environmental issues. Cities are responsible for a significant portion of global carbon emissions, and urban sprawl has led to the depletion of natural resources. Through sustainable urban planning practices, cities can reduce their environmental footprint by promoting energy-efficient buildings, renewable energy sources, and green spaces. Additionally, proper planning can mitigate the effects of climate change, such as flooding and heat islands, by incorporating resilient infrastructure that can withstand extreme weather conditions.

    This account of the infamous asylum is "an excellent record of greed and corruption, but it is also a powerful testimonial to compassion and kindness" (Hidden City). 
     
     
     
    The Quaker City and its hospitals were pioneers in the field of mental health. Yet by the end of the nineteenth century, its institutions were crowded and patients lived in shocking conditions. The mentally ill were quartered with the dangerously criminal. By 1906, the city had purchased a vast acreage of farmland incorporated into the city, and the Philadelphia Hospital dubbed its new venture Byberry City Farms. From the start, its history was riddled with corruption and committees, investigations and inquests, appropriations and abuse. Yet it is also a story of reform and redemption, of heroes and human dignity—many dedicated staff members did their best to help patients whose mental illnesses were little understood and were stigmatized by society. 
     
     
     
    "Webster . . . wrote his book because of his fascination with an abandoned building he discovered in 2002. He wanted to tell the story of Byberry, one he believes many people do not fully understand." —Philadelphia Neighborhoods
